Clever Ways to Save on Electricity
Posted On: July 14, 2022
It is never too late to start saving electricity. When it comes to your energy consumption, there are about a million and one tweaks you can make that do not require you to go out on a limb. The little changes you do can make a world of difference once they add up.
In today’s blog, we talk about clever ways you can start saving electricity. Read so you can start saving TODAY!
- Install high-performance films on your windows.
There are a variety of easy-to-install window films in the market today that can help prevent harmful UV rays from entering your home. Not only do these films protect your furniture but can also help keep your home well insulated –which makes for a more efficient use of your HVAC system.
- Fill your fridge to the brim.
A loosely packed refrigerator and freezer can use up a whole lot of energy. Make an effort to stuff as much things in your fridge to prevent hot air from penetrating whenever someone opens the door.
- Upgrade your refrigerator.
Investing in a new refrigerator may be a bit expensive but can be beneficial in the long run. Newer models are more energy efficient and cost far less to operate compared to older models.
If you have an old rickety fridge from the 1990s, you might want to consider investing in a new one to save more on your next electric bill.
- Air dry your clothes.
Well, not all of them. You can opt to air-dry clothes made from lighter fabrics to save on energy. You can opt to air-dry clothes that you normally wear around the house since they don’t have to look as presentable as the clothes you wear outside.
- Go for fuller load.
Instead of washing your clothes in several small batches, opt to do them in fuller loads. Washing your clothes in several batches consume the same amount of water and electricity as full loads so make the wise move and wash clothes in bigger batches, instead.
- Cover your floor.
Carpets and rugs can help keep the heat inside your home – reducing the strain on your heating system. They not only do they retain the heat really well but can also make any space in your home warmer and cosier.
- Giving your HVAC some TLC.
Investing in a routine check up can help you save energy in the long run. A well-maintained HVAC system runs more efficiently and uses less electricity.

Very impressed they arrive to quote even though I had forgotten to call them back to confirm date & time. They showed the day before installation to deliver the unit. Returned the next day as promised at 9am. Project was completed in a professional manner. They even fixed a few things that they noticed were not installed correctly, or to code by previous heating & air contractors we had at our residence before. Would recommend this company to everyone!

Greg removed old oil furnace and oil tank from basement relocated new Napoleon propane furnace to allow duct work to be rerouted to a much more suitable location. Moved air conditioner to the new furnace. Dave recommended two available grants to assist with cost. They kept to their original quoted price which was substantially lower than a competitors for the same furnace and work. They completed the work as stated when stated and left the area clean and tidy. We are very pleased with the outcome.

We had Grant and Greg Dainty quote to replace our 20 yr old furnace. I have known them for years and have had other jobs done by them ( AC and Pool Htr). The price was very reasonable and the job was completed in one day.

TwinTech was the right choice. Our consultation with Dave set the tone. Professional and knowledgeable, we even received a follow-up call within hours of our install completion, wow! TwinTech arrived as scheduled to install our A/C unit. Within minutes of arrival Greg noted and explained a few out of code faults on our furnace installed by another company, problems fixed, thanks TwinTech. Greg, Grant and "Subaru" Pete were meticulous start to finish. Highly recommended!

Twintech replaced our aging +20 yrs old Furnace & AC with the variable high efficiency Napoleon Furnace matched with the Goodman AC. Sales guy ,Dave was great, gave a no pressure estimate, explained about the Government Rebate program which they took care of completely including arranging the home energy audit. On the scheduled day Greg and his team arrived on time, did a great job and completed the same day , extremely professional and courteous, cleaned up everything , tested the system, Greg took his time to explain the setup. Very impressed with the Napoleon Furnace 9600 which did a great job in maintaining a comfortable temperature last winter and now with the hot weather the Goodman AC cooled the house in much less time than the old AC unit could ever. From start to finish Twintech were great and have no hesitation in recommending them 100%.

The Twintech team did an excellent job installing our new Goodman air conditioner. They were polite and professional. Greg was knowledgeable and clearly experienced. Thank you Twintech for bringing our cooling system up to current regulations. Job well done!

Dave from TwinTech was very knowledgeable, professional and thorough in the buying process. He helped us to identify the best furnace for our home and our budget. When we needed a new filter a year later and seemed to have a problem finding the right one, I called Dave up and he delivered a filter to me the next day! The cost was on par with other retailers, but it was this unexpected personal service that really was impressive. The furnace? Works like a charm.

Imagine, it's 5 minutes after the midnight countdown New Year's eve and the furnace quits. We called TwinTech fully expecting to leave a message and actually spoke with Greg, one of the owners! We had an immediate repair early the next morning & a new furnace within the week. We have entrusted TwinTech with all our home HVAC service needs for over 6 years. That's why this week with an opportunity to purchase a new BBQ, we called them 1st to see about a gas line install. It's chicken on the grill tonight! They are efficient, reliable, honest, hard working, and -- attentive is an understatement.

Wonderful customer service, starting from the job quote (Dave), to the clean install, to the follow-up. Twintech is a small company which installed my Napoleon furnace, A/C, John Wood tank, and ran the line for my gas dryer. The installation was completed as promised in one day. The work area was kept very clean, and they even took care of my old rental tank. The professionalism and wonderful customer service is second to none. They completed all of my rebate paperwork, and now I'm getting $2000 back! You will not be disappointed if you hire this company for your project.
