Keep your energy bill cool this summer
Close windows and curtains early in the day before the house heats up on summer days.
Once the temperature cools outside, open windows, curtains and blinds to let the cool air in.
Use fans where possible – they use much less energy than an air conditioner.
Drape a wet sheet over an open doorway or in front of a pedestal fan during hot days. It’s nature’s evaporative cooler!
Set the thermostat on your air conditioner to between 24–26°C. Every degree lower will add 5-10% to your cooling bill.

Did you know that many appliances continue to draw stand-by power when switched off, which can contribute up to 10% of household electricity use.
