According to the United States Department of
Energy, heating and cooling accounts for about 56% of the energy
use in a typical U.S. home, making it the largest energy expense
for most homes.[1]
With the Vornado VH2 whole-room heater, you can reduce the
amount of money you spend on heating your home by following
these helpful energy saving tips:
Instead of heating every room in your home to
72˚, set the household thermostat as low as possible and use a
Vornado VH2 to warm the room(s) you’re using. In fact, for
every degree you lower your thermostat; you could save up to 4
percent on your energy costs.
Set the
household thermostat even lower at night and use a whole-room
heater, like the VH2, in the bedroom since it safely warms
an entire room and is whisper quiet.
Keep your home thermostat and central heat
setting fairly constant since frequent changes use more energy
by causing unnecessary on-and-off cycling. If you need
additional heat in a room, use a whole room heater to supplement
the home heating system.
Close doors to unoccupied rooms or areas that
are isolated from the rest of the house. Also close vents to
direct warm air into other areas of the house.
Open draperies and shades on south-facing windows
during the winter to allow sunlight to enter the home. Close
them at night to reduce the amount of cold air seeping in from
cold or drafty windows.
