There are numerous ways in which you can save on your gas bill in your home: from cooking to heating.

  1. Adjusting air-conditioning: In case you have central air-conditioning & there are rooms that you don’t use very much, cover the vent in that room & shut the door.
  2. Use dark drapes to block unwanted sunshine in the summer & in the winter, let the maximum amount of sunlight inside to warm up your rooms naturally.
  3. Use solar energy. Initial investment can be high, but it reduces fuel & utility bills dramatically in the long run.
  4. Minimize energy loss through cracks in windows, ceilings & doors. Seal these cracks immediately with caulking material.
  5. Living in a chilly area, use dark colors for your roof & sidings as they absorb more energy & if you live in hot areas, use lighter colors as they reflect the sun's rays.
  6. Don’t preheat your oven unless your recipe requires pre-heating.
  7. Use energy efficient lamps.
  8. Turning your thermostat even one degree less can save on energy & boost gas savings.
  9. Light your stove only when you are ready to cook & ingredients are handy.
  10. Try using a pressure cooker.
  11. Avoid using too much hot water since it takes longer to prepare.
  12. Reduce flame when boiling starts.
  13. Cover cooking pots & pans with lids to prevent heat form escaping.
  14. Use small burners as they utilize less energy when compared to a big burner.
  15. Clean the burner if the flame is orange or yellowish.
  16. Avoid closing & opening doors/windows throughout the day since it allows cold air to escape or enter.
  17. Enable the hot water tank to work with a reduced temperature. While many prefer 120 degrees, 105 degrees can be set comfortably. Confer with hot water maintenance personnel if the temperature is safe for your family.
  18. Avoid dishwasher drying as plates can air dry.
  19. Inspect the chimney so it doesn't let in an excessive amount of cold air. Whenever the chimney is not being used, don't forget to close the flue.
