Don’t we all, right? If you’re reading this, you’re likely one of millions of UK residents who would happily agree with the title statement, ‘I want to save money every month’. Saving money on expenses such as utilities, like gas and electricity, will allow us to have more disposable income for the things we care about, like doing nice things with our friends and family.
On this page we will look at five really easy ways that you can save money every month.
Upgrade your boiler
Taking the time to upgrade your boiler can save you many thousands of pounds. If the average mortgage of a house is 25 years, a new boiler at the start of that time period could equate to around £15,000 in savings! £50 a month is the average saving that a new and modern boiler can save when compared to an old ‘G-rated boiler’. The only downside is the cost of purchase and installation, which may be around £3,000 and could take five years to break even.
Insulation
We are big fans of some of the insulation types on the market right now, especially Icynene spray foam. Insulation keep your walls, ceilings and roof from allowing cold air to get inside and warm air to escape, meaning that there is less of a reliance on your central heating system to keep the house warm. Insulation is also a perfect way to stop drafts, which can account for more than 10% of the warm air lost in a home. If you’re saying ‘I want to save money every month’, you should be getting on a search engine and finding the best insulation for you, or go here.
