Fortunately, with a few simple measures, you can reduce your gas consumption without sacrificing comfort. Below you will find 7 practical tips to reduce gas consumption in winter.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>1. Lower the thermostat by 1 degree<\/strong><br\/>Every degree less saves an average of 5 to 7% on your heating costs. You will hardly feel the difference, especially if you put on an extra sweater. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>2. Only heat the rooms you use<\/strong><br\/>Turn off radiators in rooms that you rarely use. Also close the doors so that heat is not spread unnecessarily. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>3. Lower the heating at night<\/strong><br\/>At night or when you are not at home, it does not need to be 21 degrees. A night setting of 15 to 16 degrees is usually sufficient. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/parte.be\/en\/blog\/energy\/how-to-bleed-radiators-for-lower-energy-consumption\/\" type=\"post\" id=\"1650\">4. Bleed your radiators<\/a><\/strong><br\/>Radiators with air in them heat less efficiently. By bleeding them annually, you increase efficiency and consume less gas. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>5. Keep radiators clear<\/strong><br\/>Do not place furniture or curtains in front of radiators. Heat must be able to spread freely throughout the room. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>6. Insulate where possible<\/strong><br\/>Even small interventions help:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Draught strips on windows and doors<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Thick curtains<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sealing door gaps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>This way you lose less heat and the boiler does not have to work as hard.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>7. Maintain your boiler<\/strong><br\/>A well-maintained gas boiler works more efficiently and consumes less gas. Regular maintenance is not only legally required but also beneficial in the long run. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><br\/>Reducing gas consumption in winter does not require large investments. By heating smartly, limiting heat loss, and maintaining your installation properly, you can significantly lower your gas usage. Small adjustments make a big difference to your energy bill on an annual basis.  <\/p>\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Smart heating starts with the degree you don't use<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-dashed\"\/>\n<div id=\"block-simple-banner-block_6a6d0aaa011c902a24e1ca110971eda9\" class=\"block-simple-banner\">\n    <div class=\"bg-bg-inverse-base rounded-tl-[32px] rounded-br-[32px] rounded-bl-[164px] rounded-tr-[164px] overflow-hidden flex flex-wrap md:flex-row items-stretch\">\n        \n        <div class=\"w-full md:w-1\/2 flex flex-col justify-center p-8 md:p-12 md:pb-20 bg-bg-inverse-base inverse\">\n            \n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left block-cta\">Work with Parte<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Will you also choose Parte?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"p-subtitle subtitle-light\">At Parte, you get the best of both worlds: the personal approach of a local team that knows your building, and the strength of a professional group.
