Heating and cooling are by far the greatest energy users in the home, making up around 40% of your electric bill.
Other big users are washers, dryers, ovens, and stoves.
Electronic devices like laptops and TVs are usually pretty cheap to run, but of course, it can all add up.
The United States Department of Energy reports that homeowners can save anywhere between $100.00 and $200.00 each year by unplugging devices not in use.
Typically, an item drawing a single watt of energy costs about one dollar to power annually.
Some ways to save on and lower your electric and utility bills include.
Turn off all your appliances.
Turn your heating down a notch.
Take a shower.
Cook efficiently.
Keep your fridge & freezer cool.
