- Replace your old thermostat with one of the newer digital models that can be set to automatically lower the temperature at bedtime and raise it in the morning. Some can be programmed to raise the setting several times a day.
- Make sure your thermostat is located on an interior wall. Keep sources of heat, like lamps, stereos and televisions, away from the thermostat. They will interfere with the thermostat's ability to measure the room temperature accurately.
- To more closely monitor your thermostat, place an inexpensive thermometer next to it. Use the thermometer to gauge the accuracy of your thermostat.
- Clean your thermostat to keep it accurate. Just remove its cover and blow away accumulated dust.
