Our members may not be able to control the weather, but there are a few things you can do to help lower your energy costs.

  • Inspect windows and doors for air leaks. An easy method to check for air leaks is to shut a door or window on a dollar bill. If you can pull the dollar bill out easily, you have an air leak. Seal any leaks with caulk or weather stripping to prevent air from sneaking into your home that would cause your furnace or air conditioning to work harder to maintain your desired temperature inside your home.
  • Are you changing your furnace or air conditioning filters every 30 days? The Department of Energy recommends changing your filters frequently. Having a clean filter allows proper airflow to help keep your home warm in the winter or cool in the summer. https://www.energy.gov/energysaver/ home-heating-systems.
  • Is your water heater located in the garage? If your water heater is in the garage, wrap the water heater and any exposed pipes to help your water heater work more efficiently.
  • If you’re looking to purchase new appliances, select energy-efficient products. Look for the Energy Star logo when shopping.
  • Thinking of replacing your thermostat? You could save money on your heating and cooling by simply using a programmable thermostat to adjust settings while you’re away from home.
  • Change out incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs. LEDs use only 9.5 watts compared to their 60-watt equivalent.

Want to find additional ways to cut your energy costs? Our trained Energy Management Specialist will perform a free energy review by phone or on-site and offer suggestions for energy-saving measures. The basic home energy review includes a survey of heating and cooling systems, lighting, windows and window treatments, doors, thermostats, electric appliances, shading, and living habits that may affect energy usage.
