Building an Energy Efficient Home
We all want to save money on our energy bills and it’s possible with the right ideas and upgrades. It all comes down to understanding where most of your energy is wasted and what upgrades you can make to your home, so you can avoid energy loss meaning you’re lowering your energy consumption and your energy costs!
How to make an old home energy efficient?
The best place to start is understanding where most of your energy is lost. Usually it is down to a lack of insulation. Ensuring your home has sufficient insulation and is airtight is a great first step. Replacing your windows with more energy-efficient ones can also be a huge money saver in the long run. On top of that, you can also install a smart electricity meter that will control how much energy is used.
Having more control over your energy spend certainly makes a lot of sense and it will also give you an accurate reading of your meter usage, no more estimated bills ever!
What is an energy efficient home?
Ideally, an energy efficient home will be focused on reducing energy consumption by being well insulated which provides a high level of comfort to its occupants. In addition, energy efficient homes usually have a smart heating system that automatically stops energy consumption when you are away. Smart systems can be controlled remotely, so you can easily set the temperature and stop the heating system as you see fit no matter where you are. Upgrading to a Climote Remote heating smart thermostat is a great way to start saving you energy and money.
