Something that all the people have in usual is that they all want to save currency! One of the areas that various Americans can save currency on is their electric bill, especially in the warm summer time months, then you do not need to sacrifice your indoor comfort to save currency each month on your electric bill.

However, you must be willing to commit to making simpe swings and you will see that bill decrease.The first change you can make is to put your shades down on sunny days.

This will protect your home from warm UV rays which increase the temperature. It is not as pretty or bright with the shades pulled down, but you can buy pretty and bright things with all the currency you save on your electric bill. You can also consider purchasing blackout shades which will absolutely keep the sun away and keep the temperature cooler. Make sure to put all of your ceiling fans on and raise the temperature on your temperature control at least two degrees higher. You easily will not feel the difference in two degrees if all of the fans in your home are on. Make sure to set the ceiling fan to rotate in a counterclockwise direction. Another important, yet overlooked step is to switch out your A/C filter every month to every three months. Trapped dirt and debris will block the cooling air from coming out of your air conditinong. Another step is to switch to LED light bulbs. If you have a loft with several leves set the temperature control on the top level to the coolest temperature.
