Cut Electricity Consumption

By Steve Brodie

Every month finding the money to pay for all of our prior electricity usage to ensure we get power for the next month, can be very annoying. Reducing the utilities bill is a serious measure that we have at our finger tips. Well share some tips and tricks on how to do just that.

First of all its a good idea to discuss the importance of saving electricity with your family. If they help to save electricity at home you could give them rewards of a kind that suits them. Make suggestions like turning the lights out when they leave the room, or shutting the curtains on a cold day to help keep the heat in. Also, you could remind them that in shutting off all appliances not being used, if even for five minutes between use, their seemingly small efforts can add up to a chunk of saving!

Learning to be smart with power can save you loads in the long term. Replacing any incandescent bulbs you currently have with fluorescent lights or CFL bulbs will get you started in those savings.These types of lighting use so little power that they end up using a lot less electricity.

Buy energy saving gadgets from your supermarket that monitor power intake of the entire house, this will give you control over what electricity you are spending your money on.

Most of us assume our rise in electricity bills are due primarily by the amount of electrical appliances we have in our homes these days. The truth of the matter is that its the way we use our gadgets that cause our bills to be so high, rather than the amount of them we have in the home.

Take a step in the right direction and only use the appliances we tend to use on a daily basis as seldom as possible. Dont use the washing machine until the washing basket is filled to the top. The air-conditioner should be kept at low or minimum high temperature. Try to remember to turn off your computer monitor when its not in use. It consumes so much power yet takes a second to switch it back on.

Lastly but not least, we suggest that in order to significantly cut your electricity consumption bill, read the energy saving guide at our site. It has got some of the best ideas on how to create your energy in the home and genuinely get energy for free for your appliances.

By using energy from renewable sources we not only help our planet we also save lots and lots of our money in the process. Imagine never getting another electricity bill ever again! - 29939
