Energy saving advice from Dalec

Although recent predictions have indicated that we’re slowly coming out of a recession, many of us are still finding things tight and are always on the look out to find ways to cut down those ever-increasing energy bills.

Despite the fact the cost of paying for our energy has come under very close scrutiny over the last year or so, and energy companies have been encouraged to make their tariffs easier to understand, searching out the best deals can prove to be a real minefield.

Simple ways to cut costs

However, if you’re looking for ways to cut down on your energy bills there are lots of straightforward things you can do that can help to reduce costs. Although you might imagine that leaving the TV on standby overnight isn’t going to make much of a difference, the energy that’s used over the course of a year can really mount up. When combined with the energy used by leaving games consoles on, washing machines, microwaves etc, and the amount of wasted energy is significant. Try to get into a routine of switching everything off when you go to bed at night; it only takes a couple of minutes to do and could save pounds on your electricity bill.

LED light bulbs offer another excellent way to save money and although many of our clients are deterred the initial cost of buying the bulbs, they really are the most energy efficient source of lighting available and over time can help you make big savings on your bills. We’re happy to provide advice on LED lighting and if you’d like to find out more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
