It is now autumn and quite cold I think. The heating in our house is set to 19c but I am still cold! What is it set to in your house? Is it reasonable to turn the heating up a bit do you think?

How can save on my (gas) heating bill in my 2-bedroom apartment?

July 25th, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Other - Home Garden
TopLessOne 1 asked:


I live alone this winter is frigid! But is $214 a reasonable monthly bill? I don’t think so. I run the heat at about 75 at night and turn it down to 65 during the day. I used to turn it off for the day, but the heating bill didn’t seem much lower. The windows seem OK. And we have a a sliding patio door, but I rarely go out there, esp. in the winter. Can I cover this door somehow? What else can I do to save money?

Ms. Kitty to the rescue! asked:


Is my mother in danger of carbon monoxide poisoning??
My mom put an air conditioner in her apartment and instead of the back of it being outside she has it in a small room. I told her that carbon monixide might build up in the house. Is this dangerous???

blocking vents in central heating system?

July 22nd, 2009 by admin | No Comments | Filed in Other - Home Garden
29323935 asked:


to reduce the electrical bill on the heating for the apartment, i was thinking of blocking part of the vent that is not helpful to heating up the place i want. (hallway for instance) and i’m planning on using hockey tape and paper. will that create any dangerous back flow or other problem that i should be aware of?
just to make some things clear, there is no shutter on the vent, it’s the types that is on the wall not the floor.
it’s a baseboard heater, so i really can’t find any shutter or any other mean to close it.

Is there a window air conditioner that when fan mode with the vent open, blows 100% outside air?

PrimeTime asked:


I recently purchased a window air conditioner. I realized that when I open the vent and just put it on fan mode, it doesn’t really take in much of the outside air.

homebuyer asked:


A house we are considering to purchase has radiant heating. I’ve never seen it before and am wondering if it is a reason to pass on this house. I read up on how it works, but have not found any info on how it compares to other heating systems such as gas or electric.
