Save money! 12 money-saving tips on how to have an energy-efficient home Energy conservation, and the real cost savings it brings, begins with knowledge. Knowing how to save and where to save are the keys to an energy-efficient home this winter. Here are 12 tips that involve lit- tle or no cost and can help you save money on your heating bills, while conserving energy and making your home more comfortable at the same time. During winter months, open you drapes, shades or curtains during the day. Allow the sun to come in to help warm your house. At night, or when it's cloudy, close the drapes to keep the heat in and the cold out. Add caulking and weather strip- ping around your doors and win- dows. Cold air can leak into your home through gaps in these areas. Sealing the gaps can stop air leaks for greater energy savings and comfort. Add insulation in your attic. Heat which escapes through an improperly insulated attic may be responsible for up to one half of your home's entire heat loss. Using a quality product can help you save energy dollars year after year. Install storm windows and doors. You also can use plastic sheeting on the inside to seal out the cold. Install an automatic thermostat. This will allow you automatically to set back the temperature in your house at night and when you're not at home. Don't block registers or radia- tors. By blocking the flow of warm air with rugs, furniture or drapes, your furnace will have to work harder to heat your home. Turn the temperature down on your water heater thermostat. For most families, 120 degrees is suffi- cient for normal use. : Wrap the outside of the hot water heater with an extra layer of insulation. This will help keep heat from being lost through the walls of the tank. Install water flow restrictors in the shower and faucets. They reduce the flow of water. It costs money to heat water. Use a lower temperature setting on your washing machine. Change from hot to warm or cold washes with cold water rinses. Use fluorescent bulbs in kitchens, baths, laundry and work areas. Also, use warm white fluo- rescent adaptors for table lamps. Install three-way switches on lamps and dimmer controls to allow you to keep the lighting lev- els low when not needed.
