Environment

The environment is important to us, which is why as hosts we provide you with the means to respect the environment. As travelers you also have a role in adopting eco-responsible behavior in the RedLounge.

Heating and hot water

  • I close the shutters and curtains in the evening to limit heat loss and improve my comfort.

  • The ideal temperature in the main room is 19°C. If it exists, I look at the thermometer provided and if it is too hot, I turn down the heating before opening the windows.

  • To ventilate, 5 minutes is enough to renew the air without cooling the room.

  • If they are available, I follow the explanatory notes for the regulation system in order to use it optimally (thermostat, thermostatic valves, etc.).

Electricity

  • I turn off the light when leaving a room, even if it is a low-energy lamp.

  • Audiovisual devices consume as much in standby as in operation.

  • If power strips have been made available, I think about turning them off.

  • If the instructions for the household appliances are available, I think about selecting the most economical programs (which are not always the shortest).

Water

  • To save water, I prefer a shower rather than a bath.

  • I don't leave the water running while I brush my teeth.

  • Three minutes with an open tap, that’s 18 liters of drinking water going straight into the drain.

  • If the accommodation is equipped with a dishwasher, it is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher.

Waste

  • I respect the sorting criteria that have been made available.

  • I favor products with little or no packaging, especially when going to local shops and markets.

  • In nature as in the city, I only throw away my waste in the places provided for this purpose.
