TIPS ON HOW TO SAVE
To combat high electricity costs this summer, BKV Energy recommends these practical tips:
Optimize Thermostat
Set your thermostat to 78F during the day or even a little higher while you’re away to avoid unnecessary cooling costs.
Use Fans, not AC
Use ceiling fans and portable fans to stay cool, and turn them off when leaving the room.
Smart Water Heating
Lower water heater temperature and take shorter, cooler showers.
Efficient Appliance Use
Use washers and dryers only when running full loads.
Efficient Baking
Don’t open the oven to check on your food, instead use the light!
Lighting Strategy
Take advantage of natural light in the morning and close blinds in the afternoon to reduce cooling needs.
