When I first started living with roommates, I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect.
I did notice that everybody was cranking the A/C in the beginning.
I told everybody we should hold off on the A/C a little bit because that’s one of my favorite energy saving tips. You simply utilize the fans around the house more than just cranking the A/C. I mean what are ceiling fans for if you’re not going to use them! When everybody looked at the utility bill after the first month, they agreed that I might be right, the energy bills were way too costly. I was surprised when they all asked me if I had any other energy saving tips. Oh, I was the master when it came to energy saving tips. I talked everybody into using an indoor grill and to grill outdoors more often so that we wouldn’t overheat the house. It was better to use the stove way less frequently in the summer months. In the colder months though, it was good to use the stove to make it so the heating system doesn’t have to work nearly as much. We also put block-out curtains on the windows to stop the sun rays from causing heating in the house when we had the A/C system working. It wasn’t long when everybody became excited upon seeing that the energy saving tips were paying off! We saved so much money on the energy bills that we decided to go out to celebrate at one of the local bars. We all enjoyed good food, drinks, in honor of me saving everybody a lot of money.
