When the amount of light and water begins to scare, it's time to save.
Explain relatives living with you in the same square of the significance and purpose of savings. If you will keep, then your efforts will not be in vain.
How to save on electricity?
The first thing is learn to turn off the lights when you don't need. No need to turn on the TV for background. Turn off the computer when not working for him. No need to leave it on, because open the Skype page on Sots. networks, etc. Better once read a book, hang out with kids, do something useful in the house.
Incandescent bulbs throw, put energy saving.
Notice how much electricity spends microwave, multivarka, electric kettle, coffee maker, toaster and other appliances. Consider whether you can do without something. If Yes then remove, sell, give to friends family.
Notice how many times a week do you wash. Maybe it happens every day, and washing machine will polasky pair of socks. Is it possible to reduce the number of washings? Appliance manufacturers are increasingly began to produce a washing machine that not only save your time on washing and electricity with water. This innovation concerns as washing machines with a vertical load and horizontal.
Perhaps you too neat and people vacuum every day. This, incidentally, is meaningless. The vacuum cleaner picks up dust into the air. I.e. every day you breathe dust. And you don't want.
If your apartment is cold, it is necessary to solve problems with the heating system, to change the batteries, for example. Is to seal the cracks under the Windows, put a plastic box, to insulate the walls of a corner of the apartment. And the use of heaters will no longer be needed.
Buy only energy efficient appliances.
Assess every day consumption of electricity by the meter. With time you will understand what is waste and what you can save.
Water saving
To save on the water a little harder.
The first and most important - put the counters.
The high consumption of hot water when taking a shower. Limit myself to a few minutes instead of a half-hour session.
Don't have the habit of cooking with an open faucet. If the water is not needed, turn it off when brushing your teeth, when lathered his head. All dirty dishes can wait until the end of cooking. If you'll wash it all at once, you use much less water.
You can wash the dishes in the basin and rinse under running water.
Rare cases when people complain about the high consumption of cold water. But still happen.
Cold water should also put the counter.
Check all faucets, pipes for leaks. And don't forget about the toilet. Current porcelain one can spend a lot of water.
Under special control are such appliances as washing machine, dishwasher. Track how many times a day, a week they run, and reduce as much as possible.
All costs that are going to ensure that savings will pay off over time. And the counters will not be intimidating.
And remember the most important thing not to skimp on your health. You should not wash the dishes, wash in cold water, take a shower once a week.
Health is no longer good for what money can't buy.
