By following the Utility Warehouse tips below, you could save even more money by reducing the amount of energy you use.

Insulation tips

• A well insulated building is cheaper to heat.
• Draught-proofing windows and doors is very cost effective.
• Effective loft insulation: the minimum level of loft insulation is 270mm, but the more you have the more energy you will save.
• Cavity wall insulation can reduce the amount of heat lost through your walls.

Water heating tips

• Insulate your hot water cylinder and water pipes. Lagging jackets need to be at least 80mm (three inches) thick to be effective.

Lighting tips

• Ensure lights are switched off in empty rooms, and adjust curtains and blinds to let in as much light as possible.
• Replace light bulbs with low energy light bulbs.

Heating tips

• Turn your thermostat down. Reducing your room temperature by 1 degree celsius could cut your heating bills by up to 10{8ee99a90b51e2217d12101096daf2ee9e40c43b9c2fa413e32f91dd0a196a214}.
