Modern kitchens: appliances to save energy

Think about what you really need and space available are 2 prerequisites when it comes to decorating our home.And not just talking about furniture and decorative accessories, but also the appliances , which now serve the function of making our life easier , while harmony in every room.

As absurd as buying a 2-door refrigerator for one person, is acquiring a double stove for an entire family.Clearly these are extreme cases, but we must not overlook the fact that when choosing the best appliance have tothink about what our real needs in terms of size, capacity, safety, design and energy saving .

This last point is extremely important today, because every day we see how the environment is deteriorating, so it is imperative to think about saving energy to help our planet.

Electrical easy to use and with few buttons

I’;ve found that a good appliance is not one that includes many functions, what is certain is that it will be more expensive. I have a microwave oven with grill , which has never been used, firstly because this function already has my conventional oven and secondly, because I (like most) only use the microwave for heating or defrosting.

So, my advice is to choose any appliance (washing machine, oven, refrigerator, etc..) only the necessary programs , and that these are simple to use and understandable symbols to use for what is necessary and not have it on by the pure .

Energy saving

In this case we recover your investment. Make sure the appliances you purchase are at least of class A, and offset values ​​if you invest more and acquire one Class A + or A + +, which reduces power consumption by up to 40%. Your economy and the earth will thank you.

LED Lighting

To continue saving , lighting appliances you need, such as refrigerators, hoods, ovens, etc., you better incorporate LED technology . In my home I have a kitchen open to the dining room is convenient (and decorative) keep the light on in the hood , even when we are not in the kitchen, so that the use of LED helps me save on consumption energy .

Dishwashers and washing machines with short programs

A single person, a couple or a small family, it needs according to their size, this translates rarely “full” the washing machine or dishwasher. It is therefore imperative to have short programs, they spend less time and therefore lower energy and water consumption.

All these tips are useful for me, I served daily, so you can put them into practice you too. I found this video in which they explain why it is better to buy a simple kitchen to one with thousands of features. And you, do you have any other tip to protect the environment from the kitchen of your house ? Share it with our community!
