I will put a curtain over the front door asap too. Thank you for all those ideas, I will look into overnight electricity - I have just switched my supplier today so will wait to find out what they offer. but meanwhile put the immersion on to heat up the hot water on cheap overnight rate electricity, you could always ask a Customer Home Service Rep to come and have a chat with you about making savings. if he could:rolleyes: I also turn the central heating off overnight and time it to come back on at 7 a.m. turn thermostats down a tadge, leave airing cupboard door open ajar to heat upstairs, if you have a cold kitchen to get up to in the morning put some water into the slow cooker/or porridge and leave it on slow overnight, this makes the kitchen lovley and warm when you get up, put a curtain over the front door if its draughty, check to see if your Electricity Board do a cheap overnight rate, ours does, so I set the washing machine, breadmaker and slow cooker to all come on at 1 a.m., my DH would have us all up and showering at 3 a.m. ![]() Is there any other way you could make savings i.e. I think that you would cancel out any savings if you had to respin the wash. Do you think that would cancel out the savings I could make on a 30 degree wash?įunny enough I saw a T.V advert last night for a soap poweder that washes clean on 30 degrees wash, I made the comment that I did not think 30 deg would be hot enough to get out the dirt and stains, like you I wash on 40 deg for a daily wash and if I have something stained I spray some vanish on first, this works for me, also if its whites only I add some soda crystals. Has anyone tried this at 30 degrees?Īlso the only 30 degree programme on my machine has a slow spin, so I would then need to put each wash through a fast spin too. I am trying to find ways of cutting the gas and electricity we are using (got a car load of FREE logs today!!):jĪt the moment I am using one washing tablet (Asda's own bio) and half a cup of washing soda in each wash at 40 degrees with good results.
