Saving Energy at Home

Kitchen

Tips for saving energy in your kitchen

• Put the lid on your pans when cooking. This keeps more heat in and uses less energy.

• Avoid overfilling the kettle. Only boil the amount you need to use.

• Fill the dishwasher. Get the most out of the wash cycle.

• Wash your clothes on shorter and/or cooler cycles (30° or lower), making sure to put a full load on.

• Fill your fridge as much as possible. The fuller it is, the less energy it takes to keep cool.

• Keep your appliances clean (e.g. kettle, air fryer, oven). This helps them run more efficiently.

• If you can, upgrade your appliences to newer models, they're often more energy-efficient (e.g. dishwasher).

Bathroom

Tips for saving energy in your bathroom

• Don't leave your tap running if you don't need to (e.g. while you're brushing your teeth).

• Take shorter showers. Using less water saves energy.

• Swap baths for showers where possible. Showers use a lot less water.

• Fix drips. Even small leaks can make a difference.

• Change your shower head. Water-efficient shower heads manage water flow so less water is wasted.

Living Room

Tips for saving energy in your living room

• Remember to switch lights off. Leaving lights on unnecessarily adds up.

• Switch to more energy-efficient light bulbs. You can find out more on the Energy Saving Trust's website.

• Let heat circulate. Move furniture away from radiators, and move curtains out of the way of radiators.

• Close curtains at night. This prevents heat from escaping.

• Bleed your radiators regularly. This helps to keep them running efficiently.

• Don't leave devices on standby. E.g. TV, speakers, game consoles. These are known as vampire devices.
