Want to save energy at home? It is so important for you to really understand how your energy consumption affects your usage levels – and ultimately, your bill. Not living efficiently costs valuable money – and quite frankly, it’s easy to adapt. So, we thought we would let you in on 5 ways that can help you to save energy:
2. Get rid of those draughts
Unless you live in a new home, draught spots are very common, especially in the cold. Invest in draught excluders for windows and doors – they can make a big difference to the temperature of your property, helping you to save money on heating during the winter months!
3. Close the curtains
Opening and closing the curtains can help you keep the warm in and out, helping you to save energy on your bills! In the winter, keeping curtains and blinds down will keep the cold air out and stop the warm air escaping! On the flipside, to keep the warm air out, keep windows open but blinds and curtains closed during the summer to ensure the house stays cool!
4. Keep it constant
When you have the heating on, consider keeping it on a lower temperature full-time as this can be more energy efficient than switching it on and off throughout the day. Also during the warmer months, adjust the thermostat to an even lower temperature to maximise your energy bill and save energy.
5. Don’t forget to turn off
Turning of the lights as you leave the room and only putting them on when you enter a room will help you to reduce your energy costs and save £££’s! If you are leaving you house for a long weekend or a holiday, make sure to turn off those lights, as well as the heating and unplug all electrical devices from their sockets – think kettle, microwave, the TV!
So what are you waiting for?! The sooner these small changes are made, the sooner you save valuable money whilst helping the environment.
