Getting a sustainable home doesn’t necessarily mean you have to spend a fortune. Quite the contrary! Achieving this will allow you to reduce your expenses and protect the environment. But also the environment inside your home. The first step, therefore, is to decide which areas will be affected by this arrangement and above all to define our objective: to favour comfort or the environment.
One of the first elements to be calibrated in the home environment relationship is undoubtedly lighting. As we know, there are energy-saving light bulbs which have replaced the more energy-intensive ones. Such as incandescent ones. Fortunately, the new LEDs allow a much less expensive lighting but also more design. There are in fact so-called ”luminous chains” of LEDs which can be simply glued around a piece of furniture. Or they can replace a classic chandelier if placed in strategic corners of the ceiling. They are also inconspicuous, so they will give you a clean and aesthetically pleasing result.
Water is one of the most wasteful resources. This is why, even in the home, you should limit its use. Most drainage systems do not make the environment compatible with the home. Therefore, we recommend choosing sanitary ware with flushing cisterns to reduce the amount used. In addition, in many countries concessions have been applied regarding the replacement of taps. All the more reason to achieve the perfect combination of environment and home. Not forgetting the choice of a shower mixer that allows you to halve your water consumption. Not only in the shower. But also in the rest of the tapware!
Did you know that by adjusting the temperature in your home beforehand, you can save 50% of the costs on your electricity bill? Whether you are heating or cooling the room, it doesn’t matter. Acting in advance by setting time slots will allow you to save a lot of money. Let’s consider the current period. Winter. In order to heat the house, it is not necessary to turn on the heaters to the maximum when you feel the cold. But by setting predefined time slots, the house will maintain a constant temperature. This avoids unnecessary waste of energy and money. The same goes for summer!
