Not only is it enjoyable and healthy to be outdoors in the beautiful, sunny days of spring, but you’ll save money on things like television and computer energy costs.
Showering at night can cool you down and allow your hair to dry naturally without the aid of a hairdryer or other electric appliance. Give it a shot!
If you want to save on “phantom power,” unplug electronics that are on standby or plug them into a power bar. Turn the power bar on when you need it and off when you don’t!
If you decide to cook a hot meal, use a propane gas stove or other outdoor grill. You’ll keep your house air-conditioned while enjoying the classic barbeque flavor of spring and summer.
Adjusting your temperature can save you up to 10% annually on energy! Simply program your thermostat warmer when you’re asleep or away. Aim for 8 hours a day in the “warm” zone.
If you set your thermostat to be warmer at night, lose the blankets and simply use a sheet while you’re sleeping. You’ll experience the same home comfort with a lower price tag.
