Handy Scarbrook Tips
Christmas is one of the most expensive times of the year,
you have to buy presents for all your family and friends and your energy bills
get higher by the day. Colder, darker weather means more time the heating needs
to be turned on to keep the house warm.
As Yorkshire’s Premier Heating Provider, Scarbrook Plumbing
and Heating have a few handy tips to help keep your costs down this festive
period.
Close the Curtains.
Closing your curtains earlier in the day can help to keep
heat in the room. That means you can leave the heating on lower as you aren't wasting
heat. This also works in reverse. If it is sunny outside get your curtains open
and let the sunlight in! Warmth you don’t have to pay for is the best kind.
Leave the Oven Door Open
After you have cooked you Christmas dinner for the entire
family leave the oven door slightly open, the remaining heat will leave your
kitchen warmer, plus it smells nice.
More Efficient Shower Head
A more water efficient shower head will naturally reduce the
amount of water that you use during your shower. This in-turn reduces the
amount of water that needs heating – saving you money. The Energy Saving Trust
calculates a water efficient shower head could save a family of four £67 per
year on water heating as well as an additional £100 on water bills.
Thermostat Control
Turning down your thermostat by just one degree can save you
up to £90 per year in heating bills and you won’t even feel the difference.
Have a Warm and Merry Christmas from Scarbrook Plumbing & Heating.
