Reduce Electricity Bill

How to reduce Electricity Bill

Switch from Lightbulbs to LED:

Fluorescent bulbs may be more expensive initially, but they are definitely worth the investment. A single standard incandescent lightbulb can cost the same to operate as six to 10 fluorescent bulbs and the fluorescents last about 10 times longer.

It is more better to replace all lightbulbs with LED lights. LED is more efficient and consume less energy. Another positive of LEDs is that they don’t contain any mercury.

Benefit from Solar Technology:

The most effective way to lower your electric bill is very likely by going solar. Sure, you have to pay for those solar panels, but they are cheaper (in the long run) than electricity. The average middle-class family that goes solar using a solar leasing model is projected to save $700 a year, according to one recent study.

Switch off supply when not in use:

Unfortunately, most of us keep things plugged in for hours or even days between the times we actually use them. This includes TVs, computers, DVD players, DVRs, Xbox and Playstation consoles, our air conditioning or heating (when we are out), toaster ovens, and much more. These things are then using electricity even when you are not using them. Simply unplug these things when you aren’t going to use them for several hours or perhaps even days.

Replace old Fridge with new:

If your fridge is get old it is consuming more energy with passage of time. Try to replace with new and save energy.

Air Conditioner Use:

Use air conditioner when too hot and raise higher set point on thermostate when all room is cooled. Change the filters of your air conditioner and furnace monthly. Keeping the air flowing and clean is good for your lungs and will help maintain peak efficiency.
