Smart Kitchen Upgrades Ideas for 2025

What could be the cause of higher energy usage in a standard house in Florida? You thought about it, and we all thought about it… yes! The humid and hot climate (specially in summer!)

The kitchen is one of the most energy-intensive areas from a house.

In this article we share smart and cost-efficient ideas before you start your kitchen remodeling.

1. Appliances: look for refrigerators ENERGY STAR® certified models, select new dishwashers with eco modes available, induction cooktops over traditional electric/gas and modern, low-energy quiet fans.
2. Smart Lighting: go for LED which uses 75% less energy and last longer, efficient placement reduces lighting needs, automate lights to turn off when not in use and implement dimmers and motion sensors to reduce energy usage.
3. Smart Tech for Automation: voice activated appliances or lighting through Alexa or Google Assistant, energy monitoring system that allows you to track real time energy consumption and smart thermostats connected to kitchen.
4. Sustainable materials: locally sourced and eco-friendly cabinetry, natural ventilation and reflective backsplashes to reduce heat absorption.

Try to implement any of these ideas and you might be able to save big money in the long term.

Make sure you give us a call and choose a Florida-Base Contractor who understands local energy codes, familiarize with climate conditions and plenty of experience in kitchen remodeling projects.
