Managing your energy usage is top of the agenda currently, so the team at Harry Charles Estate Agents have consulted with our energy saving experts to give you some useful advice on how to limit your usage of energy in the kitchen.
Fridges and Freezers:
Fridges and freezers are one of the most energy consuming appliances in the kitchen consuming up to 12% of the average household energy bill. Make sure your appliance is efficient by defrosting the freezer regularly to keep it running efficiently. 1 cm of ice can reduce the efficiency of your freezer by 10% so don’t let ice build-up.
Ovens:
Ovens are also high energy consumers, switching to slow cook ovens, air dryers and microwaves will significantly reduce your bill. When you do use your oven make sure it is clean, as a dirty oven uses more energy than a clean one.
