I’m sorry but I have to say something here, because this is a subject which really gets me upset. Mostly because so many people are saying this and I just want to jump in and shut them up.  How many time have you been told by your friends and family to turn off your geyser everyday between the hours of 6 in the morning and 3 in the afternoon to save electricity. I’ve even heard this from government which surprizes me because aren’t they supposed to know a thing or two about conserving energy.  But clearly they don’t
People that tell you this are clearly deluded, don’t get me wrong I know they are sincerely trying to help and bless then for that but they’re sincerely wrong and I will explain why in a moment.   

There could be only two reasons why government do this. One, we have people in charge who have NO experience with electricity and really just put out information that seems logical or two, and this I hope isn’t true because if it is, then it’s VERY sad. They tell us this because it puts more money is there pocket.  

Turning you water heater off every day does NOT and I repeat NOT save you electricity. It does the opposite. A water heater is heated up and stays hot for a long period of time because it’s well-insulated. There is a thermostat that controls the heat. It switches on every two hours or so for two minutes to keep the heat constant. So in affect the water heater is only on for 24 minutes a day if no one uses it. Not even half an hour. When water is used for a shower or a bath then a small amount of energy is used to replace the heat lost.

If you turned off your water heater everyday can you imagine how much energy you would use when turning it on again. Your bill would higher and so would your blood pressure.

Only if you are leaving for a holiday for a week and no one was using your home then it makes sense to turn off your water heater. So please don’t be fooled by people that give bad advice it will only end up costing you.

If you want to save energy and lower your electricity bill there are far more better ways that can save you plenty of money. In fact there is a way that can reduce your electricity by more than 75% and it doesn’t cost you the world.

You’ve heard of Solar Panels using the suns energy and are probably think they are too expensive. You would be right. Solar energy is crazy money. However now there is way to build your own Solar Panel and turbine system with parts from your local hardware store. The money you spend on this will literally save you thousands of dollars.

Why not take a look at this option first before I made a decision.  To find out what it’s about, click here
 

The reason solar energy is so expensive – can we do anything?

1)   Competition is minimal and in every case if the supply is low the expense in high. Unfortunately solar         energy is not as popular as you would think.

2)  There does seem to be an interest to improve our current house designs.     Builders find it unprofitable:    To build a house with solar architecture is time consuming and expensive. To source material is not easy as not many people are doing it

3)  The government is probably the biggest culprit as they are the primary offender of energy conservation. They don’t seem to have any interest in a sustainable culture that might threaten is position of power. After     all the  government control most, if not all our fuel resources    

4)  Most people are so involved with the on goings of the day and have so many problems, there’s hardly time to consider benefits of solar energy.   

5)  Fossil fuel oil corporations that control the economy are doing everything they can to prevent alternative forms of energy
    
6)  As a society we have become addicted to fossil fuel.

What we can do is start making a difference by using other forms of energy. Sparing the environment. Yes the price is high,

but maybe we can think about our kids future and sacrifice something.
