How to use home automation system to save energy in the bedroom

Every home has a bedroom and the majority of homes have more than one.

We have discussed how to save energy in the lounge and utility room with our

appliances, but stage three is all about saving energy in the room where we

rest our weary heads at night.

You may think that there is not much going on in terms of energy usage in the

bedroom, a couple of sockets and a single light perhaps. We live in the

twenty-first century now, who doesn’t have a television and maybe a set-top

box installed? We do not need to carry out inspections in every bedroom

throughout the land to realise that the “second” television for the house is in

the bedroom. The emergency or back-up television for when the husband has

football on in the front room. Astandby killer will disconnect the electrical

supply to your TV and entertainment systems when you switch them off using

the remote control.

Try not to leave your lights and bedside lamps on when the room is not

occupied, and don’t leave your mobile phone charging overnight. If you do

find that charging your phone during the night is convenient for you, there are

gadgets out there that disconnect the mains supply to your phone once it is

fully charged. Remote control sockets will allow you to easily switch off your

lamps and electrical gadgets.

What light bulbs do you have in your light fitting and bedside lamps? Swapping them for the LED alternatives will save you a small fortune

on your lighting bills.Website:home automation
