Electricity bill can be reduced even if you run a geyser, know these tricks

Winter season has started in India. In the winter months, having hot water for baths is a must for many people, which often leads to installing geysers in bathrooms. It’s pretty clear that these geysers can significantly hike up your electricity bill during this season. However, there are some simple tricks to help cut down those costs.

 

To keep your electricity bill in check while using a geyser, the key is to choose the right size. A bigger geyser heats more water than you actually need, which can lead to higher electricity expenses.

 

Opting for a 5-star rated geyser can also help, as these models are designed to be more energy-efficient and consume less electricity compared to standard ones.

 

Another way to save on electricity is by lowering the geyser’s temperature. Typically, geysers are set between 55 to 65 degrees Celsius. By adjusting it to 55 degrees, you can further decrease your energy usage.

 

Additionally, keeping a geyser on for extended periods can lead to increased electricity consumption. Once the water is heated, the geyser will turn off, but if it’s left on, it will start reheating the water as it cools down.

 

This cycle of heating and cooling can happen all day if the geyser is continuously running, leading to unnecessary energy use. Using a timer for your geyser can help limit its operating time, preventing excess electricity consumption and ultimately saving you money.
