We have separated for you some devices that do a damage in our pockets and it is good to avoid
Appliances are useful, necessary, mandatory presence in Brazilian homes, but they spend so much that they affect the account at the end of the month. With this in mind, the Association of Homewoods and Home owners gathered a list of devices to get extra attention, as they harm the.
Appliances that weigh the most in the electricity bill at the end of the month and how to reduce consumption
1.
Brother close to the fan, is a device that is villain in power consumption and people forget it connected for hours.
Thus, despite the thermal comfort it generates, consumption ranges from 129 kWh to 679 kWh, depending on the type of manufacture, brand and power. The indication is to report consumption and use it outside peak hours.
2.
Too essential in everyday life, but you need to pay close attention to the frequency of use of this item, as it needs to be connected to the 24 -hour outlet.
The monthly expense of such a model can range from 40 kWh to 57 kWh. Thus, to save, the tip is to open once and remove as many things you need for meals. Avoid opening all the time or leaving the door open for a long time.
3. Television
Now we have it, which is present in several Brazilian homes: TV.
What a lot of people forget is that, even turned off, it consumes high amounts of electricity. Thus, the TV is in standby mode waiting to be turned on again and, with this, the power consumption is still activated.
In standby for about 5 hours a day, the device can demand about 30.45 kWh in a month. Therefore, the ideal is to turn off when not in use and report the time on, especially at home with children.
4. Electric shower
This is one of the great villains of the increase in the electricity bill. A power model of 5,500 W and 30 minutes of daily use can consume about 88 kWh of electricity per month.
Therefore, moderate use, short time and preferably hot water only in extreme cases of cold season is recommended.
5. Fan
When the strong heat beats, there’s no way, it’s time to trigger the fan. But on warmer days, the fan even spends about 17.28 kWh a month, if an average of eight hours a day is used.
Thus, it is good to leave out of the outlet when you do not need to use and only use in extreme cases of hot to save energy.
6. Iron ironing
Another villain is the iron of ironing. The reason is that it consumes a lot of energy to heat the resistance to reach high temperatures. Powerful models coupled with prolonged use further increase consumption.
The power of an iron usually ranges from 1000 to 2000 watts (1 to 2 kW). A 1500 watt iron consumes about 1.5 kWh of energy when used for one hour. To avoid larger expenses, always try to get as much clothing as possible at one time.
