Make an even larger impact

Use awareness of heating and cooling systems to augment your energy savings and reduce your school’s ecological footprint.

Tips:

  • In the winter, close blinds at the end of the day to keep the heat in. In warmer months, close blinds in the afternoon to keep your classroom cool.
  • To make sure your system has proper cold-air return, keep school vents clear. Watch for books covering window vents and posters blocking wall vents.
  • Air flow within a building can affect how much energy is needed to heat it and keep it cool. Keeping outside doors closed as much as possible can ensure your school energy levels stay consistent.
