How to save on your energy bill

Switch off your electrical appliances

It has been estimated that you could save £55 a year by turning off your appliances when they aren’t in use.

Turn off your lights

Make sure to turn off your lights when you leave a room.

This could save you around £25 a year.

Be careful with washing and tumble drying

If you use your washing machine less frequently on 30 degree cycles, instead of higher temperatures, you could save £29 a year.

And by just putting your clothes on a clothes rack, you could save a whopping £60 a year.

Keep well insulated

Effective insulation of your water tanks, radiators and pipes could save you £50 a year on your bills.

Cut that shower time

If you shower for a max of four minutes, you could save £70 on your energy bills
