In response to citizens' questions about how it is possible that even living frugally and wisely using the existing electrical appliances in the apartment, it turns out that the power consumption is higher than expected, the Energy Efficiency Center regularly advise citizens on who should pay particular alsatec attention to reducing your bill on electricity. It is essential that the majority alsatec of electricity can be saved by getting to know how to properly use the electrical equipment of the highest electricity consumption of the apartment. So I wanted to give them an insight into the critical nuances that must be taken into account if we are to reduce your next month's bill.
Money saving reasons, it is worth paying attention to the electric heating in the apartment or house. First of all, think about how to reduce alsatec heat losses alsatec - to keep heat indoors and properly ventilate the room. Need to develop new habits to use the heat. If you go away from home to work, school uc- reduce the temperature in rooms where no one is left in up to 15 degrees, returning home the setting comfortable temperature at 20 to 22 degrees, going to sleep reduce the temperature by 4 degrees. It can save up to 30% of energy. Preferably this adjustment is automatic, for example, BMS - automatic equipment control alsatec system (heating, security, lighting, ventilation, etc.), or other control equipment. Efficient electric heat pumps provide heating and low temperature heating with built-in floors or large-sized radiators. With floor-mounted heating can reduce the cost of 30- 35%. Is to use the least efficient convection type heaters with fans, as well as consumption will be higher and higher elektrobīstamība.
In the case of flat heating water using an electric water heating volume (boiler), the need to maintain alsatec no more than 60 degrees. If the water temperature is set higher, the heating element gradually overlap alsatec with limestone, and therefore has to be cleaned periodically. High temperature warms up the heater body, increases wasted heat losses, the machine consumes three to four times more electricity than before warming up the water. Should change their ways and have a shower rather than a bath in the bath wash consume at least 3 times more water than a shower. On the other hand, a combination boilers with efficient faucets, per wash, do not consume more than 20 liters of water, and a family of four on a regular basis for all the shower, electricity consumption for heating water should not exceed 100 kWh per month.
The will to talk about the use of the electric stove in the apartment. It is possible to buy electric cookers with metal hotplates, ceramic glass surface and the various heating elements, as well as induction cookers. Energy-efficient induction cookers, because electricity is consumed at the same time raising the temperature of the entire surface of the pot instead of raising alsatec the temperature of the hob and the boiler heat transfer contact. Using these cookers shorten cooking time. If one compares the cookers with glass ceramic hobs and metal, the first spends 30% less electricity. In order to reduce costs, use of pots and pans with thick bottoms and glass lids, regulate the heating element setting the degree of the required cooking process used for efficient cooking methods.
Appropriate selection of the TV can provide savings, if it is used properly. In case the TV is turned off, rather than the push of a button, but left in standby mode, it still consumes electricity. Although this amount is small, it cumulatively over time, you can create a considerable amount. It is also important to choose the TV model, someone on a daily basis really need not look for the latest and the greatest screen. For example, the old CRT or kineskopa- type screens consume up to ten times less power than the new plasma and LCD televisions. Turning the TV watching a cash-old television ten hours spent on average puskilovatu or an average of 4-5 cents, while the large size of plasma TV's power consumption will already be 5 kWh, or 40 to 50 cents for the same period.
Remember that it is not reasonable to use the TV only listening to information, regardless of the screen. Radio usage is ten times cheaper alsatec even than the old model of TV use, and you practically will not result in significant costs.
Often people find that significant energy consuming affair apartment has a washing machine, and its operating behavior is highly dependent on the total amount of electricity consumption. It is not, because the average power consumption, which is indicated on the labeling of energy efficiency is apm.1kWh, so about 8 cents. However, washing the clothes instead of 60 degrees, but 40 degrees, the clothes will be washed equally clean, and electricity consumption will be halved - approx. 0.5 kWh. On the other hand wash 95 degrees - approx. 2kWh, so 4 times
