Keeping your home environmentally friendly is an important task, but it doesn’t have to be as difficult as it sounds. Alongside decreasing your impact on the world around you, a sustainable home can also save you money. It’s a win-win!
However, having an eco-friendly property means much more than simply doing your recycling. You can make some additional changes to guarantee your home is making a minimal impact. Here are some top suggestions:
Fixing water leaks ASAP – Research from Water UK has shown that the average UK resident uses 142 litres of water per day! So, sealing any water leaks is a must to ensure you’re limiting any water wastage
Insulate your water pipes – If tap water takes longer to heat up, we often leave it running for longer. Using insulated pipes means you can get hot water faster without leaving the tap running.
Switch to energy-saving light bulbs – LED energy-saving light bulbs might be a bit more expensive, but they’re very energy-efficient and can last up to 25 years.
