Some of these may be different to what you’ve seen before, because we don’t believe in spending £000’s of pounds on a product that will save you £50 of energy a year!!!!

(dare I say double glazing, a new £1500 boiler or a wind turbine!!! )

We believe people want a product that costs £50 and will save them £25-50 of energy EVERY year!

So here’s our Low Cost & No Cost Top 10 Tips

Stop heating your walls with Novitherm radiator Panels
Fit Novitherm Radiator Panels (obvious really since its our no.1 best seller) saving you  £40 every year (£42.50 investment)

Fit low energy light bulbs  
Have you seen the 7w halogen spot lights for all those recessed 50 watts you’ve got in your ceiling! Saving you 80% electricity for every bulb replaced (investment £4 each bulb)  
Or the LED equivalent that use 1-2 watts each!

Draught Proofing
Fill those draughts and gaps around your doors and windows. Very cheap to do using foam strips and brush strips.   -  Don’t forget the letter box and key hole.

Wrap up your hot water cylinder
Insulate your hot water tank with a 3 inch (80mm) insulation jacket and save around £20 a year (£30 investment)

Ditch the StandBy switch
Turn it OFF when not in use. This is a seriously cheap and obvious energy saving tip. Think TV, video, DVD, games console, digi and sky box, hifi, you name it, if its on standby it’s probably using at least 50% of the electricity. (investment £0)

Lights on = People in the house +1
Turn the light out when you leave the room. My old Dad taught me this as a child. If there are 2 people in the house, he would only let us keep 3 lights on!! (investment £0)

Insulate your loft
You’d have thought everyone would have this covered, but ask yourself this: How deep is your loft insulation? Latest Building Regs figures for minimum depth is 11inches (270mm)
Don’t top it up with nasty itchy fibreglass, use Warmcel 100 instead (Which? magazine Best Buy November 2006). Comparable in cost and uses 10% of the energy to produce! Save £90-£100 a year (investment £400)

Fit a Fuel conditioner to your vehicle or heating boiler
Ecoflows magnet technology products have been saving people money for years, why not join them (investment £55)

Cup of Coffee? Only boil what you need
Don’t overfill the kettle, measure it out until you get the hang of it, this will save an enormous amount of electricity, Apparently, if we all did this, we'd save enough electricity to power two thirds of the street lighting in the UK!  (investment £0)

Wash clothes at 30 degrees C.
Try washing your clothes at 30 degrees C, this will save you approx 41% of your washing energy usage, according to recent research (12 Sept 2007). (investment £0)

If everyone in the country turned to 30, we would save...

- £170 million a year!
- enough CO2 to fill almost 143,000 hot air balloons
- enough energy to power 640 football stadiums
- enough energy to power all UK street lighting for almost a year
- enough CO2 to fill 4,000 Royal Albert Halls
- enough CO2 to fill 243 Millenium Stadiums
- enough CO2 to fill 1,200 York Minsters
- enough CO2 to fill over 4million Double Decker buses
