Has my electricity bill ever not been a complete surprise to me? No. I mean, I try to conserve, try to estimate it. I know constantly running the A/C in the summer really impacts things, but it’s still always a surprise when I open the bill.
Frankly, this aspect of our household expenses is long overdue for re-evaluation.
What if we could get an idea of what was going on with our electricity usage without even lifting a finger?
Reliant has a new offer that can help us with this exact thing. Right now, when you sign up for the Reliant Truly Free Weekends plan, you’ll get a FREE Google Home Hub (the new 7″ smart display that includes Google Assistant).
Are you familiar with Google Home Hub yet? You can listen to music, watch videos, make shopping lists, get the latest news, weather, traffic, sports, etc. You can even use it as a digital picture frame – having that display is such a good feature. It’s also easy to integrate with other smart aspects of your home. If you have a Nest thermostat, for example, you can control your temp with commands like “Hey Google, make it warmer.”
On top of all the cool stuff you can do with a Google Home Hub, Reliant can now give you data and visuals on the screen to help with your energy management (and keep that monthly bill from being a surprise).
All you have to do is ask.
“Hey Google, ask Reliant, how much electricity am I using?”
You’ll even get an estimate of your expected weekly electricity charges.
“Hey Google, ask Reliant, how much is my bill?”
Not to be too nerdy about it, but I LOVE data. Having your usage info right in front of you means you can easily make adjustments to save money. You can also set a reminder for Google to notify you automatically when your free weekends with Reliant begin (FYI, it’s 8pm Friday to Midnight Sunday).
Here’s another cool thing you can do on Google Home Hub that is very futuristic and Star Trek-y:
Set up personalized daily routines, so you can then just say “Hey Google, good morning.” This will launch any reminders, the day’s weather forecast, commute updates. You can also set up an evening routine. Say “Hey Google, good night” to lower the thermostat, turn off lights, set an alarm for the morning, and much more. That’s such an easy way to lower your electricity bill without even thinking about it.
If all this sounds good to you, the next step is simple: sign up for the Reliant Truly Free Weekends plan and receive a Google Home Hub at no cost by visiting www.reliant.com or calling 1-866-Reliant.
