MAKE ENERGY CHOICES THAT ARE SMART CHOICES
• Turn off lights when leaving the room or if not needed
• Have a home energy audit performed
• Ventilate & insulate attic space
• Close heating vents or radiators in rooms you do not use
• Use ceiling fans for cooling
• Lower your thermostat at night and use more blankets in the winter
• Keep your fireplace damper closed when there is no fire in the fireplace
• Turn off television sets, stereos, computers and other electric appliances whenever you are not using them
• Look for energy guide labels before you purchase appliances to compare energy efficiency
• Use energy efficient bulbs
• Check the door seal on your refrigerator to see if it is worn and needs to be replaced
• Install energy-efficient windows when replacing
• Repair and weatherize your current storm windows
• In the winter, close your curtains and shades at night and open them during the day to let the sun warm the room
• Replace or clean filters on heating and cooling systems
• Caulk and weather strip your home
