Warm water:
- The supply of warm water in bath and kitchen constitutes the second highest value in the energy consumption in a household; savings are possible with simple rules that do not limit comfort.
- Take a shower, the hot water of a full bath is enough for three showers.
- Use water saving showering heads, which reduces the warm
water and the energy consumption by 50 percent.
- Do not run warm water unnecessarily.
- If you have a heating boiler, shut off the hot water generation while taking leave.
- Start the dishwasher only when it is completely filled, always use the economy program, which runs at 55°C which heats the water less and saves electricity.
- Pay attention to the dishwasher's energy label. Devices with the efficiency class A, A+ or A++ use less water and electricity.
