That way you won't run out of energy during winter months, and you will have more than enough in the summer. Combining this method with a net utilities plan will mean getting back money from the electric company during the summer, too.

| − | Hot water can be obtained in a low cost, environmentally friendly manner through solar energy. There are many solar hot-water appliances to get the job done.
