Tips for maintaining a TruGreen Space
DID YOU KNOW THAT MANY HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCES ARE DRAINING ENERGY EVEN WHEN THEY’RE TURNED OFF?
According to the government’s ENERGY STAR program, 40% of the electricity that home electronics use is consumed while the products are turned off. Try unplugging appliances that you aren’t using, or plug them all into a powerstrip that you can turn on and off.
CHANGE YOUR LIGHT BULBS TO LIGHT WITH ENERGY STAR QUALIFIED COMPACT FLUORESCENT LIGHT (CFL) BULBS OR LED LIGHTS, LAMPS, CEILING FANS, AND FIXTURES.
Saving and Benefits: An ENERGY STAR qualified compact fluorescent light bulb (CFL) will save about $30 over its lifetime and pay for itself in about 6 months. It uses 75% less energy and lasts about 10 times longer than an incandescent bulb.
UPGRADelaware YOUR WINDOWS AND DOORS!
According to Energeystar.gov “Replacing old windows with ENERGY STAR certified windows lowers household energy bills by an average of 12 percent nationwide. Lower energy consumption also reduces greenhouse gas emissions from power plants and homes.”
REMOVE AND REPLACE OR ADD INSULATION TO YOUR HOME!
Adding insulation and air sealing around your home or commercial space can help you be more comfortable and energy efficient and provide up to a 10% savings on your annual energy bills.
