What we noticed
After installing their Basis Board, Brigitte and her family were shocked to learn that their hot water cylinder was using 62% of their home's electricity.
Six people, a four-bedroom home, two showers running back-to-back most mornings. The HWC was working overtime and nobody had any idea.
What changed
With the new insight, they quickly created a hot water routine and switched to a better retail plan. Power use dropped by 21%; total costs dropped by 37%.
Annual electricity bill: $3,612 before Basis, $2,246 after. $1,366 back in the family's pocket every year, with no behaviour change beyond the routine.
Outcome
$1,366 back in the family's pocket every year.
