Tips to Save Energy Today

• Set your thermostat comfortably low in the winter and comfortably

high in the summer. Install a programmable thermostat that is

compatible with your heating system.

• Use compact fluorescent light bulbs.

• Air dry dishes instead of using your dishwasher’s drying cycle.

• Turn off your computer and monitor when not in use.

• Plug home electronics, such as TVs and DVD players, into power

strips; turn the power strips off when the equipment is not in use (TVs

and DVDs in standby mode still use several watts of power).

• Lower the thermostat on your hot water heater to 120° F. or 65° C
