Answer:

Dropping the thermostat from 70 to 68 degrees (21.1 to 20 degrees celsius) saves about 5% on heating costs.

Explanation:

  • Lowering the thermostat is near the top of any list of money-saving tips.
  • The U.S. Department of Energy estimates you’ll save between 5 and 15 percent on your electricity bill if you lower your thermostat by 10 to 15 degrees for an eight-hour period.
  • For every degree drop in the temperature, 3% of the heating cost is saved.
  • Here, since there is a 2-degree drop in temperature, there will be a 5% saving on the heating costs.

Hence, 5% of the heating cost is saved.
