12 Home Energy Saving Tips

Turn off the lights when you leave the room!  How many times do you hear yourself saying this each day?  And for good reason. The energy bills, electrical and gas, can be up to half the monthly costs of owning a home. Keeping the home warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and supplying all the power for the many technology devices, is a challenge for Ontario families. 

Here are some simple energy saving tips that can help reduce your monthly energy bills without sacrificing comfort, and help the environment along the way.  Each month you may only save a few dollars, but over the year, they can add up.  

1. GET THE FAMILY INVOLVED
This might not be the tip where you will see direct savings, but getting the whole family involved in the challenge to save energy will make your job easier and see better results. Show them the energy bills!  It will be a life lesson for your kids to help prepare them for the reality of owning a home, and it will give them incentives to work together towards a common goal; maybe take that dream family vacation! 

2. SMART THERMOSTAT
It has been shown that installing a smart thermostat can save 10-15% on heating and cooling costs, varying depending on individual energy usage and region.  Typically the initial cost of the thermostat with a return on investment of about 2 years. Reviews show that homeowners are investing in smart thermostat to enjoy the long term energy saving solution as well as the added benefit of being able to monitor the usage more closely.

WINDOWS CAN HELP REDUCE ENERGY COSTS WHEN MANAGED PROPERLY

3. SOLAR CONTROL WINDOW FILM
Install solar control window film on windows that get a lot of sun to help reduce up to 70% solar heat.  Additional benefits of solar window film are the UV protection and glare reduction which all homeowners to leave their drapes and blinds open more often.  Natural light during the day will help reduce the need to turn on lights.

4. OPEN & CLOSE WINDOWS
Open windows in the cool of the day (early morning and evening) during summer months to let in fresh air and reduce the need for air conditioning.  Make sure to close them up before the day becomes too hot.
