Energy efficiency
Simple things you can do to lower your energy bill
Simple things you can do to lower your energy bill
Set your thermostat to the lowest comfortable temperature. The smaller the difference between the inside and the outside temperatures, the lower your bill will be.
Seal windows with heavy-duty clear plastic, either on a frame or taped directly to the inside of window frames, to reduce drafts and heat loss.
Open blinds, shades and curtains during the day to let sunlight naturally warm your home, and close them at night to reduce the chill from cold windows.
Schedule regular heating system maintenance and replace furnace or heat pump filters monthly or as needed.
Seal air leaks around pipes, recessed lights in insulated ceilings and unfinished areas behind cupboards and closets.
We offer a variety of energy efficiency programs and resources, like incentives and rebates, to help you save energy and money.
