A bath fan is one of those things we all take for granted. We assume every house has one in each bathroom. Unfortunately, this is not always the case. While you may simply chalk it up to a little something extra that isn’t really needed, it really is a necessity. A bath fan is a must have if you want to preserve the quality of the walls and flooring in your home. If you are wondering why, listen to your electrician. Beverly Hills homeowners can count on the experts at The Electric Connection to steer them in the right direction when it comes to taking care of electrical needs.

A bath fan pulls moisture out of the air that is generated by hot showers. You have probably seen the condensation on your mirror after a shower and maybe you have noticed your sink and countertops are damp. A quick wipe with a towel takes care of the obvious moisture, but what about the moisture seeping into your walls and floorboards?

This is a prime environment for mold. You have heard of the dangers of mold and how harmful it can be to your health. Not to mention, mold remediation services can be extremely costly and you may even be displaced from your home for several days.

A bath fan is a simple, inexpensive method of controlling the amount of moisture in your bathroom. Because it involves electrical wiring, you will want to hire an electrician. Beverly Hills homeowners would never trust one of their biggest investments to just anybody, and this is why you want a professional who knows how to safely and securely install a bath fan. Homeowners will have the option of choosing the right fan and will be pleased with the wide variety of fans available on the market today. If you are ready to add or replace an existing fan, give us a call today at The Electric Connection.

As a Richardson electrician, I am in the unique position of knowing how homeowners can save money on their power bill. In today’s economy, my customers expect that I will know how they can lower their power bill each month, and I am happy to share that information with them.

The benefits of having your Richardson electrician give you the inside scoop on moneysaving power alternatives extend well beyond the impact on your bank account. Electricians everywhere will agree that those very same things that you can do to save money on your electric bill can also help you take good care of your electrical system and even prevent costly and time-consuming repairs.

Your local electrician can help you create a plan of action to start saving on your bill, but you can also follow these simple tips to start doing what you can to lower your bill today.

1. The simplest thing you can do is turn it off if it’s not in use. That’s right! Being mindful of your power consumption while you’re trying to save money seems like a no-brainer, but many people overlook this very simple and very effective first step.Turn off the lights if you’re not in the room, turn off televisions and computers if they are not in use, and unplug small appliances that don’t get used often, like hair dryers or toaster ovens.

2. Install solar panels and/or wind turbines on your home to generate alternative sources of energy, ease strain on the power grid and lower your overall usage. Any top Richardson electrician will agree that using alternative energy sources can lower your electric bill to almost nothing while helping the environment.

3. Along the same lines, investing in an indoor generator can also help you become more independent when it comes to your power consumption and it can even help you turn your power bill into a power check from the power company, depending how much power you are able to generate and send back to the grid.

4. Schedule routine electrical maintenance once every one to two years, to check for any electrical problems, to make sure that fixtures are properly in place, and to check if any appliances are in need of repair or replacement. Call your Richardson electrician to schedule a visit to your home to inspect your electrical system.

5. Install a power conditioner to reduce wear and tear on the motors of your most power-hungry appliances and machinery at home, and to lower your power consumption as well.

More and more homeowners are becoming more energy conscious. Concerns about energy use affects everyone. Whether you simply want to save money or you want to reduce your carbon footprint, energy conservation is on everyone’s mind.
