5 Gifts That Will Save You Energy This Year<\/span><\/h2>\n

At Georgia Gas Savings we\u2019re dedicated to saving you money on your natural gas bills. But that\u2019s not all we do – as Georgia\u2019s leading provider of <\/span>great rates on natural gas<\/span><\/a>, we want our customers to save money across the board. As well as finding the best rates, you can also save money by cutting back on the energy you use in the home. Here are a few of our favorite gift ideas – treat yourself or someone you love to the gift of great savings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep Costs Down With Nest<\/span><\/h3>\n

One of the new millennium\u2019s coolest inventions has been the creation of \u201csmart home\u201d technology. Creating a linked network within your home has never been easier, and the <\/span>Nest thermostat<\/span><\/a> is perhaps the best way to get started. By learning your daily routine, and cleverly adapting your home\u2019s environment to perfectly suit your needs, Nest can make sure you\u2019re only paying to heat or cool your house when you really need to. In fact, you can even get a <\/span>free Nest thermostat with the Infinite Energy Nest plan<\/span><\/a>. Why not switch today?<\/span><\/p>\n

Delicious Savings – Cooking Gadgets<\/span><\/h3>\n

Pressure cookers and slow cookers are fantastic ways to make delicious meals while saving on energy bills. Both systems use far less energy than the equivalent traditional methods would. A slow cooker uses <\/span>very little more energy than a lightbulb<\/span><\/a>, so even if you leave it running all day it\u2019ll still only use a third of the power that your oven does. Remember, if you\u2019re looking to <\/span>save energy with home appliances<\/span><\/a>, you should always check the efficiency rating first. <\/span><\/p>\n

Seal Your Crawl Space<\/span><\/h3>\n

Many homes in the <\/span>Atlanta Gas & Light service area<\/span><\/a> have unsealed crawlspaces. Over winter, the cold air and moisture trapped beneath your floorboard will leach heat from your home. <\/span>Your unsealed crawlspace is costing you money<\/span><\/a> as your heating has to work harder, and can also introduce mold and mildew into your home. <\/span>Invest in crawlspace encapsulation<\/span><\/a> to help prevent this, and to save money on your natural gas bill. <\/span><\/p>\n

High Efficiency Light Systems<\/span><\/h3>\n

An easy fix, this one – simply swap out incandescent bulbs for modern LED equivalents. Although they\u2019re more expensive, these bulbs consume only about <\/span>\u2153 to 1\/30th of standard incandescent bulbs<\/span><\/a>, and will help you cut back on power bills. Make strategic swaps; pick bulbs that are in use all the time, such as the kitchen and living room.<\/span><\/p>\n

Invest In A New Gas Furnace<\/span><\/h3>\n

Well, it isn\u2019t the most exciting gift, but if you\u2019re looking to <\/span>save money on gas this year<\/span><\/a> then a new furnace could be the best investment you could make. Modern systems aren\u2019t just more efficient, they\u2019re more reliable and safer, too, making them an excellent way to spend money. Look for <\/span>certified \u201cEnergy Star\u201d furnaces<\/span><\/a> that provide up to 11% savings on your natural gas bill.<\/span><\/p>\n
