How to reduce electricity consumption

Decrease in electricity consumption - the complex action consisting of a number of measures. But even if to accept not everything from them, and only some, it is possible to achieve noticeable effect. Having undertaken power saving with all gravity, you will achieve even more considerable results.

Instruction

1. It is the best of all to replace glow lamps with enegrosberegayushchy in all lamps of the apartment without exception. But if you like shade of light of glow lamps, leave such lamps in those lamps where they are low-power (to 25 W). Try not to turn on several such lamps at the same time.

2. Equip rooms with local lamps of small power: sconce, desk lamps, floor lamps. Then, if light is necessary only in certain place of the room, you should not include more powerful chandelier.

3. You should not curtain windows in the afternoon when light, and for compensation of reduction of illumination to turn on the light. It is better to open curtains.

4. Leaving the bathroom or toilet, switch off for yourself lighting of these rooms.

5. If in the hall the emergency lighting is necessary, use LED lamps with power about one watt.

6. Do not leave fridge door for a long time open needlessly.

7. When the charging device of the mobile phone, the notebook or other device is not used, switch off it from the socket that it did not idle.

8. You should not think that the LCD TV is always more economic than kineskopny. It is fair only for models with screen diagonal less than 19 inches inclusive. The return rule works for TVs with big screen size: The LCD TV can consume big power, than kineskopny with the same diagonal. The exception is made by only very economic LCD TVs with LED illumination. Plasma TVs are especially uneconomical.

9. If you use the desktop computer only for work with the text and the Internet, to install in it the powerful processor and the video card there is no sense. In the monitor with diagonal more than 19 inches need also arises infrequently.

10. If you have router, disconnect it from network when all computers in the apartment are switched off and it is all the same not necessary.

11. It is not always rational to prepare dish which can be prepared on gas-fire instead by means of electric devices. For those dishes which cook with use of electric devices it is more convenient, better to use more economic devices. So, the convection oven spends less energy, than electrooven for warming up of the same dish, and the microwave oven - is even less, than convection oven. Avoid, however, use in the microwave oven of function of oven if in it there is that.
