It is possible to save considerable amounts of money and be kind to the environment at the same time if a careful kitchen design is installed.That is the message of Property Secrets, which has claimed that making changes to the kitchen is a great way to become more eco-friendly in the home.Andy Stern from the website noted that the tide is turning when it comes to green issues in the kitchen.He stated A careful kitchen design can save lots of energy Fridges should be positioned away from heat sources like cookers and dishwashers, as a fridge next to a heat source takes up to 15 per cent more energy to run.A fan-assisted oven heats up 30 times faster than a conventional oven, so consuming less energy. Gas hobs and ovens use half the energy of traditional electric ones Mr Stern has also suggested that many people are actively hunting sustainable properties.
