Many common household habits can unintentionally double your power bill. For example, devices left plugged in, even when not in use, continue to consume electricity, including computer chargers and bathroom fans.Bathroom fans, which are often found in newer homes without windows, are essential for ventilation to prevent steam buildup after showers. However leaving the fan on for too,
long can significantly increase energy costs. It’s recommended to run the fan for no more than 30 minutes to avoid high energy consumption.Proper ventilation helps reduce moisture, preventing mold, which can negatively impact health. Ideally, the fan should be placed above the shower, toilet, or sink, where moisture is most concentrated.
