When our warm, comfortable shower suddenly becomes an icy form of torture, the water heater takes center stage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Until then, it quietly sucks up nearly 17% of a home&#8217;s available energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3Refrigerator\"><\/span>3.Refrigerator<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator.jpg\" alt=\"What Uses The Most Electricity At Home?\" class=\"wp-image-365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator.jpg 500w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator-219x146.jpg 219w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator-50x33.jpg 50w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/Refrigerator-112x75.jpg 112w\" sizes=\"(max-width:767px) 480px, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right behind the water heater, in the race for electricity usage, comes the refrigerator at 13.7%. Considering the fact that, up until now, the appliances we&#8217;ve mentioned serve a whole house, this is amazing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Heaters, air conditioners, and water heaters have to put out a lot of energy. Their jobs are relatively unrestricted. A refrigerator, on the other hand, is enclosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why do refrigerators use so much electricity? One main reason is that if warm air or moisture gets inside your fridge, the compressor works even harder. That means it will draw more energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those three are the biggies. Of course, there are also electricity drainers such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Lights<\/li><li>Stove<\/li><li>Dishwasher<\/li><li>Electronics<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But why just<em>&nbsp;list<\/em>&nbsp;electricity gobblers? We want to also list ways to&nbsp;<em>help<\/em>. Otherwise, it would be like going for a walk with a friend. We tell the friend their shoelace is untied, then continue to walk. The friend needs a chance to tie their shoes so they can keep walking, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With that in mind, here are some ways to help your appliances go on an electricity diet. Make them cut down on their energy gobbling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"To_Increase_Efficiency_And_Cut_Down_On_Electricity_Use_%E2%80%93\"><\/span><strong>To Increase Efficiency And Cut Down On Electricity Use &#8211; <\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1The_HeaterAir_Conditioner\"><\/span>1.The Heater\/Air Conditioner<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"353\" src=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner.jpg 500w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner-300x212.jpg 300w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner-207x146.jpg 207w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner-50x35.jpg 50w, https:\/\/glutenfreepleasure.com\/__proxy_domain\/www.handymansingapore.com.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/The-HeaterAir-Conditioner-106x75.jpg 106w\" sizes=\"(max-width:767px) 480px, 500px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Install a <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Programmable_thermostat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programmable thermostat<\/a>&#8212;Then you can pre-set a schedule when the temperature needs to be higher or lower.<br><\/li><li>Block air leaks&#8212;These can happen around doors and under sinks.
