Save Money, Go Green

Regardless of your politics saving money is always a good idea. And saving money is exactly what re-energizing your home will do. And making your home more energy efficient is not as difficult as you may think. In fact, most techniques employed to curb domestic energy waste are simple and cost effective.

As energy prices continue to skyrocket, it's common sense to consider the energy efficiency of your home.

Here are a few tips:

• Install a programmable thermostat to keep your house comfortably warm in the winter and comfortably cool in the summer.
• Plant trees on the southern exposure of your home and install shades, blinds or shutters - preferably on the exterior of your home - to defend your home against direct sunlight.
• Air dry dishes instead of using your dishwasher’s drying cycle.
• Turn off your computer and monitor when not in use.
• Plug home electronics, such as TVs and DVD players, into power strips; turn the power strips off when the equipment is not in use (TVs and DVDs in standby mode still use
  several watts of power).
• Lower the thermostat on your hot water heater to 120°F.
• Take short showers instead of baths.
• Wash only full loads of dishes and clothes.
• Look for the ENERGY STAR label on home appliances and products. ENERGY STAR products meet strict efficiency guidelines set by theU.S. Department of Energy and the
  Environmental Protection Agency.
