The exact length your shower should be to save you cash on your bills & the tricks that could bank you £110 per month

AN energy whizz has shared his top recommendations to help you save over £100 on bills every month.

With the cost-of-living crisis soaring, millions of Britons are on the lookout for ways to slash the costs - but what if didn't have to switch off any appliances to save money?

One energy guru believes that is possible - and in fact, Tom Cranenburgh, from Get An Offer, insisted that asking the nation to turn off their devices during the peak season was doomed to fail.

To ensure the country doesn't go back to the dark ages, Tom spoke to The Express and offered a couple of tips that will bank you £110 every month.

Boil what you need in the kettle

We all love a hot drink, especially in the colder months.

But when it comes to filling up the kettle, make sure you boil only what you need.

According to the guru, by avoiding overfilling you could save £11 on electricity bills.

Change the temperature on your thermostat

Some experts have revealed that 19C is the average home temperature across the nation, but if you enjoy slightly cosier temperatures, remember that every degree you turn your thermostat down you will save roughly £50 a year.

Timely energy usage

Research suggests that daytime energy costs tend to be far higher than other times of day.

According to Comparethemarket, some energy providers charge less for using electricity at certain times of day or night.

Offering a helping hand, Tom advised Britons to check with their provider to find out if they offer cheaper prices for off-peak electricity.

This, he revealed, could bank you £35 a year - cha-ching!

Use an eco-function

Another easy way to save yourself some cash is by using the eco-function wherever possible, he advised.

For example, Tom said, turning your dishwasher onto the “eco setting” or “energy saving mode” could save £14 a month - which works out to be a whopping £160 every year.

Four-minute showers

We get it - it's cold outside and nothing hits the spot quite like a long, relaxing shower.

But if you're looking to save money on bills, Tom advised to cut down your shower time to four minutes - this easy switch could bank £100 over the course of the year.

Draughts

Not only do draughts make for a cold room, gaps in windows and under the door could be costing you money.

According to the energy whizz, it's a worthwhile investment to draught-proof windows and doors - this could save you £45 a year.

Use a microwave

Quick and easy to use, microwave - also known as 'Chef Mike' -is another great way to help with the rising energy bills.

Tom insisted that by simply switching to this appliance just four times a week could save you £58 a year.

Vacuum your fridge

Although it may sound rather unusual, the industry pro revealed that heavy dust on the condenser coils at the back of the fridge can prevent a fridge or freezer from cooling properly.

So when you get a chance, vacuum your fridge - not doing so could cost a whopping £45 more each year.
