If you are like most people, you enjoy summer. The sun, blue skies, and warmth are welcomed.

How To Keep Your Electric Bill Low This Summer

There are certain things that you can do to keep your electric bill low this summer. Here are some of them:

• REDUCE AIR CONDITIONING

Turn down the air conditioning. Let the air flow through the open windows to get a breeze throughout your home or apartment.

• USE DIRECT SUNLIGHT

Instead of having the electric lights on, use the direct sunlight as long as you can. The days are longer in the summer so it's much easier to do than in the winter.

• KEEP DOORS CLOSED

Keep doors to rooms that you are not using closed. This way, if you do use air conditioning, it won't be wasted in certain rooms that you are not using.

These tips should help. You won't overuse your electricity in the summer.
