Bismillahirrahmanirrahim

Assalammualaikum wbt.
Are you moving to your new house? Or did you just buy a new one? If so, then you came to the right place. This is the article written just for you! For those who are moving to a new house. Think about it, is it worth it to move your old, big and non-energy efficient second-hand refrigerator to your new house? Too much time wasted! If you're hiring someone to move it to your new house hurm it will cost as much as buying a new energy-efficient refrigerator so why don't you buy a new one? So here are some tips for you, check it out!

1. Contact your utility company to see if they have a “check meter” which you plug into an appliance and get the exact voltage. This will help you decide whether it is worthwhile to replace an appliance

2. When purchasing for home appliances and electronics, look for the “Energy Star” label. For more information, you can go to www.energystar.gov.
3. If you’re buying a new dryer, find one with a moisture sensor that turns off when the clothes are dry
4. Choose an energy-efficient front-loading washing machine
5. Avoid buying an automatic ice maker because it uses substantial energy which will cost you more

6. Side-by-side refrigerator freezers use more than a typical model
7. When buying a new stove, the induction cook tops are the most energy-efficient. These look like a ceramic cooking surface, like a countertop
8. If available, buy a “green power” that comes from non-polluting sources of electricity such as solar cells and windmills. For more information on green power availability visit www.green-e.org
9. Replace a very old windows with more energy-efficiency ones
10. Choose a natural gas furnace over an oil furnace, which produces more CO2
11. Since dark colours absorb heat, choose a light-colour roof shingle if you have a choice
12. You can apply a reflective coating to your existing roof. Two standard roofing coatings are available at your local home improvement store. They have both waterproofing and reflective properties and are marketed primarily for mobile homes and recreational vehicles. One coating is white latex that you can apply over many common roofing materials, such as asphalt and fiberglass shingles, tar paper, and metal. Most manufactures offer five-year warranty
