Energy conservation makes sense -- and it's in both the national interest and your own financial interest. The Better Business Bureau has compiled a list of 66 ways to save energy painlessly by developing _ a home energy budget. Here are some of them: Lower your thermostat to between 65 and 68 degrees during the day and to 60 degrees at night. If this is uncomfortable, turn it up one degree and put on a sweater or an extra blanket. If you have vour furnace serviced once a year it will run more efficiently and you may" save about 10 percent in fuel consumption. Keep the filters clean. Ifix heating duct leaks with adhesive tape or duct-sealing tape. If your home . is well insulated, you'll save on heating bills: Caulk and weatherstrip doors and windows. Install storm windows or tape clear plastic film to window frames and get the same effect. Put in six inches of insulation in your attic. If you do this yourself, remember to wear gloves, mask and protective clothing. When you fix meals, there's 3 a lot you can do to, save energy without eating cold sandwiches every night: *Use pans that fully cover the heating element when cooking on top of your range. Also use a tight-fitting lid.
