A normal family of 4 uses around 4500 kWh of electricity per year through everyday activities like cleaning, cooking, and using appliances like fridges, freezers, and dishwashers. It is important to be careful using electricity at home for safety and to save on energy bills and help the environment. People commonly use heating, air conditioning, and batteries in their daily routines. Tips for saving energy at home include leaving fluorescent lights on rather than turning them off and on frequently, running the dishwasher when full rather than washing dishes by hand, preheating stove burners before cooking, using mixer taps correctly, maintaining a constant indoor temperature rather than turning heating on and off, installing double glazing windows to reduce heat

1. The energies
at home

2. 
The quantity and type of energy families consume in each
household and its consequences.
Normal family where are 4 members use 4500 kWh for
a year. We use energy in our normal activities. We use
this electric energy when we do many things at home
example cleaning or cooking. Our Electrical devices
need energy too for example fridge, freezer,dishwasher
and others.

3. We must be careful when we do things at
home
which
need
electric
energy.
It can be very dangerous for us.
Second important thing is that we should
save energy becasue it can be more healthy
for our environmend because if we won’t, we
will pay big bills.

4. Our
daily habits: heating,air conditioning,
batteries… What do you use?
We use heating when we need it or
it’ cold.
We have heaters or heated floors at
homes.
Air conditioning is very usefull in
summer because it’s very hot.
People use it in shops or in their car.

5. Batteries are needed everyday. Because of
them many devices can work and help us to
live easier.
We can use them to our cameras, tv remove
control, torch.
Sometimes we can charging the batteries.

6. TIPS, ADVICES, RECOMENDATIONS…

7. Leaving fluorescent consumes
less power
One tip is widespread that the fluorescent consume more every
time turn on and off, that if we let on.
The power of these is an overconsumption, but only a fraction of a
second, so never let the fact compensated on.
What we do need to stand out from the fluorescent tubes,
is that you turn them on and off made repeatedly may shorten its life.
Either way, it is best to always opt for light bulbs that always
involve energy savings.

8. Spend more the dishwasher to
wash by hand
Despite what you may come to think hand washing consumes
more than using the dishwasher.
And, despite the expense of light this appliance may entail,
provided that such an efficient dishwasher, washing machine
can save up to 40% more water and 10% energy.
Of course, when we set ourselves to put the dishwasher it is
fully loaded or half load program, to avoid wasting energy.

9. The flame of the stove to
warm up before
If you cook with gas, put the flame from the food will not be made
before, because flames protruding from the base of the container,
not only not heated, but it also burn the pot or pan. So when it
comes to cooking, we should look always the flame adjustment to
the base of the container you're using at the time, to avoid wasting
energy.
I did help the food is done before the use of covers both pots, and
in pans.
This advice is also extensible for those who cook with ceramic or
induction.

10. The mixer taps help save
The mixer faucets, those that have a single lever to
adjust the flow rate and temperature, help save regarding
SINGLE HOLE MIXER or individual taps, provided they are
used correctly.
That is, every time you open the tap, if no hot water is
needed, it must be cold position, because if we are not
making the boiler starts, although this did not reach to
produce hot water, generating energy peaks which
represent a waste thereof.

11. Turn off the heating consumes
more than
a constant temperature
In winter, the ideal temperature for a cozy feel ranges from 19 º to 21 º C.
However, during the night the necessary degrees down to 15 ° C, a
temperature that can be obtained, often without turning on the heat.
That's why we maintain a constant temperature can be a waste of more
than 13% energy, much of which would mean the peak of heat needed to
heat the house the next day.

12. The windows represent a loss of
residual heat
The windows represent a loss of residual heat
It is often thought that, by its small size, the heat loss through windows is
not very important, however, this may involve between 25 and 30% of the
heating worn. The best way to avoid these losses is undoubtedly opt for
double glazing. In this way we can reduce by up to 50% energy waste,
along with better insulate against cold and heat.

13. The isolation affects almost no
energy expenditure
The isolation affects almost no energy expenditure
For many, the isolation of the home is something that hardly matters,
however, the act of choosing good insulating materials and troubleshooting
insulation can save up to 40% of energy for heating and a similar
percentage in the case air conditioning.
