High utility bills? Hot water may be draining some of your hard-earned money straight through your pipes. The Department of Energy estimates that almost 17% of a home’s total energy is used by water heaters. In fact, if you combine the energy consumed by all other household appliances, total won’t even come close to what water heaters consume. There’s no denying that hot water is essential to daily life. It’s used from showers and cleaning, to the preparation of food. So, it makes sense to be more efficient in using water heaters to lower your utility expenses. Here are some tips: Plug Up All Leaks Even a small leak in your hot water system can be costly over time. Not only do they waste precious water, but they can cause deterioration. Check your showers, sinks, and toilets. Carefully go over your hoses outside. Inspect your gaskets and washers for tightness.
