Upgrading lighting and appliances
Upgrading lighting and appliances- energy used for lighting and appliances can account for half of your home’s total utility bill. When it’s time to replace your home’s appliances, be sure to purchase models with the ENERGY STAR. These appliances use less energy than conventional models. Many dishwashers that carry the ENERGY STAR are built with innovative technology to clean better while using less energy and water. And, today’s ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerators use half the energy of a typical refrigerator. You’ll find the ENERGY STAR on brand name refrigerators, dishwashers, clothes washers, room air conditioners, and home electronics.
We recommend replacing as many regular bulbs as possible with Compact Fluorescent Lights to help save on energy costs.
CFLs use up to 75% less energy and lasting up to 10 times longer than regular light bulbs. When replacing or installing new light fixtures, you’ll save time and money when you choose models that have earned the ENERGY STAR rating. According to the EPA, today’s ENERGY STAR qualified lights equal or surpass the quality of light found in conventional incandescent bulbs. You’ll save on energy bills plus the cost and trouble of constantly replacing bulbs.
