Winter is on the way!

The weather is getting colder and winter is on the way in a couple of short months. Many people use a lot of electricity during the months of winter and it can get extremely expensive. Below are some tips to reduce your monthly electric bill as the weather gets colder:

• Turn down your thermostat during the day. By turning down the thermostat when you are not home is a great way to reduce your electric bill. You can get a thermostat installed that is programmable so you can set the heat to turn on before you get home so that our home is nice and cozy for when you arrive.
• Close your blinds at night and open them during the day. During the day this will allow heat to come in from the sun. This will take some of the workload off of your furnace.
• Turn off the lights when they are not in use. During the winter, it can become more of a habit for people to leave the lights on (as it is generally darker). Turning the lights off when you leave the room will save quite a bit of energy.

These are just a few ways to keep your electricity bill down during the winter. If you are having electrical troubles in your home please feel free to contact us!
