10 Easy Tips to Save More Energy...

1. Remember rule number one: If you’re not using it, turn it off!
2. Get a setback thermostat, with newly installed batteries.
3. Use an automatic furnace humidifier, or a portable humidifier in bedrooms and common rooms.
4. If required, consider a dehumidifier in the basement or other damp areas.
5. Have your furnace, filters, and ducts (or radiators) checked for optimum operational condition.
6. Clean your windows, inside and out, and open you drapery on sunny days.
7. Upgrade your appliances to ensure you aren’t wasting money and energy unnecessarily (you may even be eligible for a rebate).
8. Use automatic timers on appropriate fixtures.
9. Caulk or seal all cracks and gaps around the outside of your home, and on the inside of exterior walls.
10. Turn your water heater thermostat down a couple of degrees.
