Keep Energy Bills To A Minimum This Summer

UK homeowners have been hit extremely hard by the cost of energy during the last winter. Several of the major energy companies increased their costs, whilst certain parts of the country experienced freezing conditions on a regular basis. Fuel poverty figures have also gone up which occurs when a homeowner pays out 10% of their income on household fuel. As a result of this, millions of UK homeowners have started the year out of pocket and struggling to make ends meet. However, now isn’t the time to start feeling sorry for yourself, now is the time to try and get some of that money back which means reducing your energy bills to a level where you can afford to pay for them.
When the warmer weather arrives you need to take advantage of it, but unless you have a modern set of windows installed you won’t be able to fully capitalise. This is because a set of aluminium windows and wooden windows will utilise the heat of the sun and transfer it into your home. They will also prevent heat from escaping so therefore it will allow you to use your boiler far less often.

As a result of this, your energy bills during the summer months will be vastly reduced from what they were costing you during the back end of last year and beginning of 2012. This will be useful for anyone who has found themselves in debt to their energy company as this has also been a regular occurrence on recent times.
By using your heating system less often you will also be doing your bit to lower carbon emissions and make the world a more environmentally-friendly, so it isn’t just your finances that will benefit.
To enjoy the full effect of the weather why not also look into sunrooms as a form of extension.
