My power bill is the largest expense next to my house payment. Last spring my water heater valve decided to lock open on its own and present me with a eight hundred dollar power bill. Yippee, I am so proud. It was like throwing money out the window. This was a big eye opener for my family be at the top of the energy efficiency lists, hopefully for a home my size. The game plan was to start watching our power usage and stop leaving the TV or the lights on. It took over six months for the power bill to become more manageable since this winters power consumption did not cost as much as normal. Since this experience this winter I have been looking further ways to same on my home heating cost. Lucky me I found a website that will take all of your home’s energy costs and family power usage to give an inside look of your energy power consumption habits. Microsoft-Hohm.com can provide you with a break down of your overall annual energy consumption report, along with how the home energy consumption usage matches up to other homes like yours in the area that you live. I bet none of them had a $800 dollar power bill. So proud. If you want to get further details you can take your actual electricity consumption to give you an accurate cost of home to home size energy usage comparison. There is personalized recommendations of a do-it-yourself way to save on your energy consumption costs.
