Household Energy Costs

Here at Sokolis we are used to finding fleet fuel discounts and matching clients with compatible fleet fuel cards. So what does a fuel management company do at home to combat the home energy issue, you’re about to find out!

Let’s start with averages. According to The Home Energy Saver the average natural gas furnace costs about .60 – .80 cents an hour, a gas dryer can cost .16 cents a load. Your typical oil water heater will be up to .75 cents a day. That is just a few, imagine including all the appliances we use, coffee maker, refrigerator, hair dryer, lighting, clocks and dishwashers. Its no wonder the walk to the mailbox may seem so long.

Sokolis not only tries to keep our office as environmentally friendly as possible but we bring our work home and try to cut energy costs at home by:

  • When possible purchase energy efficient appliance
  • Turning off lights when not in a room
  • Using CFL light bulbs
  • Turning off computer monitors when not in use
