With everyone working and staying at home, energy bills are expected to increase.
Luckily, the weather has been warm, meaning you don’t need to have the heating on all the time, but you’re probably using your computer, TV, oven and lighting more.that 72% of the 2,000 people surveyed said they were using more energy during lockdown.To keep your costs down, even when you’re staying in, we have some tips.You might be at home a lot more but you’re probably spending most of the day in one place.
If you have some outside space, hang them out to leave your laundry smelling fresh. Even drying inside on a clothes airer will be more efficient than a tumble dryer.When life is busy, you can forget little jobs like bleeding your radiators, but now you’re at home, make an effort to go around them all. You need to turn the heating on and your radiators up full to create pressure but only so they get slightly warm. Once they are slightly warm, turn the heating off and wait for them to cool.
Grab a radiator key and put a bowl with a towel underneath. Open the valve with the key and let the air out. Once the hissing sound stops, you might see a trickle of water. Tighten the valve up again and turn the heating on to check if it’s been successful. A properly bleed radiator will heat the room much more efficiently and hopefully mean you won’t have to have it on for as long.
