Tips for Saving Money on Electricity

1. Tips for Saving Money on Electricity Thanks to school break, your kids now spend their days watching TV and playing video games. The A/C is working overtime to cool down your house while the lights, appliances and water fixtures get extra use as well. This can often be a shock once you receive that energy bill; the excess power usage often makes the cost skyrocket. The kids deserve the vacation, but do you deserve the higher bill? Of course not! A homeowner knows when a bill is too much, and Custom AAA Fix-It knows a few ways to reduce it. We asked our expert technicians to provide tips on cutting down the energy bill and saving money on electricity. Use Fans and Low Power Cooling Air conditioning is essential, but using it constantly drives up the utility bill. Personal fans give you a refreshing breeze throughout your day without using a lot of energy. Use a ceiling fan to cool down entire rooms without fattening up the energy bill. Evaporative coolers can cut down tremendously on A/C usage, and their energy efficient designs consume only 25% as much power. Turn Off Power When Not in Use One of the simplest ways to save energy is turning off power when not needed. Turn off your computer as soon as you’re done to stop power consumption. Turn lights off when you are the last one to leave a room. Unplug electronics from your walls when fully charged or not in use. Inspect Your A/C System If you’re not using your A/C as much, but energy costs are still high, then there may be a problem with your AC system. Have a professional technician diagnose the problem with your A/C, and stop losing money from a malfunctioning system. In general, you should get an AC inspection at least once a year. Go Outside The outdoors can be your natural A/C. In the morning when it’s cool – open the windows or take the family out for a walk. Turn off as much electricity as possible when leaving the house. Trading indoor cooling for a pool, water park or lake is a great way to save money and have family fun. Use Energy Efficient Appliances Your own appliances can take a toll on the bill, why not find some alternatives? Replace your light bulbs with Energy Star certified bulbs for maximum energy efficiency.
