Here is a look at what they are suggesting
– Close curtains and blinds at night
The Government says that by closing curtains and blinds you can help stop warm air escaping through windows and reduce heating costs, especially if radiators are situated below the windows.There are apps such as Utrack by Uswitch, which is free, and allows you to track your hourly energy use over days, weeks, months or years if you have a smart meter.
They suggest blocking gaps around windows, doors, chimneys and floors that let the cold air in and warm air out.They also suggest window film, a form of temporary secondary glazing which helps stop heat escaping through glass.Switching to energy efficient bulbs, such as LEDs, could save you up to £55 a year, the Government says.
