Those solutions are usually ignored, but it actually saves you a substantial amount of money and those savings can be used to improve your house in the long run.

I’m an advocate of using the sun of drying my clothes, as it dries real nice and smells fine to boot!

With the other parts of the house covered with energy bill savers, I focus my effort on showers, given that I have my whole family in the house.

I hear you loud and clear Dan. Our kids were in the shower for what seemed like hours (may be a bit of an exaggeration) and something had to be done. My Mum used to have a timer when we were kids as there were 5 of us and as you can imagine we used a lot of water. As an adult and the one paying the bills I think it’s a genius idea ~ one that works! ]]>

We get the 2 larger bills as well in the peak of summer and winter. Every bit counts towards lowering the cost though. We built our house with high ceilings but invested in ceiling fans, zone ducted air and great insulation so it does help to keep costs down. Everything is so expensive these days. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment MichelleAnn. ]]>

Great tips! I don’t know why but I never even thought of using a timer for the kids. They are in the for ages. I can feel the money running down the drain. ]]>

No one believes our electricity bill until I show them:-) We’ve looked into solar panels and would still be paying a hefty price each quarter for electricity (so we’re told) due to the amount we use. We live in a rambling place that has high ceilings and old fashioned vents – two in each room so heat and cold escape, we have reasons not to block them up. We usually have two very high bills during the height of summer and winter as it is mostly the heating and cooling that hikes up the electricity. We live rural so don’t have access to a large amount of providers, however they are mostly the same as the electricity tariff is regulated, it just depends on what discount the provider will give (not a great deal of difference with each provider). Our council rates are extremely low so we try not to complain (too much). ]]>
