Weather Alert: Heat: As the heat goes up - Bring your costs Down


(Buffalo, NY) – Motioncenter.info:


(Second of a Series)

Yesterday, Motion Center.info offered links to resources to help keep your pets, driving and health safe during the current 90+ weather we have been having throughout the Western New York Region.

As we move into the second full day of a recent heat wave since Independence Day, Montioncenter.info is offering some important and money saving ideas that may result in more some money and energy savings

A. Turn off the Air Conditioner: This doesn’t mean that you have to melt into a puddle in your home or apartment. Many air conditions have a thermostat setting. This setting allows automated management of the temperature. This allows for efficient cooling of your living space while offering money savings.

B. Turn on the Air Conditioner: Living near Lake Ontario and Lake Erie, we have the opportunity to use a natural air conditioner while spending time outside and with others.

C. Replace air conditioner filters; over time these filters may become clogged and decrease your conditioner’s efficiency.

D. Turn off the lights. During the summer, it is a well known fact that daylight hours are at a maximum, but some continue to turn lights on, or leave lights on. Excessive accent lighting and security lighting can add up over time and cause a higher energy bill. Using LED lighting, candles, wind-up and battery powered radios, can reduce your power bills to an amazing amount.

E. Planning ahead for your end of season landscaping needs, including plants possible major purchases resulting in tax deductions, including koy ponds and water fixtures can add to a otherwise blah space and be a very small investment.

F. Money saving, single bill, multi-play, combined, everything on one bill, TV – internet – phone packages, are they really worth it? Maybe not. It all depends on your individual use of the products and your lifestyle. If you plan to spend a lot of time in your apartment watching television and speaking on the phone then maybe it is a good idea, otherwise you may want to consider a HP laptop with a Wi-Fi antenna on-board and a cheap laptop or VIOP. You may enjoy the freedom of mobility, the computing power or a full laptop with free internet access. The money you save with these options can place money in your pocket that is better spent on your next trip through downtown on a weekend night, or on a trip through the Niagara Wine Trail.

G. Keep to a budget and understand what are the real items that are mandatory, usually rent, car insurance, any legal fees you may have (parking tickets, speeding tickets etc.) are normally the only costs that are not negotiable.

Have a great and safe summer. The more you think outside the box, the more money you can save, meaning you gain more wealth to use on your terms. When you live on your own terms, you are that much freer.
