Minimize Phantom Loads
In the average home 40% of all electricity used to power home electronics is consumed while they are turned off.
Check your Temperature
Turning your thermostat back (up in the summer, down in the winter) a degree or two reduces compressor and fan run times; reducing energy consumption and generating energy savings from 5% - 15%.

Control your Shades
Reduce the effect of outside temperatures on indoor setpoints by lowering shades on bright, warm days and very cold days to reduce the strain on your heating/cooling system. |
