Although there are still a few days left until summer begins in the Mexican national territory, the high temperatures have already been felt for months, especially due to the heat waves that have been recorded.
Under this understanding, although it is quite comfortable to turn on the air conditioning to mitigate high temperatures, An oversight in this appliance can significantly increase the money we pay on the electricity bill from the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE)..

In this way, in order not to use more electricity, the Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) urged users to set the air conditioning to 25 degrees, since each degree less means an electricity consumption of between 4% and 5%.
Light saving tips
But taking care of the temperature in the air conditioning is not the only tip to save electricity that we can apply, according to the CFE, but also the following:
*Use energy-saving bulbs, they illuminate the same as incandescent bulbs and consume 75% less energy.
*Take advantage of natural daylight by properly orienting windows, and use light colors on walls, ceilings, floors and furniture.
*Turn off light bulbs and disconnect devices. Some of them, even when turned off, consume energy. If no one watches TV or listens to the radio, turn them off!
*Make sure your refrigerator has the energy efficiency label (with the FIDE seal – Trust for Electrical Energy Savings) and its packaging correctly insulates the temperature.
*Place the refrigerator in ventilated places and away from heat sources such as the stove because it will consume more energy.
*Save electrical energy by ironing the largest amount of clothing, first the thick ones and before finishing, disconnect the iron and take advantage of its heat with thin fabric garments.
*If you use the washing machine, put the amount indicated for each load, this way you will save energy.
Do not connect several devices to the same socket. It could overload the electrical installation and cause an accident.
*Check that your electrical installation does not have leaks: check by turning off the lights and disconnecting all devices, then verify that the meter does not rotate. If it does, you should check the installation.
*To optimize the use of the air conditioning, check that doors and windows close properly, and clean the filters once a week.
