Monsoon is here—bringing cooler weather, damp walls, and… surprise electricity bills? 😧 While we expect bills to drop due to reduced fan and AC usage, many Indian households actually face unexpected spikes in power usage during this season.
Let’s explore why this happens and how you can reduce your electricity bills during monsoons with simple, smart changes—all Vizzve-recommended.
Geysers run longer due to colder water
Refrigerators overwork due to high humidity
Dryers & washing machines get used more as clothes don’t dry outside
Leakage or moisture causes appliance inefficiency
Lights stay on longer due to overcast skies
Vizzve’s Smart Tips to Save Electricity in Rainy Season
1.Maximize Natural Light
Open windows and curtains fully during the day
Use light-colored interiors to reflect sunlight
2.Switch Off Standby Appliances
Turn off unused TVs, routers, kitchen gadgets
Plug multiple items into one switchboard to control easily
3.Optimize Geyser Usage
Set the thermostat to 45–50°C, not max
Use bucket water instead of long showers
4. Use Washing Machines Smartly
Wash full loads, not half
Skip dryer; hang clothes under covered balconies
5. Clean Fans & AC Filters
Dirty filters consume more energy
AC humidity control mode uses less power than cooling mode
6. Unplug During Lightning Storms
Protect electronics from voltage surges
Use surge protectors or stabilizers
Bonus Vizzve Eco Tip: Invest in Solar + Inverter Combo
Even in monsoon, solar panels store power during the day. An inverter can power lights, fans, and TV—cutting reliance on the main grid.
Final Thoughts from Vizzve
Monsoon comfort shouldn’t cost you extra. With these simple switches, your home can stay cozy and cost-efficient—rain or shine.
Stay dry. Stay bright. Spend smart with Vizzve.
