We are all concerned about responsible energy consumption, every day we can make a big energy difference at home. Responsible consumption certainly helps to protect the environment, while saving us a lot of money!
1. LIGHTING > During the day be sure to use the natural light of the day instead of turning on the lights and replace your incandescents bulbs for energy-saving ones. In addition, the use of fluorescent tubes where you need light for many hours, like in the kitchen, is more efficient.Remember what our parents said to us when we were children: Turn off the light when you leave! Or you just can place a sensor.

2. WATER > Always remember not to leave taps running unnecessarily when shaving or brushing your teeth and try to take showers instead of a bath. It also helps to change your shower head and taps with flow restrictors .

3. APPLIANCES> Nowadays most of the appliances are equipped with an economic program that helps you to save energy giving us the same results. When using the oven avoid to open it because it loses heat and it will force it to consume more.

4. FRIDGE > This appliance deserves a special section for its relevance. Did you know the fridge is the one that most consumes energy? Do not place in direct sunlight and be sure to keep the freezer full for lower energy use.
