• Set your house’s thermostat
to 78 degrees when the house is
occupied and the low 80s when no
one is home. A programmable ther-

to off-peak evening hours
• Close off unused rooms by
shutting down air vents, turning
off window air conditioners and
closing doors.
• Run kitchen and bath ex-

the house of unwanted odors and

• Keep blinds, shades and
drapes drawn during the hottest
part of the day.
• Clean or replace air condi-
tioner filters regularly.
