water heater, and HVAC system use the most energy, but how you use them determines the final cost. Small habits can lead to big savings:
The Fridge: Every time you leave the door open while deciding what to snack on, your fridge has to work overtime to cool back down. Also, ensure the seals are tight and the coils at the back stay dust-free.
The Laundry: Whenever possible, run full loads and use cold water. Your water heater uses a massive amount of energy just to reach those high temperatures.
Temperature Control: Small adjustments to your thermostat—even just a couple of degrees—can significantly lower your consumption without making you uncomfortable.
