Looking for simple ways to cut your energy and water bills? Try these easy water heating energy savers:
At the water heater:- Insulate all exposed hot water pipes.
In the bathroom: - Install aerators on the sink faucet.
In the kitchen: - If you have an automatic dishwasher, wash only full loads, let dishes air-dry, and use the "energy-saver" cycle as often as possible.
- Use cold water to run the garbage disposal - it helps solidify grease.
- Install an aerator on your kitchen faucet.
- If you have a leaky hot water faucet, fix it - one drop per second can add up to 165 gallons a month. That's more than one person uses in two weeks!
In the laundry room: - Wash only full loads of clothes; if you need to wash a small load, adjust the water level accordingly.
- Always use cold water during the rinse cycle, and use hot water only for very dirty loads.
- Measure out the detergent to avoid having to wash or rinse the load again.
