Pansey Looks at Florida's Growing Cities and Power Demand [print this page] Most people are aware of basic tips to keep bills downturn off the lights, turn up the thermostat, etcetera. But Neil G. Pansey knows that there are better ways to save money on electricity bills. Neil G. Pansey suggests the five best ways to save energy in hot weather. 1. Replace the filters in the air conditioning system, says Neil G. Pansey. These filters are cheap and easy to find. Neil G. Pansey believes that this is the most overlooked way to save money. When filters are dirty, the flow of air is decreased around the home. According to Neil G. Pansey, this causes the air conditioning system to need more energy to operate. For the homeowner, that means higher bills. Replace the filters at least once a month, says Neil G. Pansey. 2. Use the dishwasher, continues Neil G. Pansey. This one may come as a surprise, but the dishwasher takes up less energy and water than washing by hand. Neil G. Pansey explains that dishwashers are more efficient in allocating energy and therefore can actually lower monthly bills. In the summer, run the sink water as little as possible, asserts Neil G. Pansey. 3. Use plain, cold water when washing clothes. According to Neil G. Pansey, most people don't even realize that they are sucking up energy when they put on a wash with hot water. To save cash, just use cold water. It washes just as well, says Neil G. Pansey. 4. Microwaves save the most energy, says Neil G. Pansey. It uses much less power than ovens or stoves. Neil G. Pansey explains that many meals can be made quickly in the microwave. Sometimes, it's just the best option, says Neil G. Pansey. 5. Finally, Neil G. Pansey recommends keeping a stocked fridge. When the refrigerator door is open, more food prevents cool air from escaping, explains Neil G. Pansey. He concludes that following these easy steps will save power in the summer.
