Every resident likes to save money on monthly bills in Noblesville, but is it truly possible when you reside in an apartment? While it would be great to slash your monthly rent, instead, consider your energy expenses.

Whether you reside in a studio or a three-bedroom apartment, there are numerous tips on how you can save money on monthly bills in your Noblesville apartment.

Air filter HVAC maintenance in Noblesville

Replace Your Furnace Air Filter and Burn Less Energy

Plugged up air filters force your HVAC system to run harder and burn more energy. Grimy filters mean a more expensive utility bill for you. A fresh filter will not only make your HVAC system run more efficiently, but it should also help prevent inconvenient breakdowns. Anyone who's had the heat fail in the middle of a cold winter night will say it's well worth inspecting and changing your filter.

You can find an air filter at any big box or home improvement retailer. Just make sure you purchase the proper size, as a bigger apartment may take a larger air filter than a one-bedroom. You might also like to see if the maintenance team supplies their own replacements. Look at the filter each month, even if it's designed to work for 90 days. If you hold it in front of a light and aren’t able to see through it, that's an excellent indication you’re ready for a replacement.

Smart lights in a Noblesville apartment

Save Money on Monthly Bills with LED Bulbs

There are numerous bright ideas about saving money on monthly bills in Noblesville, but one of the best is with interior lighting. LED bulbs require smaller amounts of electricity than common filament lights and last much longer. If you're uneasy about the first purchase price, don't be. The cost of LED bulbs has decreased substantially through the years, and there are many budget-friendly options.

The savings here is two-fold, as not only will you cut power waste, you'll also benefit from not needing to get replacement bulbs as frequently. Talk to your unit’s office team as they may prefer LED bulbs and provide you with them!

Automate Those New Lights With Smart Bulbs

Do you know your Google Home or Amazon Echo does more than only play that song you're dying to listen to? Using a smart light or smart plug, you can control lights through your phone app or voice commands.

If you forget to turn off a light you can do so straight from the app rather than letting it burn the whole day. Or limit your power consumption even further by putting your lights on a schedule to switch on and off automatically.

These innovative and helpful solutions offer peace of mind in additional ways. If you're away visiting relatives or on a work trip, you can set your lights to activate automatically. You can give the illusion and make it look like you're home by setting the light to come on at the standard time you arrive home.
