Do you use your oven a lot? Is your fridge always running (if so, why aren’t you chasing after it…hark hark hark. sorry, couldn’t resist). If your fridge is always running, it means you are probably either setting the temp too low OR are packing the fridge so tight that it’s no longer efficient).

Several years ago I had a guy from SDG&E come to my apartment to see how it could be made more energy efficient. It was a free program if you qualified. He told me to keep more stuff in my refrigerator to make it more efficient. A fridge will have to keep turning on to maintain a certain temperature. It will need to do this less if it is full of cold food/liquids rather than just perpetually cooling an empty box. Makes sense.
