Saving energy elsewhere in the home

Use your diswasher more efficiently:

• wait until the dishwasher has a full load
• rinse dirty plates in a sink of cold water
• use a good quality detergent and rinse aid
• use energy saving cycles.

Install energy-efficient saving accessories and appliances to help reduce your consumption:

• plug-in timers and time switches allow you to turn appliances such as heaters, fans, lights and air conditioners, on and off
• remember to turn off the TV when no one is watching it
• if you have a pool consider a two-speed swimming pool pump to reduce energy consumption and a pool blanket to reduce heat loss. Only use the pool filter in winter to keep the water clean.
