Tips to Conserve Electricity
While there are some big changes that you can make to your home that will save on electricity, like upgrading to energy-efficient appliances or installing solar panels, there are also many smaller changes and tricks that can be employed to conserve energy. Some tips to reduce energy usage include:
Switch to LED Lighting
LED bulbs use much less power and last longer than conventional light bulbs and they are available in a variety of colours and styles.
Optimize Operation of Dishwashers and Laundry Machines
Most electrical providers decrease the cost of electricity during off-peak hours, like early morning or nighttime. Running heavy power-using appliances during this time, rather than at peak hours, can save you a lot of money. Also, only run these appliances when you have a full load to reduce the time that they are operating.
Keep Your Thermostat Steady
Drastic increases or decreases in temperature create an unnecessary electrical strain. Keep your thermostat steady within two or three degrees.
Use a Thermal Wrap on Your Water Heater
Water heaters are one of the biggest electricity consumers, so insulating your water heater to prevent heat loss will reduce electricity expenditure.
Clean and Replace Filters
Air filters on appliances and ventilation gather dust and debris, the more clogged the more power it takes to get air moving. Clean the filters on your dryer, furnace, fridge, and air conditioner to help them use less electricity.
Turn Off the Lights:
Just turn off the lights whenever you leave a room. Leaving any electrical device or light on when you are not in the room is wasteful.
Insulate Doors and Windows.
Heat can move through doors and windows, even when closed. Be aware of open doors or windows and install the proper weather stripping and insulation to minimize heat loss.
Read a book or get outside.
What we do for entertainment can greatly affect our electricity bills. A television consumes more electricity than a reading lamp. Pursuing hobbies that do not use as much electricity will also typically help you to stay healthier!
