That's what Marie-France Dubois of Laval said after receiving her ENERGY WISE Home Diagnostic personalized recommendations report. This is what else she had to say.
Our house is fairly old. I did the questionnaire to get a better idea of what that was costing us
in energy.
Then we got the recommendations report, which helped us understand the breakdown of our energy
consumption and get an accurate idea of our biggest expenses.
One of the things we found out was that heating was rather expensive. I really appreciated the
estimated potential savings included in the report.
Lower your heating bill!
Opt for electronic thermostats, like Marie-France and thousands of other Quebecers.
We replaced all the thermostats in the house with electronic ones. It's great, because the temperature indoors is nice and even. They're incredibly precise and keep the house really comfortable.
If you choose programmable electronic thermostats, you'll have access to several levels of programming and will be able to set the temperature you want, in
manual or automatic mode, based on
- blocks of time defined according to your needs;
- the temperature you want
- at night or during the day;
- when you're out or away.
Turn up the savings!
Every eight-hour period for which you program the temperature to be 3°C lower will cut your heating bill by as much as 4.5%. Be smart and save!
