Step 1: Insulate your windows<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t

It’s no secret that windows are one of the biggest sources of wasted energy. Poorly insulated, they dissipate all the heat. Double and triple glazing can save you up to 10% on your bill. But think about walls and roofs too.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Step 2: Warm up moderately<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Did you know that if you lowered your thermostat by 1\u00b0C you could save up to 7% on your energy bill? The best thing to do in winter is to wear warm clothes and heat your home reasonably. A temperature of 19\u00b0C during the day is more than enough.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Step 3: Turn down your heating at night<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t

A healthy habit is to turn down your heating at night. If you’re sheltered under warm blankets or a duvet, you’ll sleep much better.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 4: Use low-voltage bulbs<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

They are much more economical, consuming up to 5 times less energy than incandescent bulbs. And the light they give off is much more pleasant than that of the earlier models, which was often considered too cold.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Step 5: Avoid prolonged standby times<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

If you’re not using them, switch off your electrical appliances. The accumulation of appliances on standby in the home is a significant source of electricity consumption.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 6: Make the most of natural light<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Use as much natural light as possible by placing work surfaces, reading chairs or your desk as close as possible to the windows.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 7: Choose a pyrolysis oven<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

To withstand the heat, a pyrolysis oven is always better insulated than a conventional oven. This insulation allows it to retain heat better during cooking. It’s best to start pyrolysis just after cooking to take advantage of the heat that has accumulated.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 8: Cover your saucepans during cooking<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Put a lid on your pots and pans to limit heat loss. Don’t leave your hobs on. When cooking, switch off your hobs a few minutes before the end of the cooking time to take advantage of the accumulated heat. Hotplates consume a lot of energy.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 9: Defrost in the open air<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Just think about it. Bringing your frozen food up to room temperature by leaving it out in the open is much cheaper than using the microwave.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 10: Watch out for the machines<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Don’t run your washing machines half empty, or use an energy-saving programme. When it comes to drying, a line or tumble dryer is preferable to an electric tumble dryer. Laundry dries very quickly near a radiator.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t

Step 11: Read the energy labels<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

When you buy your household appliances, it’s essential to check the energy labels. They are compulsory on all domestic appliances and give you reliable information on their consumption and performance.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
