Fall can be a great time to master the grill. A slow cooker or Instant Pot are also good alternatives to your stove and use less energy.

 
Simple Tips to Prepare for Winter
  • Flip fans:  Running fans clockwise in the winter helps push warm air down into the room to use heat more efficiently.
  • Get a tune-up:  Have your heating system serviced regularly to keep it running efficiently.
  • Seal leaks:  Check for leaks around doors and windows where warm air can escape. Use caulk and weather stripping to seal any openings.
  • Trim trees:  Cut back branches near your roof to avoid damage from ice and snow, and clean your gutters to avoid water damage during a freeze.
  • Test detectors:  Test your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and change their batteries each year.
