“While industries are big
users and must make the largest
savings, individuals can do a
great deal to cut down on the use
of electricity in their homes,”
Mr. Farrell said.
He suggested the following
tips for residential users of elec
tricity:
Cut down on the use of hot
water. Hot water heaters use
almost four times more energy
than any other appliance in the
home. Showers use less hot
water than tub baths. Those who
prefer baths should use less
water.
Turn off the television set
when it is not being watched. But
not for just a few minutes as it
requires a power surge to come
back on. If buying a new set, look
for the solid state type. It uses
less power than older tube types.
Use small appliances for cook
ing when you can. Such
appliances as electric fry pans
and grills use less electricity.
