We are always looking for different ways\u00a0to reduce our monthly expenses, especially during the cold season. Today we are talking about the electricity bill. Specifically, common mistakes that increase our electricity bill.<\/span><\/div>\n
Why your electricity bill is so high<\/h2>\n
\n
The most common cause is the use of old appliances. As you probably know, household appliances have a certain life\u00a0expectancy and, at some point, when they no longer work as they should, they start consuming more power, which is why they need to be replaced. Also, there are cases where old appliances have been designed to consume more electricity. For example, washing machines have an average life span of 8 years. If your washing machine is older,\u00a0you might consider\u00a0changing it. Do some research on\u00a0every device you own and make sure you don’t use them any more than you should.<\/span><\/li>\n
