And the second tip also seems strange at first, but should be effective.

reports, it pays to open the cabinet doors in the morning.
Why?

and that in turn should help keep the apartment so warm.
If the cupboards are open, no heat can collect in them.
Heat in the apartment - tip 3: switch off appliances
It
is no secret
that the electrical devices in the household give off a lot of
heat
.
It is therefore advisable to switch off those devices that are not required.
