House Fuel Costs Rise by 20%

Today, nearly every household is absorbing the ever increasing rise in domestic fuel costs whether it be oil or gas especially during winter times when there is a greater dependancy on heating. Rising costs have a bigger impact on households earning lower incomes.

Here are some suggestions which may assist in reducing your overall household running costs,

- Ensure that your home is insulated well. This will certainly help you reduce your overall costs over time.
- When purchasing a new car, try and factor in which car is most economical to you and calculating the total mileage you will require each year. Sometimes a more expensive purchase may prove to be even more economical in the long run therefore don’t opt for the cheaper version without calculating the overall cost over time.
- You can purchase a magnetic device called thermaflow and motoflow which help to save you money on car fuel and household heating. The motoflow can easily be attached to the car’s fuel pipe and according to government figures and testing this can save you approximately 20% of your overall cost.
