Kitchen Energy Savers
* Move your refrigerator away from the stove, dishwasher, or heat vents. Make sure the door seals are airtight.
* Wait until your dishwasher is full before you run it but don’t overload it.
* Use pots that fit the size of the burners on your stove. Use lids so you can cook at a lower temperature.
* Match the water level and temperature settings on your washer to the size of your load. Don’t fill the machine for just a few items.
* Clean your dryer lint filter before you put in a new load.
* Make sure your water heater is set to 120 degrees. Some thermostats are preset to 140 degrees, which can cost you more money.
