As we said at the beginning, it is mandatory to label them, but the decision to produce or choose a more or less “efficient” appliance depends on the manufacturer and the consumer: both producing and buying efficient appliances is more expensive, but it represents savings in the long run. in consumption costs. The appliances required to carry these labels are: Refrigerators and Freezers. Washing machines and drying machines. Dishwasher. Electric furnaces. All these labels have an expiration date of 10 years. What are the appliances that consume the most energy? According to data from the Spanish Electrical Network (REE), 66% of a home's electrical consumption is accounted for by the use of this type of appliance, so buying class A appliances can become a good option to save on electricity.
Our electricity bill in the future, or at least opt for category A (remember that this class of efficiency is more expensive initially) for the appliances that will consume the most. The appliances that consume the most energy are, from highest to lowest, according to data from the aforementioned REE: Fridge . Because it is the only appliance BYB Directory that is continuously on. According to the REE, it only consumes 14% of the total annual energy (an expense of about 30 euros per year). It is, therefore, the device with which we should skimp the least when investing in energy efficiency. Television . If we do not have new-age televisions, it is advisable to leave it turned off completely when not in use, not on standby. Washing machine.
The greatest energy consumption that a washing machine makes is when it activates the heating of the water, so programming cold washes will help us save. Dryer . Drying, if possible, would save us this expense, but if we have or want to use a dryer, it is advisable to spin the clothes first in the wash to save drying costs. Oven . According to the REE, the oven is responsible for 7% of the total annual energy consumption. Some tips to reduce your consumption costs are not to open the oven door while it is working, and to turn off the oven a few minutes before the end of cooking, taking advantage of the inherent heat that has been produced. Dishwasher . Like the washing machine, its greatest energy effort is produced by having to heat the water for certain washing programs. Avoiding these hot programs as much as possible will also help us save energy. Small appliances . Exempt from carrying a label, but they account for 27% of total annual consumption: vacuum cleaners, coffee makers, irons, etc.
