Save Money On Your Energy Bill With These Simple Changes Around The House

With winter in full bloom and the days getting darker, you’re probably blowing up your energy bill. There are a few simple things you can do to cut that bill down to size.

The ideas here are pretty simple, but implementing them can save you a bundle on your bills:

  • Audit which electronics you use, then put some on a timer and unplug any that don’t need to be powered on all day.
  • Switch your lights over to LEDs and remember to turn your lights off when you’re not around.
  • Keep all your tech that can’t be turned off on a separate outlet so you don’t accidentally shut them off.
  • Check that your vents are open and circulating air like you want them to.
  • Set your ceiling fan to rotate clockwise to better circulate heat.
  • Double-check your thermostat schedule to make sure it’s running as needed.

Combined, all these tips should help cut down your heating bill cost.
