Tips to Lower Your Monthly Electric Bill
Add Insulation — A well-insulated home requires less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature. Consider adding insulation or checking the existing insulation in your home.
Replace Air Filters — Dirty air filters make your AC unit work harder, increasing power consumption. Replace your air filter regularly to keep your system running efficiently.
Lower Water Heater Temperature — Your water heater might be set hotter than necessary, using more power than needed. Lowering the temperature can save you money.
Get a Programmable Thermostat — A programmable thermostat lets you control when and how much power you use to heat or cool your home, helping to reduce your power bill.
These are just a few ideas — there are many ways to save on your monthly power bill.
Hope that helps!
