Energy Useful Tips to Reduce Your Gas and Electricity Costs
Cut Energy Costs & Reduce Your Carbon Footprint: Practical Tips for UK Households.
As the cost of living rises, cutting energy bills and your carbon footprint is crucial. Inflation is squeezing household budgets, so managing energy use can save money and help the environment.
Even small changes can lead to big savings. Here are some practical tips to reduce energy use without sacrificing comfort.
Simple Swaps That Make a Difference: Switch to energy-efficient light bulbs like LEDs. They use less electricity than traditional bulbs and last longer, saving you money on bills and replacements.
Be Mindful of Daily Habits: Small daily actions can have a big impact. Turn off the lights when you leave a room. Switch off appliances instead of leaving them on standby. Use smart power strips to save energy. Only boil the water you need in the kettle, and run your washing machine or dishwasher with full loads.
…
Heating Smarter, Not Harder: Heating is a major part of energy costs. Regularly service your boiler, set your thermostat to a comfortable level (around 18–21°C), and use programmable timers. Draught-proof doors and windows to keep heat in.
Why It Matters: These small changes help your wallet and support a greener future. Reducing energy use cuts carbon emissions and aligns with the UK’s environmental goals.

Save on Your Energy Bills
It’s important to look at your home heating habits and see if there are small changes you can make to save some money.
- Turn down your thermostat. Just one degree lower could save you some cash. Why not set a timer on your thermostat for your heating to come on only when you need it.
- Don’t heat the rooms you’re not in. Individual radiator thermostats mean you can adjust the temperature in each room accordingly.
- Keep doors between adjoining rooms shut. This way, you stop the heat from escaping.
- Run your heating for slightly less every day. Even using a little less energy each day adds up over time.
- Bleed your radiators. This removes any trapped air that stops them from working as efficiently as they could.
- Check your boiler’s output. Most people aren’t aware that you can adjust the temperature on your boiler as well as your thermostat. Combi boilers’ factory setting tends to be 80 degrees but you can actually set it to 65 degrees for maximum efficiency. It’ll heat the water to a slightly lower temperature but save you money.
- Block out unwanted gaps. Draught-proofing is usually a cheap and easy way to keep the heat in.
- Keep the heat in. Simply closing your blinds or curtains in the evening can also stop the heat loss. Just be sure your curtains don’t cover the radiators.
- Insulation is another fantastic way to keep the warmth in.
