If you use electric heating, your Salt River Project winter bill can be 2-3x your summer bill. Even homes with gas heat see increases from running furnace blowers, supplemental space heaters, and longer lighting hours. Heat pumps are more efficient than resistance heating but still increase winter electricity use significantly.
Holiday lighting, cooking, and having guests can add 10-20% to your Salt River Project bill during winter months. Working from home during cold weather means your heating system runs all day instead of just evenings. Shorter days also mean more lighting hours.
Lower your thermostat by 2-3°F and use warm clothing indoors. Seal drafts around windows and doors with weatherstripping. Use a programmable thermostat to reduce heating when sleeping or away. Ensure your heating system has clean filters and is properly maintained. These steps can reduce your Salt River Project winter bill by 15-25%.
