INFOGRAPHICS – ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES

This post is also available in: Română (Romanian)

SIMPLE ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES

Switch the bulbs, save energy!

  • Choose LED bulbs — they use up to 80% less energy and last 10 times longer.
  • Take advantage of natural light and turn off the lights when you leave the room.

Be aware of “invisible” energy consumption

  • Unplug unused devices, disconnect devices in standby mode to reduce energy consumption.
  • Choose appliances with energy efficiency A.

Reduce water and energy consumption!

  • Only run the washing machine when it’s full.
  • Select a laundry wash cycle up to 40°C that is as short as possible.
  • Choose the ECO mode on your washer/dryer.

Reduce water and energy consumption!

  • Install a water-saving showerhead and fix any dripping tap — a single tap can waste up to 20 liters of water per day.
  • Take short showers of 5–6 minute and turn off the water while soaping.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES FOR THE COLD SEASON

Keep the heat in, stop the waste!

  • Check and bleed your radiators at the start of the cold season — trapped air reduces heating efficiency.
  • Don’t cover radiators with furniture or drapes, as they block the heat.
  • Keep the optimal temperature: 20–21°C in the living room and 18–19°C in the bedroom.

Keep the heat in the home!

  • Insulate windows and doors, as they can lose up to 30% of heat.
  • Close doors of unheated rooms to avoid heat loss from daily-used spaces.
  • Insulate exterior walls, roof, and windows. These measures can reduce energy loss by up to 50%.

Use only the energy you need!

  • Install a programmable thermostat which can cut consumption by up to 10%.
  • Use carpets to provide thermal comfort.
  • Ventilate efficiently for 2-3 minutes several times a day to retain heat.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY MEASURES FOR THE WARM SEASON

Protect the home from the sun!

  • Install external shutters, heavy curtains, or reflective films on windows.
  • Create natural shade: plant trees or vines next to sun-exposed walls.

Take advantage of natural cooling!

  • Ventilate early in the morning and in the evening, when it’s cooler outside.
  • Use cross-ventilation — open opposite windows to create a natural airflow and cool your home faster.

Reduce cooling energy consumption!

  • Use fans instead of air conditioning.
  • Set your air conditioner to 24–26°C and avoid large temperature differences from outdoor temperature.
  • Clean air conditioner filters regularly to maintain its efficiency.
