Wonder how you can be more energy efficient on your own? Well you've come to the right place. One category of our blog will be dedicated to collecting some helpful, accurate, and creative resources for you to tackle energy efficiency in your home or business. Whether you are a renter, a home-owner, or a business owner, you will be able to find tips and tools to help you do-it-yourself here.
To get started, here's a few low/no-cost ways to save energy today:
1. Check your heating and cooling systems: Clean vents, replace dirty filters and program thermostats to account for different day and night temperatures
2. Swap out light bulbs: As about 10% of a typical electric bill is eaten up by lighting, swap out high-wattage bulbs with CFL or LEDs from EnergySmart to start saving money now.
3. Hunt for energy vampires: Unplug any unused devices in your home, even if they are turned off they are using energy.
