Some habits when using an electric kettle may seem harmless, but they can actually cause your electricity bill to rise and even pose a fire hazard.
1. Boiling Water Continuously
Many families have the habit of boiling several kettles of water in a row to save time and electricity while the kettle is still hot.
However, this is extremely dangerous. When the kettle works continuously, the heating element can overheat, leading to a higher risk of the kettle catching fi.re.
It’s best to let the kettle rest between uses, allowing the heating element to cool for about 15 minutes before adding more water. This not only helps save electricity but also increases the longevity of the kettle.
Boiling water multiple times in a row can cause the thermostat to trip, causing the kettle to stop working. At this point, even if you try to turn it on, it won’t work. The only solution is to wait for the kettle to cool down before using it again.
