When it comes to DIY, the best bit is saving cash, right? Do you ever wonder how much electricity your household appliances use? Well the Electric Ireland appliance calculator makes it easy to find out.
It’s good to know that there are still some easy ways to save money throughout the house, especially as we have to pay the household charge (and/or the incurred fines) and now there’s these new water meters on the way as well. So if you have five minutes to spare over the next day or so, then check out the Electric Ireland appliance calculator. It could end up saving you a small fortune in the long run.
So what exactly does this appliance calculator do? Well, it does a number of things. You can use the calculator to estimate how much your household electrical appliances and lights cost to run.
This is great as you can see how much it costs you when a light is left on overnight and how much that hour under the power shower is really setting you back. There’s even a section that shows you how much it’s costing to run your games consoles.
That’s another great aspect of the calculator, whereby you can compare the cost of using appliances in different ways, such as how much power is consumed while you’re actually playing your PS3 as opposed to when it’s on standby. If you’re a sucker for standby – okay, you save a few seconds from actually switching the thing off and on, but you’ll be surprised at how much is spent keeping that dastardly little red light glowing.
The calculator lets you see the positive impact of using your appliances wisely, such as using a small ring on your stovetop versus a larger one.
To make things even easier to understand the final cost calculations are based on a 61-day cycle, just like your Electric Ireland bill, so it spells it out for you nice and simple.
Okay, so you won’t go saving millions straight away, but if you do it right and you find out what appliances are really costing you in terms of electricity, at least then you can make a start on setting things straight. That’s when you’ll begin to see the money rolling back into your wallet, which no doubt will be a welcome surprise, and maybe before long you’ll be able to upgrade that one-night, two-star weekend break.
To give your house the once over click the link to the Electric Ireland appliance calculator, and follow the simple instructions. If you’re someone who’s always on the go then fear not as there is also a downloadable mobile calculator app available as well, for both iOS and Android.
