How to Keep Your Water Heating Bill Low

Utility bills can add up at the end of the month.  Fortunately, with a few simple changes to your home routines and fixtures, you can save money on your water heating bill.

Here are a few tips to help you save next month!

How to Save:

  • Make the Upgrade - New water heaters are more energy-efficient than older models.  If your water heater is over 10 years old, you should upgrade to a newer, more efficient appliance.  This is a great way to accumulate long-term savings.
  • Take Showers -While baths can be relaxing, showers are more energy-efficient.  Even when a bath is filled with only a few inches of water, it is still less efficient than a short shower.
  • Fix Leaky Faucets - Leaky faucets and pipes can add up.  A leak of one drip per second can cost $1 per month, according to the Department of Energy. Although this may not seem like much, this cost can add up over time.
  • Install Low-Flow Fixtures - New shower heads and faucets flow and lower rates, saving you money.  As an added bonus, a new fixture can give your bathroom an updated look and feel.
