It’s hard to believe how much money we spend on home utilities. Now that the colder weather is upon us, our energy bills will only go up, due to heating. Home heating is nearly 40% of each energy bill. And it’s a fine line trying to keep warm but not get stuck with an alarmingly high power bill. Every degree your thermostat is lowered saves 5% on your monthly power bill.
A decade ago, the average monthly electric bill was around $80. Now, it’s nearly $30 more (approximately $107.28). In the last three years alone, energy bills have risen by 37%. Newer homes—ones built after 2000 consume 2% more energy.
