New Year, New You! A lot of people see the beginning of a new year as a chance to start anew, to leave out old habits, and to build new ones that will help us achieve our goals in life. For this reason, people make a list of resolutions so that they can easily focus and remember the improvements they want to have, such as eating healthy, getting in shape, having higher grades, performing better in work, and many more. In addition to the usual resolutions for ourselves, you can make resolutions for your house as well to make sure that they are in their best shape.
In this article, AllHome will be sharing with you New Year’s resolutions for your home that you can adapt to make sure that your house is as wonderful as ever. Following these resolutions will positively affect your mood because you’ll be coming home to a well-maintained house.
As the New Year starts, the end of holiday festivities draws near. People may feel like they have gained weight from eating a lot of delicious foods over the several celebrations, thus will put in their resolutions to lose weight. Similarly, most of us surely obtained new things for our house adding to our list of belongings and leaving us with less space. If that’s the case for you, your house can cut off some weight too.
By losing some items, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should give away your stuff. You can first try to keep some things away using storage box organizers like this MEGABOX storage box that comes in a size as big as 120 liters to as small as 6.5 liters. With these, you can decrease the visible clutter without having to lose your hard-earned items.
If you decide that some things really just have to go, then dispose of them properly using garbage bags or boxes. However, try to separate them from your garbage so that the people who can still find joy in it this new year can still use it.
New Year, same problem. We all know that global warming has always been an issue. If you still remember during our school days, our teachers taught us how to help our planet in combating global warming through conserving energy, water, and other things. If you ask us here at AllHome, we say those are great habits to keep.
Firstly, we can reduce our carbon footprint by being aware of how much electricity we have been consuming. Doing this will not only help in minimizing carbon footprint this new year but will also help you save money by lowering your electricity bills. You can easily do this by turning off lights that are not in use, and by converting your lighting and appliances to energy-efficient ones.
There are many energy-efficient appliances now in the market. An example is the ones powered up by an inverter. Basically, an inverter is a tool that regulates the frequency of the electrical current that is coming into the appliance, resulting in less electricity consumption. A lot of appliances are now powered by inverters, such as Samsung split type aircon, Whirlpool topload washing machine, and Condura two-door refrigerator. By switching to these appliances, you’ll get lower electricity bills, while reducing your carbon footprint.
Solar panels are also becoming the new electricity source. These solar panels make use of renewable energy that, when converted to electricity, does not produce harmful emissions that pollute our air. Unfortunately, they are quite expensive, however, if you have the budget, consider getting them this new year to help protect the environment
We all know how valuable water is, and with the more frequent water interruptions all over N.C.R., the importance of conserving water comes into play, thus becoming a part of the new year 2022 resolutions.
Did you know that old toilet bowls use approximately seven gallons of water every time you flush them? Switching to newer toilet bowls will help you in this new year’s resolution as newer models are more efficient in flushing and will require less amount of water.
If you’ve been using a shower or bathtub every bath time, you’ll be able to reduce your water consumption using a water dipper and a pail instead. Moreover, again with the frequent interruptions, investing in these two things will be helpful for everyone in your household.
If you’re one who has allergies or you’re living with people who have allergies, then open windows to let the natural air come in and the polluted indoor air out. Yes, you’ve read that right. Air pollution can be in our homes as well, and this can trigger an allergic reaction among people who have allergies. The different substances present in our homes, such as the chemicals from cleaning materials, paints, and cigarette smoke, can all contribute to air pollution inside our homes. This is why for this new year’s resolution, let’s clean the air inside our houses.
Other than opening windows, you can install an exhaust fan in the kitchen and bathroom. For other areas of your home, an air dehumidifier will be helpful to reduce moisture inside your homes, which will prevent the growth of molds and dust mites that are both considered to be allergens.
You may not have any previous experience of being robbed before, but new years don’t only open doors for opportunities, it also opens risks, which is why one can never be too sure. For AllHome, it’s important that we keep our place secured. Placing CCTV cameras can be helpful, especially the ones with a feature where you can view what’s going on in your house in real-time even when you’re away. With a camera installed, you’ll have protection and your mind will be at peace.
Other things that you need to secure are the lighting and water system in your house. Other than decluttering, put it in your new year resolution to conduct home inspections and check your pipelines for any leakage, your power outlets for any problems, and your door locks.
Now that we have new year resolutions that will ensure that our home is safe and organized, it’s time to establish resolutions that will also maintain our relationship with other members of the household, at the same time, beautifying our homes. Try doing home improvement activities with your family such as planting a garden, repainting walls, or rearranging the interior of your home.
Listing New Year resolutions is a great way to keep you focused on your goals for this year. Having a list will remind you of the habits you intend to keep. It’s even better when your resolutions include ones that will improve your relationship with other people and your surroundings. Adapting the resolutions included in this article will make your homes organized, eco-friendly, comfortable, and more secure making them a place where you can feel relaxed and safe after a long day.
