What is a Housekeeper?

The Electronic Housekeeper is an environmentally conscious console that makes it easy to switch off all electronic equipment and appliances to save electricity. It can also play music, stream online TV and send an SMS, in case you’ve forgotten to turn off the coffee machine – all with a good green conscience. In other words, the Housekeeper makes your home intelligent and saves electricity so you can take care of the environment.

From the Housekeeper’s touch screen you can control all your home’s electrical equipment – from computer to hairdryer – while monitoring how much electricity each appliance uses. The wireless console can also be remote controlled through your computer, and it can send you an SMS if you’ve forgotten to turn off the iron. The whole system is designed for you to just plug-and-play without hiring an expensive electrician.

Save money on your electricity bill

Switching off all your electronic equipment after use can be tedious, but it can save you a lot of money. Many appliances have standby consumption, which wastes a lot of electricity. With the Housekeeper you can monitor your electricity consumption and see which appliances spend the most energy. By simply turning off the standby consumption, an average family can easily save DKK 1.200 a year plus an extra DKK 600 per child. The Housekeeper itself does not use a lot of electricity, only the equivalent of DKK 80 a year.

Reduce your personal CO2 emission

According to numbers form the Danish Ministry of the Environment, in 2005 the average CO2 emission for each Dane was 9,6 tons – but everyone can influence 2/3 of that. By simply turning off the standby consumption, a household can reduce its emission by around 10 percent. The Electronic Housekeeper gives good advice about how to reduce the electricity consumption, making it possible to reach the benchmark of an annual 1000 kWh per person. For many, this is a reduction of 50 percent.
