An 'energy saving expert' wandering round someones house says a dishwasher left switched on after the cycle has finished uses 70% of the energy as if it was running. Then they go on to say washing machines left on standby can use 20% of the energy as if they were running.
Earlier on they had a house that had been insulated under the warmfront scheme and was now covered in mould (walls, clothing etc). Apparently an expert said the warm outer walls filled with insulation now meant that moisture could condense out on cold inner walls - presumably not just any walls, but walls specially made with a means of cooling them down lower than the rest of the property.
Zero ventilation apparently (on a house built in the last 10 years) and so they were having to open all the windows to keep the mould at bay.
