1) Dryer Vent Cleaning
Dryer vents are among the most-used and least-cared for devices in your home. When they're clogged, you'll end up wasting a lot of energy with high costs. To avoid that, improve the airflow and look at cleaning your dryer vent.
2) Replace Windows with Energy-Efficient Windows
It's always easy to lower your energy bills by replacing old, inefficient windows. Since they add to cooling costs and increase heat loss through the roof or through cracks on the interior wall, it's definitely worth seeing what you can do about this expense.
3) Invest in a solar panel
It might take a huge amount of money but it'll cut your future electricity bills by half. Unlike traditional electricity, solar panel is free to use and can save you in the long run.
4) Install Energy Star Heating and Cooling
Many homeowners might not be aware that their heating system and central air conditioners aren't allowed to use more than a certain amount of energy.
5) Insulate Your Attic
Your attic is another place that heats up during warm days, especially if it isn't insulated. Insulating your attic can cut your cooling costs by 10% and heating costs by 20%.
6) Lower Your Home's Temperature with an Energy-Efficient Heater
If you don't want to give up on home comfort but don't want to increase your overall energy bill, consider installing a smart thermostat that cuts down on the amount of time it takes to heat and cool your home. This type of thermostat also lowers electricity bills by 10%-20%.
7) Use Shower Fans
Shower fans can help reduce water bills by 15% because they use less water than normal showers.
