How can you help? Wish list from local nonprofit organizations, Jan. 11
As temperatures plummet and heating costs are projected to rise, keeping a warm home -- for less -- is a premium. Professional service technicians say clean furnace filters are key to circulating heat.
"Filters can get dirt and debris built up -- hair, pet hair -- things like that on it, which will, in turn, block air flow, which will lead to your furnace shutting down because it gets too hot," said Tom Willamowski of Great Lakes Heating, Air Conditioning, and Electric.
How often you replace furnace filters depends on the filter size you use. Willamowski says a one-inch filter should be changed monthly. A five-inch filter sometimes lasts a year. Prices range between a few dollars to $100 for a quality media filter.
He also recommends dusting off air ducts.
"Duct cleaning is good because it helps take care of dust and debris that builds up," Willamowski said.
Also requiring attention are whole-house humidifier drains. Over time, lime and calcium build up inside. Pouring common household cleaners, vinegar and bleach, down the drain helps keep lines clean.
"Vinegar will go down the drain and take care of calcium and lime buildup," he said. "Bleach will help with mildew buildup with water flowing through."
A clean humidifier, he says, makes homeowners more comfortable in the house by adding moisture to the air.
Annual heating system tune-ups address these issues, some of which require a professional eye. Right now, Willamowski is handling more calls related to furnace issues.
With heating costs expected to rise 10.5% this winter, spotting air drafts helps you keep the heat inside -- and cash, too. Draft "dodgers," plastic windows, or door film minimize the problem.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.
Two viewers reached out to Action 9 in less than one month, and are both upset with the same air duct company.
Action 9 investigator Jason Stoogenke gets a lot of complaints against air duct businesses. Hiring an air duct cleaner can be tricky, because typically customers don't know what it looks like inside the ducts. So when it's all over, customers don't know if they got their money's worth. John Varvel hired Indoor Air Solutions. "We don't make a lot of money -- tight budget," Varvel said. He put $900 down, then he changed his mind and asked for a refund. "Extremely frustrating, Varvel said. We cannot afford to lose $900." Around the same time, another customer said IAS did the work, but that a line started dripping and that he couldn't get the company to come back, that customer said in an email to Action 9. Action 9 reached out to IAS by email and they said they did nothing wrong and refunded Varvel his $900. IAS also said the performed the other job well and the customer cussed and threatened their crew. IAS stopped emailing Action 9 after an interview was requested. The Better Business Bureau gives IAS an "F" rating, partially because it's had more than 20 complaints against the company the last three years. Action 9 asked Sam Galphin how he would go about getting his ducts cleaned.
A statewide, nonprofit that follows home issues recommended him as a neutral expert.
"Pull down some grills, stick your cellphone up there and take some pictures and look at them," Galphin said. He said to hire a contractor with a good record, stay with the crew while they work and check the ducts yourself again to see if they look different than before. Galphin said some build up is normal, so don't let a company pressure you to buy a full cleaning.

Action 9 investigates complaints against duct-cleaning company

Beaumont, Texas From Entergy Texas -- Old Man Winter is on the move with Southeast Texas expecting its coldest temperatures of the season before the week ends. It may be tempting to crank up the thermostat to compensate, but doing so can mean significant increases to your energy bill.
When the thermostat is turned up, energy use increases and bills rise, too, said Vernon Pierce, Entergy Texas vice president of customer service. Heating and air conditioning make up more than half of most energy bills. The best way to manage your electric usage during cold weather is to keep your thermostat set on 68 degrees. Each degree warmer will increase your bill by about three percent.
Other ways to stay comfortable and save energy when temperatures drop include:
*Conserve hot water. Heating water for cooking, cleaning, laundry and bathing is the second-largest energy user in homes. Insulating blankets for electric water heaters are inexpensive and readily available at home improvement stores. Also, set your water heater thermostat to 120 degrees or medium.
*Seal air leaks and duct work. In the South, leaky ducts waste more energy than any other single item. To stop the loss, duct work should be made airtight everywhere ducts attach to vents, each other and the heating/cooling unit. Use mastic as the preferred choice to seal these locations or foil tape. Some do-it-yourselfers can handle this job. Others may want to hire a professional.
*Think long term. Making your home more energy efficient is a good move for lowering bills all year round. Start with Entergy Texas Entergy Solutions program. A wealth of information, tips and even DIY videos are available to help homeowners improve their homes energy efficiency.
Entergy Texas provides electric service to more than 426,000 customers in 27 counties. It is a subsidiary of Entergy Corporation. Entergy is an integrated energy company engaged primarily in electric power production and retail distribution operations. Entergy owns and operates power plants with 30,000 megawatts of electric generating capacity, including nearly approximately 10,000 megawatts of nuclear power, making it one of the nations leading nuclear generators.
Entergy delivers electricity to 2.8 million utility customers in Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas.
