xinyi_reiko 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2008 Hm...my fridge has 4 ticks and supposed to be energy saving....still, my bills come up to abt 150 per mth....i think the energy-saving factor helps but dun expect a drastic change from your current bill lar....i think at most save a few dollars or tens of dollars nia...it also depends on whether you keep opening your fridge or not and the temp u set for your fridge.....i think not much diff one lar... Wahh. .you guys bills really high.. i better dont say so much.. becoz scully mine also that high.. somemore i like to use quite alot water plus leave my PC on.. you all turn on all the lights at home?? ya... wat air said is exactly wat the guy from hong liang told me... so i guess i'm more or less firm in getting mitsubishi one instead of F&P... oh... mine not colourful coffee table. coz my hubby and i are both boring ppl. we like plain stuff just now the guy from hong liang told me not to bathe with heater and to use lesser aircon to save bills insted of getting the 4 ticks fridge. coz 4 ticks or 2 ticks the difference is not a lot... eh... not colourful lah.. just that there are many colours to choose from.. you see my house pics.. colours are standard de.. i feel aircon really makes a big diff in the bill.. i only switch on my aircon once so far.. until yesterday my hubby said.. switch on to let the fan to work abit.. but is only for 5 mins..

Mine is only 2 ticks leh.. I do open the fridge for quite some time every now and then when I cook or buy groceries back.. What is the temp you set for your fridge? Mine is -20*C and 3*C separately.. yours i think is because you cook every. cook everyday means more gas.. more water waste on cleaning up.. your aircon also ah.. then if fridge keep open and close many times..sure will need more energy.. to maintain the coldness.. Nopenope.. I don't use govt gas.. I use private.. Don't want the ugly piping.. Our water still consider ok.. It's the electricitiy that is more killing.. I guess aircon is a major killer.. Coz we on aircon on weekend nights when playing mahjong in the living room.. Wahh. .you guys bills really high.. i better dont say so much.. becoz scully mine also that high.. somemore i like to use quite alot water plus leave my PC on.. you all turn on all the lights at home??

You can even have a 5-ticks fridge (not sure if there's such a thing ), still, if your personal consumption is high, the bill won't make a lot of difference also.... Like what my hubby suggested (stupidly), everyday list down the things that we need to take from the fridge, set a time to open the fridge, then faster faster take out the things we need and faster faster close.....i at him..... xinyi, I used to on all the lights at home (cos used to it from staying at my parents' place liao), now we only on whatever lights we need and off it when we step out of that area....my hubby even turn off the TV switch and SCV switch when we go to bed.....cos standby mode consumes electricity too....everything going up, must find ways to lessen our monthly burden....
