1. If you use a gas hot water heater:
- turn down the temperature
- wash your clothes in cold water
- shorter showers
- use the water miser feature on your dishwasher and your washer
2. Saving on your central heat
- turn down the thermostat, put on a sweater
- seal the leaks
- increase the humidity in your home, dry air feels colder
- if your family isn't home in the daytime, a programmable thermostat will really help--but even someone is there all day, you can use one to save while everyone is asleep
- most ideas for saving on your electric bill that have to do with heat will also help with your gas bill
3. If you have a gas clothes dryer:
- hang the clothes up to dry, if you hang them indoors in the winter, that will help with the humidity in the house also
- wear fewer clothes--if it ain't dirty, you can wear it again. hang it up to air instead of washing it
- if you wash two smallish loads, or hang up part of the clothes but want to dry other pieces--save the first load and dry it with the second load
