SAVING ENERGY
Everybody who properly
uses energy not only saves
money but also consciously
acts in aid of the natural
environment. So let’s save
electric energy by:
●
Using proper cookware
Pots and pans with flat and thick bottom
help to save up to one-third of electric
energy. Remember about the lid as
otherwise the consumption of energy
quadruples!
●
Matching cookware to the size of the
hotplate
A cooking pot should neither be smaller
nor bigger than the used hotplate.
●
Maintaining hotplates and pot bottoms
clean
Dirt obstructs the transfer of heat – heavily
burnt food residuals often can be cleaned
only with chemicals harmful to the envi-
ronment.
●
Avoiding necessary “peeping into
pots”.
●
Not using the plate near refrigerators
/ freezers
As the consumption of energy unneces-
sary rises.
