Now do you want to know where all that heat goes....

Here are a few tips to help you reduce your power costs, help you save energy and encourage you to have a warmer, drier and healthier home

1. Check the setting on your hot water cylinder - reset to 55oc

2. Repair broken pipes - a damp underfloor worsens respiratory illness

3. Turn off appliances at the wall when not in use

4. Dry your clothes outside, not in the clothes dryer

5. Wait until you have a full load of clothes to wash - use cold water when possible

Having your home insulated will help keep your home cool in summer and warmer and drier in winter.
