Etherblue Blog Ways of Saving Electric Power and Reducing Power Bill

Category:LifestyleAwnings can save energy for your home and reduce your power bill. They can be attached to the top of a window or on any wall facing the sun. Awnings are defined to be any membranous sheath that provides shade from the sun and/or protects the ground immediately below from rain.In the summer season, Awnings will prevent sunlight from entering the home and more importantly, from hitting the wall of the home. But in the winter season, awnings allow light as well as heat to enter the room due to the lower angle the sun makes with the horizon. Hence, an awning keeps the house warm in winter and cool in summer. This results in less consumption of conventional power in both summer and winter and thus, a lower electricity bill.Window awnings can be made of canvas, aluminum, cotton, hardwood or iron. Typical awning designs were made of cotton and/or polyester, but generally, modern awnings are created with canvas, aluminum, iron, steel, wood and other materials.The price of an awning is quite low and it is easy to install. Get creative and design and make your own.Tags:Saving Electric Powerelectricityawningreducing electric billlower power consumption
