Heating Prices are About to Go Up! Save with Energy Efficient Replacement Windows

Experts predict that heating bills will go as much as 54% for Winter 2021 which is a terrifying thought for many Wisconsin homeowners.  Here are some facts about how Americans heat their homes:

• Nearly half of US homes are heated with natural gas
• Around 41% are heated with electricity
• 4% use heating oil
• 5% use propane for heating

Here are some predictions found by U.S. News for heating increases:

• Energy costs for natural gas heating could go up 30% from last year, in the Midwest, this could go up to nearly 49% higher than 2020-2021
• Electricity heat costs could go up around 6%
• Heating oil could increase by 43%
• Propane would have the greatest increase but this estimate hasn’t been listed yet

For many Wisconsin homeowners, this is a scary thought especially as we experience increases in costs for essentials like food.  If Wisconsin experiences another Polar Vortex, this could put many Wisconsin residents into a debt they aren’t prepared to pay.
