The document discusses ways for individuals to save on home energy costs during times of high prices. It suggests that small savings from multiple energy efficient behaviors can significantly reduce electricity bills. Some recommendations include weatherstripping doors, turning down the thermostat when not home, changing furnace filters regularly, replacing old lightbulbs with fluorescents, turning off lights and electronics when not in use, and using plastic window films or curtains to prevent heat loss. Implementing several low-cost solutions together can meaningfully cut household energy expenses.

1. We are all looking for new and even the most optimistic among us realize that things may change for
some time. We've been here before, we've seen rising prices, unemployment and foreclosures - but for
many of us, the problem becomes more individualized. What can we do to preserve, maintain the roof
over our heads clean?
Home energy costs are high monthly fees for all of us in this time of year. Australians spend over 120
billion dollars a year, heat, cold, light, and live in our house. It is about 21 percent of the national total,
and many families can save 20-30 percent of their electricity bills at home.
Small savings can seem pointless when we ponder the big picture, but many small economies will
actually reduce your bills. Things are falling around you but you know that you actively take control of
your own expense. Then look at some energy saving small.
Do you feel the project in or around the doors? Do you have weather stripping around your door? Fill
the body of the screw is the best, but you can buy self-adhesive, if you're not practical. Fix the upper
horizontal part of the previous two sidebars.
Turn down your thermostat by 5 degrees as you go to bed or when you go out and nobody will be home.
Change your furnace filter to allow more efficient operation. the old bulbs are more expensive than
fluorescent tubes. Buy fluorescent bulbs use less energy when they come for sale. Replace the batteries
immediately, but keep the old parts.
Turn off lights when not in space. Despite a general public opinion that it is cheaper to leave a bulb on
and off site, the fact is not. Another waste of energy amazing is when we leave our TVs, computers, etc.
to sleep at night. It uses the power.
coatings in the plastic windows to prevent heat loss. You can buy a type of plastic film for windows that
act as a double glazing. You may not like this in their living room windows, but apply in a place where I
can. Do not go directly on the glass, reach a double-sided tape around the frame, then glue the plastic
film for that. The small pocket of air between the glass and plastic film acts as a double glazing.
On sunny days, let the sun heat your home. At night, close all blinds and curtains. Try closing heavy
velvet curtains at their doors at night. Cold glass radiates a lot!
