During the last 10 years all around the world, people and institution started to talk about energy efficiency.
It was a big issue, something which could have helped us to live in a better world, thanks to the opportunity to reduce the amount of CO2 emissions.
But at the same time this issue represented something not very connected with our daily life. Every single person was powerless in the face of this problem. Just big industries could do something about that.
Now everything is changed. Every single person has the chance and the power to play its part to reduce the amount of pollution, getting at same time chance to save a lot of money.
In this article I would like to talk about two factors which helped me to save the world from disaster and reduce consistently the bills I used to pay. This is just the first article I write about that, and my purpose is to write some more in the future.

Let’s start with factors which help us to manage the temperature of water and of house in general.
Does It sounds good? Let’s go ahead.
First
Thermostatic radiator valves represent a crucial factor to improve energy efficiency of our house. Using this instrument should be very easy to control the temperature of your home, choosing which part of it should be cooler and which should be hotter. You just need to fit the Thermostatic radiator valves on radiators throughout the house.
Be sure, if you don’t have it, you are not managing efficiently heat of your house and wasting a lot of money in term of bills.
Second
How to balance temperature of radiator? Lockshield is a valve on radiator covered with a plastic cup. It helps us to balance the temperature of radiator.

If the radiator is too hot it needs more cold water flowing through it. If it is too cold it need, of course, more hot water.
Lockshield help us to manage this issue, avoiding any mistakes.
Some Data
According to “Energysavingtrust” research, installing and correctly using a room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves could save £80 – £165 and 330kg – 680kg carbon dioxide a year.
