I got a few tips to help you reduce your electric bill this winter.
1. Turn down the heat in your home.
2. Turn off lights when they're not in use.
3. Set your thermostat to 68 degrees F and above.
4. Use energy efficient light bulbs.
5. Use the right appliances for your needs (think about how much water or electricity you need for your dishwasher or clothes washer).
6. Insulate your house with foam boards and weather stripping around doors and windows.
7. Invest in an energy monitoring device that tells you what's going on inside your home when it's freezing outside (this will help you figure out where the leaks are).
8. Install a programmable thermostat that allows you to set different temperatures during different times of day.
9. Keep an eye on how much money you spend on utilities each month
10. Ask your utility company about rebates.
11. Consider installing solar panels.
12. Consider installing geothermal heating.
13. Check out local utility companies' programs for rebates, tax credits, and other incentives that may help lower your electric bills even further and learn about rebates for installing solar panels or wind turbines on top of that!
