Benefits of installing free energy monitor in Victoria

Here are some noteworthy benefits of installing an energy monitor:

1. It helps you keep tabs on your household energy usage

An energy monitor encourages your family to conserve energy even more. As a residential electricity consumer, you can get meaningful insights into your energy usage patterns.

2. It gives you an idea of your monthly expenditure on energy

Your energy monitor tells you about how much energy is used daily, weekly, and monthly. By tracking your electricity usage, you’ll be able to reduce energy wastage and estimate the amount you need to allocate for your energy bill.

3. It helps you think again about appliances that consume high energy

When you are constantly tracking your energy consumption, you can detect high wattage gulping appliances in your house. When shopping for new appliances, power usage stats from your energy monitor will always pop into your mind and help you make a learned decision.

4. It helps you make more money-saving changes

Since you’ll be monitoring your energy usage constantly, you are most likely to make energy-saving changes to your lifestyle. For instance, you may start thinking about taking shorter showers, replacing incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs, and hang drying your clothes.

Can home energy monitoring help reduce your power bills?

We often tend to waste electricity in our homes via constant usage of outdated technologies and energy-inefficient appliances. An old fridge may use around 1,700 kWh of energy annually, compared to the Energy Star version of the same size that consumes only 450 kWh per year.

However, this doesn’t mean that you replace all your old appliances with new ones, but installing a home energy monitor definitely enables you to find ways to use those appliances more judiciously or simply upgrade them to be more energy efficient.

How to monitor household electricity usage?

The home energy monitor we install provides real-time energy monitoring via smartphone app. These energy monitors are perfect to identify power drains by appliances that are left running when you are at work. These monitors even send you alerts when you reach or exceed your monthly billing limit.

Another way home energy monitors work is by retaining appliances’ historical data for helping you better understand daily energy consumption. With that data, you can work on finding some actionable solutions for cutting down your energy usage. Wouldn’t it be great to know what’s draining your electricity and reducing its usage to actively decrease your energy consumption?
