  • Saving Electricity - Laundry

    Tumble dryers are massive energy suckers, but if you need to use them, ensure the lint filter is clean and the room where the clothes dryer is has plenty of air circulation. This will allow your clothes to dry faster and save electricity; as will ensuring that they've gone through a fast spin in your washing machine. Of course, line dry wherever possible.

    In regards to washing machines, the biggest energy savings can be made in relation to water temperature. Given today's detergents, hot water doesn't really need to be used for the average load; cold water will work just fine. Also experiment with your machine to see how short a cycle you can use and still achieve effective results.
