Don’t add unnecessary moisture

Energy Tip:

Wrapping how water cylinders and lagging pipes can help reduce electricity costs of heating hot water

Energy Tip:

Consider efficient heating, such as heat pumps, wood burners, wetbacks

Did you know:

At 3% inflation, household energy bills are set to double again in the next 20 years

Energy Tip:

Close of unused rooms so that you are not wasting energy heating them

Energy Tip:

Insulation reduces heat loss, did you know indoor temperatures below 16 degrees affects respiratory function in vulnerable people and temperatures below 12 degrees affect heart function

Did you know:

Un-flued gas heaters create 1 litre of moisture per hour

Energy Tip:

Choose the right sized externally vented extractor fan for the job, a fan to small wont remove moist air and a fan too large can create draughts, ensure you have automatic controls, such as a timer which runs for 20 minutes after it is turned off.
