With this simple note, you can get them thinking if they really need to use the electricity. We strongly suggest you make the same note also for water usage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Unplug_the_machines_that_are_not_in_use\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>2.

Think about computer that you leave it open even when you are not in the office. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\">Do your clients really need a TV in the gym? Is an ambiental light in the sauna really necessary, even if there are no clients? Does all the cardio equipment need to be plugged in all the time even if nobody is using it?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Change_all_the_light_bulbs\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\">3.

Yes, it&#8217;s an investment, but you will see on your monthly electricity bill that it is worth it! It can make 10X the difference between a cheap and a cost-efficient light bulb.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Change_the_electrical_cardio_machines_to_air_rowers_and_air_bikes\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\">4.

Cardio machines are one of the biggest consumers of electricity in all gyms. Think about all the monitors and electro motors that need the power to work. If you change your cardio machines that work on electricity to an Air based cardio machines like <a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/royal-air-rower\/\">Air rowers<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/assault-bike\/\">Air bikes<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/royal-runner-2-0\/\">Air runners<\/a>, you don&#8217;t need any plug-ins. Your clients are powering the machine and burning energy at the same time&#8230;and if you think about it, this is exactly why they came to your gym in the first place.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Limit_hot_shower_time\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\"><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong>5.

Make a switch that will limit the hot water usage per person. This is how you can save a lot of money.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Lower_the_temperature_in_the_gym\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\">6.

Your clients will warm up on Air runners and Air rowers&#8230; not by heating systems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Limit_the_usage_of_hair_dryers\"><\/span><span style=\"font-size: 18pt\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif;color: #242424\">7.

Try to limit the time that your customers are using it. If you can, make them pay 1\u20ac for the usage, we promise you, the usage will decrease.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif\">With these simple steps, you can get your energy costs down, get your margin up and invest back in the business.
