I’m an inventor – a simple device could stop energy being sucked out your home and slash bills by £90
I’m an inventor – a simple device could stop energy being sucked out your home and slash bills by £90

AN INVENTOR has revealed how a little known chimney trick could help you to slash your energy bills.
Simon Wild invented the Chimella chimney umbrella, and often shares his best energy saving hacks on TikTok.

In a recent video, Simon said your chimney could be driving up your energy bills.
Failing to draught proof your chimney â which keeps cold air out and hot air in your home â could be driving up your bills.
Hot air is drawn out through your chimney even when you’re not using it.
If you’ve got the heating on, then a lot of it will be lost.
It comes after energy bills were capped at £2,500 a year for the average household last month.
But it was announced during the Autumn Budget that a new £3,000 cap will come into force for 24million people on standard variable tariffs after April.
Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do to buffer yourself against crippling hikes.
But reducing your energy usage can save you money â including draught proofing your chimney correctly.
In a recent video, the inventor said: “With energy prices being the highest they’ve ever been, we’ve got to look at energy efficiency in the home.
“One of the quickest and easiest measures you can take is to block off your chimney.
“Because when you’re not using that fireplace, that chimney acts like an open window 24 hours a day, seven days a week â sucking all the heat out of your house.
“So if you want to save on your energy bills, don’t waste the energy in the first place.”;
