Dimmer switches, ceiling fans, new air conditioners & light bulbs

Various saving programs from www.saveonenergy.ca expire on Nov. 5

Many local contractors participate in these rebate opportunities

We (the hydro grid) create energy through wind turbines, nuclear power, waterfalls, solar power, ground sources, and fossil fuels (generators).
Everyone wants to conserve energy. Everyone wants lower hydro bills. 
Now is a good time to invest in future savings.
Some families are no longer members of the grid as they produce their own power through solar panels on the roof of their home.
The promotions department at Save On Energy wants to supply hints on how all households can save on hydro today and in the future.
www.saveonenergy.ca


Until Nov. 5, there are retail savings available on appliances and light bulbs and other everyday hydro gadgets.
Look at www.saveonenergy.ca for a full list of hydro-reduction ideas and current specials at many of your favourite retails outlets (pun intended). There are coupons for items ranging from power bars to dimming switches, and LED light bulbs to programmable thermostats, and electrical timers to insulation blankets and ceiling fans. There are promos advertised for weather stripping too, and I’m staying away from any puns on that insulation and air leakage item.
The insulation blankets – by the way – are not comforters to keep your toes warm, but rather wraps for electric hot water heaters.
If you thought that the spring of 2018 would be a great time to retire you clothes dryer during the warmer months, you should buy a clothesline as they are on special right now.
The SaveOnEnergy specials continue only until Nov. 5.


If you need to purchase a new high efficiency furnace of central air unit, there are programs available right now that include substantial rebates, including up to $600 for a central air unit.
When I did a search using my postal code for available contractors, the first 5 displayed were all Woodstock installers.
The website features videos, press releases, and complete explanations on topics such as higher efficient appliances and tips on where and how to save hydro in your home.
If you’re in Ingersoll or other areas not part of the Hydro One umbrella, you can locate your ‘coupons’ and ‘rebates’ by entering your postal code or by visiting the local hydro supplier website such as www.eriethamespower.com
Some of these savings will not be seen immediately, but long term on your overall kilowatt useage. In some cases you may feel safer by hiring an electrician to install contraptions such as dimmer switches, but certainly the long-term savings are there
