3 Ways to Reduce Your Energy Bills This Winter
The last thing you want is to throw away cash on your energy bill this winter – especially if you don’t have to. Use these tips to bring your bill down a notch.

3 Ways to Reduce Your Energy Bills This Winter

Check out these energy-saving tips:

  • Pre-program your thermostat
  • Use warm water in the laundry
  • Invest in new appliances

Here’s a closer look at each tip.

#1. Pre-program your thermostat

Programming your thermostat to lower by 10 to 15 degrees when you’re asleep or away from home, over an eight-hour period, can reduce your yearly cooling and heating expenses by about 10%.

#2. Use warm water in the laundry

Do laundry using only warm or cool water; it can reduce your per-load energy usage by half.

#3. Invest in new appliances

When it’s time to replace your water heater, washer, or dishwasher choose energy efficient models. EnergyStar dishwashers, for example, are required to use just half the gallons of water per cycle that older models use.
