Energy Saving Tips for Your Home

Heating and cooling account for about 56% of the energy use in a typical U.S. home, making it the largest energy expense, according to the US Department of Energy.

One degree of savings adds up. For every degree you lower your heat in the winter, you'll save up to five percent on heating costs. Slip on a sweater and set your thermostat to 68 degrees (or lower) during the day and early evening. Setting the thermostat back to 55 degrees (or off) at night or when you're out-of-town saves 5-20% on your heating costs.
