Introduction:
In our daily routines, certain habits might be silently increasing our household expenses. Recognizing and adjusting these behaviors can lead to significant savings over time.
1. Leaving Appliances on Standby
Many appliances consume energy even when not in active use. Turning off devices completely can reduce unnecessary electricity consumption.
2. Overfilling the Kettle
Boiling more water than needed wastes both water and energy. Only boil the amount you intend to use.
3. Ignoring Drafts
Unsealed windows and doors can let in cold air, causing heating systems to work harder. Sealing drafts can improve energy efficiency.
4. Washing Clothes at High Temperatures
Modern detergents are effective at lower temperatures. Washing at 30°C can save energy and protect fabrics.
5. Using the Tumble Dryer Excessively
Tumble dryers consume a lot of energy. Whenever possible, air-dry clothes to cut down on electricity usage.
