Families continue to look for ways to reduce household expenses. Fixed monthly payments include energy bills. There are small habits that can be changed on a daily basis to make the bills a little less expensive at the end of the month.
How to choose a “shoe” or extension cord to plug in appliances and avoid fires
We are usually aware of the use of an appliance or the lights in our home. But there is a type of consumption called “vampire consumption” that is characterized by being silent and that continues to increase energy expenditure. Recognizing which appliances are working, even when they are not being used, will be a key to saving.
The device that consumes energy even when turned off
Some devices such as desktop computers or notebooks consume energy silently. The difference between these PCs and the most energy-consuming household appliance of all is that the former usually enter hibernation or sleep mode. If they remain on but are not being used, they enter sleep mode and continue consuming energy.
The household appliance that has a quiet consumption and that can require a greater amount of electricity is the television. Although it consumes little, the accumulated amount can represent between 10 and 20% of the monthly electricity bill.
The television is one of the devices that is present in almost every home. In addition, many families have more than one of them. Smart TVs, which have become popular in recent years, are always at the ready, ready to be used, so they require constant electricity.
According to Infobae, different studies estimate that televisions can consume between 2.25 and 5% of the energy they use when on. Although this is a low percentage, multiplying this amount by the hours in which the device is in standby mode makes the number significant.
