Energy Saving Tips for Your Hot Water System
- Reduce Shower Time
- Adjust the Temperature
- Add Insulation to Hot Water Pipes
- Switch to Energy-Efficient Appliances
A single bath can consume loads of water, if the goal is to reduce the amount of hot water your household uses, it is better to stick to shorter showers than to take baths.
You can save a lot on energy if you keep the temperature of your hot water system lower.
By insulating your hot water pipes, you'll significantly reduce the waiting time when you turn on the hot water tap, as the water stays warmer for long.
Consider upgrading to a newer, more energy-efficient model if your hot water system is outdated.
