Tip:1 The single most effective way to save money on your electric bill is to start getting service from an ESCO. An ESCO, (Energy Savings Company) supplies retail electricity/energy for customers. A few years ago our law makers decided to bring market competition to the sale of electricity and natural gas. At one time in the past we had no choice but to buy our energy from our local utility. This is no longer the case. We can choose another provider, and in fact, we are encouraged by local energy utilities and our law makers to choose another provider so we can increase competition which would help decrease energy prices.
Ambit Energy, is by far the best ESCO that is available on the market today. Ambit Energy offers customers a 7% discount on their first 2 months and continued savings every month thereafter. Not only do you save money on your electric and gas bill with Ambit Energy, you earn free travel. When I heard about this I was like "Ok, what's the catch?" To my surprise there was no catch. Every kilowatt hour of electricity and gas therm that is used, counts as one reward point. When you get enough reward points, you can select a free vacation package. Another great thing about Ambit Energy is that there are no fees to sign up, no long term contracts and finally Ambit Energy guarantees in writing that you will save money when you sign up. I strongly recommend that you sign up on the website and start saving money and start earning reward points to be redeemed for exclusive vacations. Go to this link: http://saliba.joinambit.com. This is by far the easiest way to instantly save money on your electric bill.
Tip 2: Use fluorescent light bulbs. They not only save you money on your electric bill, but they last 10 times longer than the incandescent light bulbs. While an incandescent bulb will convert about 10% of the energy into visible light, a fluorescent bulb will convert between 30 and 40%, of the electricity that it uses into visible light.
Tip 3: Purchase energy efficient appliances that help you save money on your electric bill. I strongly recommend that you go to the Energy Star website to look at the best certified environmentally friendly appliances that can save you money. If you have a refrigerator that is over 15 years, it can account for up to 9% of your energy bill.
Tip 4: Install energy efficient windows. These windows keep climate controlled air inside for longer-which causes you to use your appliances less. This means that you will save money on your electric bill and help the environment. Finally, keep all of your windows and doors insulated. This keeps your home warmer during the winter and cooler in the summer when the air condition is running.
If you put these tips into action you can start seeing significant savings to your bill every month.
