❄️As recognized by Ottilie Blackhall in a recent piece for Homes & Gardens, "During winter, we usually focus on keeping our homes and apartments warm and energy bills low. But what if you don't have control of your thermostat?" 🔉MD Energy Advisors' very own Christine Ciavardini said "turn down the temperature of your hot water heater to 120 degrees Fahrenheit (48.8 degrees Celsius) as recommended by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). "Most gas water heaters are set to 140 degrees. Every ten-degree reduction in temperature can save up to five percent on gas water heating costs." 📌For more tips, check out the interview here: https://bit.ly/3ANZIHR. #interview #HVAC #winter #MDEnergyAdvisors #MDEA
