Don't wait for your home's energy audit. Apply these 3 simple steps to start saving right now:

1.       Keep your thermostat between 70-75 degrees Fahrenheit while you and your family are up and about in the house. Lower the thermostat during the day when nobody is home or at night while your family is sleeping.

2.       Check for drafts coming through windows, doors and chimneys. Stop the loss of heat or cool air in the summer and you will save money.

3.       In cooler months, keep your curtains and blinds open to open to allow the warmth of the sun to help heat our home. Conversely, keep air conditioning costs down in the warmer months by keeping your blinds and drapes closed to prevent solar warming.
