5 Ways to Save on Heating This Christmas Season

Winter feels magical—right up until the heating bill arrives.

The good news? You don’t have to sacrifice comfort to save money. With a few smart adjustments and the right tools, you can lower heating costs while keeping your home warm and cozy throughout the holidays.

Below are five simple but powerful strategies to help you save this Christmas season. Some rely on classic home-efficiency tips, while others use modern smart technology to cut waste automatically.

1. Seal the Leaks and Strengthen Your Insulation

Heat can escape from your home faster than you might imagine. A small draft around a window or a poorly insulated attic can cost you a surprising amount every month.

Experts estimate that up to 25 percent of a home’s heat can be lost through gaps, cracks, and weak insulation—essentially trying to keep soup hot in a sieve.

Here’s what you can do:

• Add weatherstripping to doors

• Use draft stoppers on windowsills

• Seal cracks with caulk

• Hang thick curtains for nighttime insulation

• Upgrade attic or wall insulation if possible

2. Practice Energy-Smart Habits

Not every solution requires new technology. Sometimes small habits make a meaningful impact.

Try combining these simple practices:

• Wear warm layers before raising the thermostat

• Use rugs to warm cold floors

• Open curtains during the day to let sunlight in

• Close curtains at night to trap heat

• Keep doors closed in unused rooms

These tips may seem small, but together they make a noticeable difference. And when paired with smart heating solutions—like Kelvin’s scheduling and zone control—the savings compound quickly.

3. Heat Only the Spaces You Use

Now, let’s talk about solutions that make a real difference.

Kelvin isn’t just another space heater you plug in and forget. It’s a premium smart infrared heater designed to give you maximum comfort without the inflated cost.

Old heaters often still work—but they use more energy than they should. If you’re using an outdated convection heater, furnace, or radiator, you’re likely paying more than necessary.

Infrared heaters are a great alternative. They’re up to 30 percent more efficient because they warm objects and people directly, not the surrounding air. That means:

• Faster warmth

• Less wasted energy

• Lower long-term heating costs

Upgrading to efficient heating is one of the best investments you can make. Modern systems don’t just provide warmth—they help you understand and reduce your energy usage month after month.
