8 simple ways to reduce the amount of your power you use:
Possible Saving

1. Energy saving light bulbs
Replacing a 100 Watt incandescent bulb with a 24 Watt compact fluorescent bulb.

2. Stand-by Mode
Do you know New Zealanders waste more than $100 million per year by leaving appliances on stand-by mode. We recommend switching your appliances off at the wall.

3. Fridge/freezer
The average household spends 11% of their energy bill on refrigeration alone. If you have a second fridge with nothing in it switch it off and save!

4. Heated towel rail
Use a heated towel rail timer and get toasty warm towels for less. Set it for eight hours a day rather than leaving it on continuously.

5. Washing machine
Try using cold water to wash your clothes: for houses doing four or more loads a week this uses 75% less electricity.

6. Hot water cylinder
By insulating your hot water cylinder with a cylinder wrap your hot water will stay warmer for longer.

7. Dryer
Utilise other methods to dry your washing.
Either the sun or drying racks.

8. Heating
Good insulation and efficient heaters (including modern wood pellet burners, ENERGYSTAR heat pumps, and 4+ star rated flued gas heaters) make it easier and cheaper to heat your home to healthy and comfortable temperatures.

Smart lighting choices in your home help reduce your power bill while giving you the look and style you want.

You pay 400% more to run a standard bulb instead of a quality energy efficient LED bulb that gives you the same amount of light. And quality LEDs last a lot longer. You can expect an LED bulb to last 15 years or more. Over the life time, an LED could save you $290 (for each LED bulb) of similar brightness to a 100W standard light bulb.

Based on 15,000 hour LED bulb life, LED purchase cost of $25.00 and an electricity price of 0.23c/KWh.

IS YOUR HOUSEHOLD PAYING MORE FOR YOUR ELECTRICITY THIS WINTER?

One of the easiest ways to save is by replacing your old light bulbs with energy efficient ones. Old fashioned incandescent bulbs use more energy and cost more to run - that means a bigger electricity bill.
Check out the range of efficient bulbs and by simply changing just one 100W light bulb to a 20W energy efficient bulb.

HAPPY SAVING! :-)
