Best Money Saving Tips
Looking for ways to save money by saving energy or water? The following practical tips will help you cut your energy bill and your water bill significantly. Small efforts add up.
Check out these money saving tips:
- Use cold water for cleaning as much as is possible. You’ll save money on heating hot water.
- Check your home for leaks often, especially leaky toilets, running toilets, and leaky showerheads or faucets. Leaks waste a lot of money and water!
- Install water-conserving showerheads.
- Insulate your tank water heater and your pipes to keep water hot after it has been heated.
- Lower your tank water heater’s baseline temperature to 120 degrees F. You don’t need the water to get hotter than this (your dishwasher has a built-in temperature booster to get dishes clean) and you’ll avoid getting scalded.
- Turn off or at least down your water heater when you leave for vacation.
- Run cold water when you run your garbage disposal. You’ll save energy and protect your disposal.
- When handwashing dishes in the sink, plug up the sink (or wash inside a dishpan) so you don’t waste hot water.
- When it comes time to get a new hot water heater, invest in a tankless water heater. You’ll save money on energy and never have to wait for water to heat up (or waste gobs of water running the faucet or shower, waiting for the hot water to travel from your tank to the point of use.) Plus tankless heaters last twice as long as tank heaters, so you’ll put off having to buy a new one for about ten years.
- Install low flush toilets.
- Water your lawn early in the morning or late in the evening, when less water will evaporate. You’ll soak your lawn or garden more quickly, delivering more water in less time.
