Save Money on Cheaper Electricity

Here are some very easy steps you can take to keep your electricity bills down.

Get Yourself an Electricity Monitor

It's amazing really how we take for granted such little effect like leaving a light on for a few hours, or putting your electricity equipment on standby overnight (naughty naughty!).

The problem for most is our electricity bill arrives, we pay through the banks but we don't sit and allocate how much you spend on each appliance, and work out ways to lower your electricity bill.

To help you keep track of your electricity usage on a daily basis you can now invest in an Electricity Meter. These meters help you to monitor your electricity useage in your home. Put one of these monitors in your home for a few days and see if anyone dares leave a light on, or items on standby for longer than necessary!

To some it may seem a hassle to keep having to track your electricity use to try and lower your electricity bill - but if you are serious on saving money off your electricity bill this is one of the best ways to do so.

You can find a range of Electricity Monitors at Amazon for between £30-£40

Turn off Standby - Automatically!

We all leave our electric products on standby. Mainly TVs, DVDs, Satellite / Cable boxes etc... without really knowing how expensive this is to us.

If you don't have an electricity monitor (see Tip 1) it will be difficult to know just how much of your monthly or quarterly electricity bill is made up of items on standby.

It's not easy always easy to remember to take items off standby, and usually plug sockets behind televsions stands do not help either.

What if you could program your electricity supply to turn off your tvs, dvds etc... during the night and take off standby - well with a Standby Energy Kit it's possible to put a timer on your plug socket to cut off the electricity to that socket between certain hours of the day or night!

It is estimated that an average 10% of your electricity bill is made up of items left on standby. Work out that amount in your next bill and within a few months a saving device like this costing around £20-£30 could essentially pay for itself!

Amazon do a range of Energy Saving Kits

Fill Your Kettle Sparingly

Kettle's are power hungry but we many of us fill our kettle's up each time we fancy a cuppa.

If your cup holds 250ml of water, by filling the kettle you could be filling up to 8 times this much each time you boil!

Not only will it save money it means you get your bew much quicker too!

Tumble Dryer or Natural Warmth

Clothes washed, out of the washing machine and in to the drier - but it does not have to be.

Tumble dryers are one of the most electricity hungry kitchen items you will own. Before you decide to load the tumble dryer take a look at of the window and see if natures tumble dryer is on.

Take your clothes outside and hang them out to dry in the sun. Not only will it give your clothes an extra airing, but will help save money on your electricity bill.

Compare Electricity and Gas Prices and Save

If you think your gas and electricity prices are too high, and bills arrive each month greater than last month's it may be time to shop around.

There are a few main electricity comparison websites on the internet which will help you compare electricity prices and find the cheapest for you. It's not always about price, you have to ensure the tariff is suitable for your circumstances too.
