Yeah I figured that already. I tried turning down the thermostat but now 1) I'm cold and 2) the bills and usage are still high.
Any other Suggestions?
Hi,
Do an energy audit to find out where you are using/losing heat. Chances are, you are losing heat through the walls because your insulation is sub-par or damaged. Did you have the same problem last year? If not, and nothing has changed, your heating system may just need a tune up. You can also try changing your furnace filter to help increase circulation.

I'd turn down the heat. Use more blankets or something, maybe wear a sweater. Where in the midwwest do you live? I live in St. Louis. Its been pretty mild if you ask me.
