Electricity saving hack
Does your bathroom exhaust fan get left on? To avoid wasting power, to save wear on the fan, and (most important) to prevent the fan from overheating, contract an electrician to install a domestic “Run-on Timer” at the exhaust fan switch. Your electrician will pre-set the run-on timer to your preference, between 2 and 20 minutes. When you press the fan button, the timer counts down to the pre-set time and turns off the fan automatically. If you want it to run longer, press the button and it will again run for the pre-set time. These brilliant little devices are inexpensive, increase home safety and are cost-saving. They can be fitted to lights, fans or similar electrical devices. I had one installed in the bathroom of my previous house, and I had one installed when I moved into my current house. These timers can also be fitted to internal or external lights. My electrician was so impressed with how well the device worked, that he installed one in the bathroom of his own home as well. Save money and increase safety at the same time.
