We all enjoy hot baths and showers but how hot do you need it to be? It costs you a lot for the energy to heat your water so if you set the thermostat to provide almost boiling water you are wasting a great deal of energy and a lot of money.

Most of us enjoy a hot bath but we don’t need scalding water. If you find you are adding a lot of cold water then you are probably setting your water temperature too high.

Save yourself some money by turning the thermostat down a little each week until you get to the point where the water starts to feel too cool and then turn it up just a little and leave it there. You will save energy and save money.
