You can reduce your electricity bill by following very simple recommendations. The amount of your payments will decrease by 10-15%, and at the same time you will not greatly limit yourself in something.
We save on downtime. Use a power-saving mode on your computer (sleep mode). Unplug TVs and other devices that are in standby mode from the outlet. Do not leave chargers plugged in after use.
We select the right bulbs. Pay attention to energy saving light bulbs. They are not expensive at all, but they save enough electricity, giving you the same bright light as ordinary bulbs. In addition, energy-saving bulbs are guaranteed for at least 1 year, and if they fail, you can replace them with a new one free of charge.
We install local light sources. Do not use a permanently large ceiling chandelier with multiple bulbs. Install small lamps (sconces, floor lamp) with one light bulb. And it will be more convenient for you, and the savings on electricity are significant.
When leaving, turn off the light. Make it a rule for yourself to turn off the lights when you leave the room. Even for a short time. Also, don't leave the TV on when you don't need it.
We are cleaning. Dirty windows let light through worse. An uncleaned vacuum cleaner filter reduces air draft and increases energy consumption. Dust accumulating on the shades takes up to 20% of the light. We often wipe dust from windows and shades, as well as clean filters and vacuum cleaner bags.
We use the washing machine correctly. Pay attention to the washing programs. Pre-wash, which is not always necessary, consumes up to 30% of the energy from the work of a complete wash cycle.
We are attentive to the refrigerator. To make the refrigerator consume less energy, we place it away from the battery and stove. Also, do not forget to completely chill the cooked food before placing it in the refrigerator.
Choosing the right electrical appliances. When buying electrical appliances, pay attention to the energy saving class. To reduce power consumption, you need to look for equipment with class "A". This technique is a little more expensive, but it pays off and pays off very quickly.
