The recent spell of good weather means most people will have reduced the amount of time their heating has been on and taken advantage of the higher temperatures to dry clothes on the washing line, rather than using a tumble dryer or popping them on an airer in front of a radiator.While these are great for helping reduce energy usage and hopefully keep gas and electricity costs down, it’s important to remember that every household is still paying a daily standing charge, which they can’t influence as this is set by their supplier.However, there are some steps everyone can take as temperatures get warmer that could help keep additional costs to a minimum.
The team at www.onlinemoneyadvisor.co.uk have outlined six simple, cost-effective tips to try to help everyone lower their energy bills over the coming months.
A large proportion of the money you spend on your energy bills goes towards heating your home.With summer just around the corner and the weather gradually getting warmer, many people will keep their heating on for shorter amounts of time, lower the temperature or switch it off completely - especially as the cost of living continues to rise.Turning your heating down, even by just one degree, will really make a difference if you stick to it all year-round, helping you shave potentially hundreds of pounds off your annual energy bill.Adjusting the temperature on your fridge/freezer is a simple and cost-effective tip for saving energy in your home, that many people easily overlook or forget to carry out.Your fridge should ideally be kept at a temperature of about 3-5 degrees celsius, while your freezer should be set around -18 degrees celsius in order to work optimally and without using unnecessary amounts of energy.
