# Lower the temperature
You could lower your heater’s default temperature setting from the standard 140 degrees to 120 degrees. The drop of 20 degrees will not impact your supply of hot water but will surely help bring down your energy expenses by a noticeable margin.
# Insulate your heater and pipes
The loss of heat can also be a reason for your heating system to work harder or longer than it ideally should. Insulating your water heater and pipes will help keep maximum heat within your system, which will reduce both the amount of energy and time consumed by your heater to do its job. Look up Havertown hvac maintenance companies who can help you insulate your heater and pipes in the right places.
# Use a water heater blanket
A water heater blanket is a wraparound insulation sheet made of fiberglass, foil or denim that will ensure your heater maintains a consistent temperature, thereby saving you energy and money. You could learn more about this energy-and-money saving idea by contacting any local ‘heater repair newtown pa’ company.
