Reduce Your Use
How much modified
inverter power do you use right now? Your monthly energy bill will report
how many KWH or kilowatt hours your household used during that month. If you
haven't done anything to reduce your use up to this point you should
realistically be able to cut your current amount of power use in half.
Here's how to painlessly reduce your use:
1 - Insulate, insulate, insulate.
* Plug every escape route you can identify.
* Double up on the insulation in floors, walls and attic.
* Ensure that no air is passing through dryer vents,
chimneys, attic doors, electrical outlets and around doors and windows. On a
breezy day hold a match or lighter flame near any suspicious areas. If it
flickers, air is moving in or out. Find the leaky spot and plug it.
* If it's time to replace the windows, seek out the most
energy efficient types available.
2 - Hot water solutions.
* 120° F (48° C) or less is the ideal temperature for your
hot water heater for power
saver inverter energy reduction and safety from scalding. Most families use
their hot water in the morning and after supper yet the water is kept hot even
when no one is in the house or everyone is asleep. Programmable water heaters
only heat water when you tell them to - saving hundreds of dollars per year on
your hot water heating bill.
* Wrap your hot water tank with an insulating blanket (made
especially for this purpose).
* Better yet, install a solar hot water heater. More about
that below.
