Three Energy Saving Tips To Lower Your Power Bill

15/5/2019

 
What if we told you that there are ways to save while keeping warm and healthy over winter in Christchurch? These three simple tips can help you use your heat pump more energy efficiently.

​Energy-Saving Heat Pump Features

​Did you know the timer in your heat pump can help you be more energy efficient? Instead of making your heat pump work hard to heat your home quickly when you get out of bed and again when you get home from work, use the timers.

Instead of sudden bursts of hot air each time you feel cold, the timer can turn your heat pump on during off-peak hours, maintaining a comfortable temperature throughout your home. This way, your heat pump doesn’t have to work as hard, and your home is warm when you need it.

​Regular Heat Pump Maintenance

You know how hard it is to breathe when your nose is blocked? The same goes for your heat pump when its filters are blocked. Moving air around to heat your home causes dust, dirt and pollen build-up in your filters. When your heat pump’s filters are blocked, it has to work harder to move the same amount of air to heat your home properly.

While it may be frosty, take a look at your outdoor heat pump unit. Keep it clear of leaves, twigs and dirt that can block the airflow. 

Regularly servicing your heat pump is a requirement to keep your warranty intact. The team at Heat Pumps NOW will check and clean everything in both your indoor and outdoor units. As well as making your heat pump more energy efficient, we can also spot and fix signs of wear and tear before they become bigger problems in the future.

​Invest in Insulation

To make heating your home easier, invest in insulation. Look out for cold spots like drafts around windows and doors. Try holding a candle near your closed door or window and if the flame sways, you’ll spot the draft. Most hardware stores have foam strips you can use to plug the leak and keep the heat in, while still allowing you to open and shut your window.

Investing in thick, winter curtains and drawing them in the afternoon to trap the heat in will also work wonders. Head to the Community Energy Action curtain bank. They have a wide range of thermal curtains to help you keep your home warmer over winter. The best news, their curtain bank services are free!

These simple steps can make a big difference in your heating costs.
