Savings on utilities are a real opportunity, and it is important to follow certain rules and use energy efficient methods. In winter, a lot of electricity is spent on heating, but with optimization of consumption can significantly reduce accounts. Energy efficiency expert Vladimir Kuzemko shares tips on how to save on communal costs.
The first and important step is to introduce a culture of economy in the family. Try not only for your own savings, but also an example for others. According to Kuzemko, from the introduction of such simple organizational methods, real economic benefits for the family and the country as a whole can be obtained.
Energy -saving habits that can be introduced at home are:

- Always turn off the TV before bedtime.
