1 TURN THE THERMOSTAT DOWN BY 1 ° C & CUT HEATING BILLS BY UP TO 10% No Cost Energy saving measures

2 TURN OFF THE LIGHTS WHEN LEAVING A ROOM. No Cost Energy saving measures

3 DON'T LEAVE APPLIANCES ON STANDBY OR ON CHARGE UNNECESSARILY. No Cost Energy saving measures

4 SWITCH OFF COMPUTERS & MONITORS WHEN NOT IN USE. No Cost Energy saving measures

5 DON'T OVERFILL PANS OR KETTLES - IT WASTES ENERGY HEATING EXTRA WATER No Cost Energy saving measures

6 USE A SMALL RING OR LOW FLAME FOR SMALL PANS. KEEP LIDS ON PANS No Cost Energy saving measures

7 USE A PRESSURE COOKER, STEAMER OR SLOW COOKER INSTEAD OF AN ORDINARY PAN - THEY ARE MORE EFFICIENT No Cost Energy saving measures

8 SET THE OVEN TO THE TEMPERATURE YOU NEED & NO HIGHER No Cost Energy saving measures

9 ONCE A PAN IS BOILING TURN THE RING ON LOW TO SIMMER No Cost Energy saving measures

10 CLOSE CURTAINS AT DUSK TO STOP HEAT ESCAPING No Cost Energy saving measures

11 RECYCLE ANYTHING YOU ARE ABLE TO I.E. NEWSPAPERS, BOTTLES & CANS No Cost Energy saving measures

12 PUT ALUMINIUM FOIL BEHIND ANY RADIATORS FITTED TO OUTSIDE WALLS (WITH SHINY SIDE FACING RADIATOR). ORDINARY KITCHEN FOIL WILL DO, OR YOU CAN BUY SPECIALLY DESIGNED PANELS FROM DIY STORES. No Cost Energy saving measures

13 FIX LEAKING TAPS & MAKE SURE THEY'RE FULLY TURNED OFF - A DRIPPING TAP WASTES ENERGY. IN 1 WEEK IT CAN WASTE ENOUGH HOT WATER TO FILL ½ A BATH No Cost Energy saving measures

14 HAVE A SHOWER INSTEAD OF A BATH - IT SAVES WATER & ENERGY No Cost Energy saving measures

15 USE DISHWASHERS & WASHING MACHINES WITH FULL LOADS. IF YOU CAN'T, USE A ½ LOAD OR ECONOMY PROGRAMME. No Cost Energy saving measures

16 DON'T PUT WARM OR HOT ITEMS IN A FRIDGE/FREEZER No Cost Energy saving measures

17 IF YOUR FREEZER FROSTS UP QUICKLY, CHECK THE DOOR SEALS No Cost Energy saving measures

18 MAKE SURE THERE IS PLENTY OF VENTILATION SPACE AT THE BACK & TOP OF YOUR FRIDGE/ FREEZER No Cost Energy saving measures

19 KEEP THE COOLING FINS AT THE BACK OF YOUR FRIDGE/FREEZER CLEAN No Cost Energy saving measures

20 SITE YOUR FRIDGE/FREEZER IN A COOL PLACE: OUT OF DIRECT SUN, AWAY FROM THE COOKER & BOILER No Cost Energy saving measures

21 CHECK THE INSIDE FRIDGE TEMPERATURE: FRIDGES SHOULD BE 0 ° C TO 4 ° C No Cost Energy saving measures

22 DEFROST FREEZERS REGULARLY - THE MORE ICE, THE MORE ELECTRICITY USED No Cost Energy saving measures

23 ALLOW PLENTY OF TIME FOR FROZEN FOOD TO DEFROST WITHOUT USING A MICROWAVE No Cost Energy saving measures

24 TRY TO KEEP YOUR FRIDGE/FREEZER ABOUT ¾ FULL - THIS IS MOST EFFICIENT No Cost Energy saving measures

25 SWITCH LIGHTS OFF WHEN THEY AREN'T NEEDED No Cost Energy saving measures

26 USE THE LOWEST WATTAGE BULB THAT GIVES THE LIGHT YOU NEED No Cost Energy saving measures

27 MAKE USE OF DAYLIGHT - KEEP WINDOWS CLEAN & KEEP FURNITURE AWAY FROM WINDOWS No Cost Energy saving measures

28 FIT LOW-ENERGY LIGHT BULBS No Cost Energy saving measures

29 A FLUORESCENT STRIP LIGHT IS CHEAPER TO RUN THAN ORDINARY BULBS GIVING THE SAME LIGHT No Cost Energy saving measures

30 FILL THE WASHING MACHINE FULL - MAKE THE MOST OF THE ENERGY USED FOR A WASH No Cost Energy saving measures

31 LF YOU NEED TO WASH A HALF LOAD USE THE 'HALF LOAD' SETTING No Cost Energy saving measures

32 USE LOW TEMPERATURE WASHES - MOST POWDERS ARE DESIGNED TO WORK BEST AT 40 ° C TO 55 ° C No Cost Energy saving measures

33 DRY WASHING OUTSIDE WHEN YOU CAN No Cost Energy saving measures

34 IF YOUR TUMBLE DRIER HAS THEM, SELECT CYCLES THAT SWITCH OFF AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THE LOAD IS DRY. IF NOT, SET SHORT DRYING TIMES AND RESET IF NECESSARY. No Cost Energy saving measures

35 A TUMBLE DRIER WITH A DRYNESS SENSOR WORKS BEST WITH SAME-FABRIC LOADS No Cost Energy saving measures

36 USE THE SPIN FUNCTION OR A SPIN DRIER TO HELP DRY WASHING BEFORE USING A TUMBLE DRIER No Cost Energy saving measures
