Some of the high-efficiency appliances have adaptive mechanisms of adjustments and controls according to the use that can help reduce power consumption
Tips:
1. Prefer lamps that save more energy, such as LED - in a standard incandescent bulb, less than 10% of the energy that passes through it is transformed into light. The other 90% of electricity is lost as heat, so the lamps of this kind become hot when staying access for long. While an incandescent light bulb uses 60W right to produce a certain amount of lumen, an LED assembly needs only 20W;
2. The apparatus of high efficiency air conditioning can generate savings of up to 50% as it reached the desired temperature more quickly. Furthermore, when using, keep clean filters and closed doors and windows to prevent the entry of air from the external environment, this complicates the thermal gas exchange with the air, increasing the internal pressure in the system and consequently reduce the efficiency the apparatus;
3. Choose a high efficiency and capacity washing machine to meet the family's needs. Wait accumulate clothes to use the washing machine less often. Machines for washing clothes are also an economical alternative to manual cleaning service because more pieces at once, with less water and less time;
4. Make the most of the daylight leaving curtains and doors. In case of work tables and reading, place them next to the window. This simple change in rooms can generate a lot of energy savings at the end of the month;
5. Prefer refrigerators and freezers energy efficient, therefore more economical. Install the unit in a well ventilated area and away from stoves, heaters or places where the sun beats, to avoid unnecessary power consumption. Do not open the door unnecessarily or for prolonged periods. Avoid storing liquids in containers no cover or line the refrigerator shelves with glass or plastic, as this hinders the internal circulation of cold air;
6. If possible, avoid using electrical appliances during peak hours, higher energy consumption (from 18h to 21h);
7. Turn off the equipment standby function when not using. Remove the plug appliances and turn off the lights when the rooms are not being used;
8. Avoid using benjamins. The accumulation of connections in the same outlet can cause your heating and increase the electrical losses;
