Tips for Lowering Your Energy Bill
Use less energy and save more money with simple, small changes around your home or business.
Lower your thermostat.
Install a programmable or smart thermostat to better control energy costs.
Consider a cold wash.
Switching your temperature setting from hot to cold can cut energy use in half for washing one load.
Make Your Refrigerator Run More Efficiently.
Clean the coils yearly and set the temperature to 38°F to conserve energy effortlessly.
Keep ducts and vents clean.
Also, replacing the filter in your furnace and AC about every three months will help the heating system last longer.
Swap out your shades seasonally.
Light-colored window coverings reflect the sun's energy, while darker ones absorb it and release heat.
Use your dishwasher wisely.
Run full loads, avoid special cycles, and air-dry or towel off clean dishes.
