It’s easier than ever to be eco-friendly, which is good news for our bills and the planet. With sustainability tips coming in all shapes and sizes we want to show you some of our favourite small tricks to save energy and resources. Every little gesture can help make the world a greener place, so let’s find out more.
Easy eco
More information, less energy
What’s the forecast? One of Home Connect’s many handy features is something called the eco forecast. This useful little gauge shows you how much water and energy your smart washing machine and dishwasher’s programs will use. It can be found after directly clicking on an appliance, or under the Advanced section under Controls. When choosing a specific program, for example Cotton Eco on the washing machine or Eco 50°C on the dishwasher, the blue bar shows how much water the program will use, while the green shows energy. Just like your weather forecast, having access to better information can help you make better choices. While eco forecast won’t tell you whether to wear shorts or a raincoat, it can help you make smart energy decisions about the resources your household devices use.
Turn devices off, remotely with Home Connect
It’s all too easy to dash out the house and forget to turn your helpful household devices off, needlessly using up energy while you’re out and about. Thankfully your smart home app can help with this. Appliances like washing machine, dryer or washer-dryer can be switched off with the power status on/ power status standby button while you are on the move or sleeping.
Expect more to come
At Home Connect we're constantly working to develop new smart home technology and ways to help the average household save on energy and waste. As we all lead busy lives, the more that devices and smart household technology can help us, the better! Together, even little changes can collectively make a big difference for the planet.
