Energy Saving Tips
Heating and cooling: On average Australian homes use 38% of their total energy consumption on heating and cooling. Get Amped can review your current heating and cooling appliances and can help you install newer and more energy effecient appliances.
Lighting: You can save over 500 kWh of electricity per year simply by changing six 75 Watt incandescent bulbs for 14 Watt energy efficient compact fluorescent globes or even more by switching to LED Lighting. For all your lighting solutions, Get Amped can help you replace your current lights with the latest technology lights and give your household a fantastic new look. Stop wasting money on old incandescent bulbs. Bring your home into the 21st century and help the environment with the latest in LED lighting solutions.
We use the latest technology in LED lighting to give your space that impressive look, while being highly energy efficient. Newly developed LED downlight technology from LG Innotek allows for the simple replacement of the LED chips as opposed to replacing the whole housing when your LED eventually fails. This cuts down on manufacturing costs, making LEDs even more affordable and also lowers installation costs as no rewiring is required; simply clip in a new LED chip! LED lights are quickly becoming a popular choice of lighting for the home due to their efficiency, lifespan, and design properties.
For outdoor lighting solutions, taking advantage of the sun is a great way to lower your energy costs while still getting a beautiful look for your garden. Solar lights have improved dramatically in recent years meaning solar lighting can produce the same amount of lumens as wired LED’s but for free! We use Top Frog Energy for all of our solar lighting, LED lighting and energy efficient devices and are proud to help support a local business.Give Get Amped a call to discuss your dream lighting design for your bar, home, office, or backyard today.
Appliances: Standby power is estimated to account for up to 9% of a home’s electricity consumption; turning off appliances at the powerpoint can save up to 800 kWh per year. Get Amped can install the best Electrical Monitoring Systems which will allow you to track all your energy saving initiatives. These systems can also monitor your solar power production.
Kitchen: Fridges and freezers are the biggest energy user in most kitchens, they operate at peak efficiency when full, so choose one that’s the right size for your needs. Fridge compressors should only cycle on about 30% of the time. If your fridge is running more often than this, you may require a new fridge or maintenance to your current fridge. As mentioned earlier, energy monitoring systems are a great way to monitor your appliances efficiency. Talk to your Get Amped electrician if you have concerns about your power usage.
Hot water: Household hot water accounts for 25% of home energy usage on average. Switching from a high flow inefficient showerhead to a 3 star rated showerhead can reduce your use by half. Contact Get Amped if your are in need of a new energy efficient hot water system.
