Energy saving tips!

Here are few more simple energy saving tips, hopefully you can trim a little bit off your energy use.......and your bill!
• Be sure to use the vacation setting or turn off the water heater when you are
out of town.
• Fix leaky faucets – that little drip can add up to 95 litres of water per
faucet per month, and cost you 7 kWh per month.
• Installing low flow aerators on faucets can save water and energy.
• Drain a pail of water from your natural gas hot water tank every 3 months, or
as Recommended by the manufacturer, to remove sediment that prevents heat
transfer, lowering the unit’s efficiency. (I can add this to my Honey do list! Look like he has another thing to do on his list for this weekend, surely this can be done between the NHL playoff games that are constantly on our TV these past few weeks! There is another energy saving tip I will bring up soon, turning off the TV!!!)
Hope you have a GREAT WEEKEND!
