Five energy saving tips that help cut bills
Reduce flow rate on your boiler
Boilers have a flow temperature - which if you tweak could save up to £100.
According to This is Money, lowering the rate from 80C to 60C saves nine per cent of total gas use.
Or £112 for the average home.
Draught-proofing
You can draught-proof your home and save money on heating.
Sealing up any gaps in your property will prevent heat from escaping.
Foam strips are easily fitted to windows, doors and floorboards.
The small change could save you £30 a year on your energy bills.
Thermostatic radiator valves
The dials on the side of your radiator determine the amount of heat let out.
Making sure they're set to only a level you need them at to heat the room could save money.
Some energy firms suggest using the dials could cut energy use by up to 40 per cent.
Use appliances when they're full
You should only use household appliances when they're full.
Washing machines, tumble dryers and dishwashers consume most of the energy in the home.
To make sure you're using them as efficiently as possible, you should only use them once they are filled.
It's also recommended to wash your clothes on 30C heat only.
Insulating your property
What might be more of a higher cost to begin with could massively benefit you in the long run.
Installing insulation can really help save money as the harsh weather sets in.
However it's worth checking with an expert first how much you would save before forking out.
There are a number of heat-saving myths that Brits are being warned to avoid when trying to save.
One is putting foil behind radiators to save energy - which should be avoided because it oxidises over time, making it almost useless at saving heat.
This technique should only be done if professional radiator reflective foil is used, which costs around £8 for a four-metre roll at hardware stores such as B&Q.
