Switch Full
How often do you enter a room to find that the TV is playing to itself or the radio / sound system is booming out to no one? Why do we leave these on? Who are we trying to entertain? Why don't we just switch them off when we are no longer using them? It seems that it is much easier to just finish what we are doing and race out of a room, go off and do something else without hitting the off button and pulling out the power cord. However, by taking an extra few seconds to turn the appliances/electrical equipment off, it not only saves you electricity but could potentially increase the life of the appliance.Â
Below are some ideas that might help you to do this:
1. Identify which appliances in the house are generally left on
- TV / DVD
- Computer / Lap Top
- Chargers
- Sound System / Stereo / Radio
- Play Stations / Wii
- Kettles / Toasters
- Other Kitchen Appliances
- Air conditioners / Fans
- Heaters
- Tools
2. Are these appliances usually left
- Turned on fully
- Turned off but not switched off at the wall
- Left in stand by mode
- Left in power saving mode
3. Use some reminders
- Put a post it note on the fridge "Out of bounds - don't enter this fridge until the computer / TV / stereo etc are turned off"
- Put a note in the book you are reading "Don't start this new chapter until I confirm I have switched off the appliances"
- Stick a reminder on the TV / remote "Before I settle down to my favourite programme have I switched off the computer /Â stereo etc?"
- Put up a note on your desktop of your PC "Before I become engrossed in my computer, have I turned off the TV /Â stereo /Â kitchen appliances?"
- Hang something on the door handle 'Before I enter this room have I turned off all electrical equipment and appliances?"
- Hang a note in the kitchen "Before I leave this room I will have turned off all the appliances"
- Have a card beside the bed "Before I go to sleep, have I turned everything off"
4. Educate your family members including your children
- Find out if there is a particular family member who is the worse culprit at leaving things on and help them to change their habits
- Teach your family members and children about saving electricity
- Explain to them why you are doing this
- Get them to all play the game as well
- Get them to help create the reminders
- Keep them committed especially with their own personal electrical equipment and appliancesÂ
5. Set a family challenge with some rewards
- Lets see if we can save $x of electricity this month / quarter and if we can we will all go for a family outing
- If we can turn off the appliances for the next fortnight we will go to the museum
- If you turn off your electrical equipment over the next month, we will have a family BBQ and games nightÂ

How can I switch out my bathtub (full surround unit) and do it cheap?
My house was built in the 70's and my bathtub is one of those fiberglass one piece units. The worst thing is that it's peach in color and has hard water stains corroded on the bottom. I can't do the bathfitter deal because it's not two pieces. I was told that you would have to take the wall out in order to remove it but then someone else told me they could just cut it and take it out that way. I would just like to replace it with a basic white or ivory tub system with some shelving inside. Thanks to all who answer!
I have a full surround fiberglass unit, not tile! So, resurfacing is not an option and even if it was I wouldn't do it since the tub is a horrid peach color!!
You can have this done. But almost nothing in the bathroom is cheap.
Have you considered having it resurfaced? They should be able to do the tile and the tub. You could check and see if this is something you could do yourself.
Do some more calling about the resurfacing costs in your area.
Good Luck.
