Air Sealing Your Home
By having your home professionally sealed, you can reduce your heating & cooling costs by 20% or more.

Air sealing is a “once-and-done” lifetime repair. Once you’ve made this energy-saving upgrade, there’s nothing to maintain or replace. You simply keep enjoying the benefits of greater comfort and energy savings for as long as you own your home.

Home Insulation
If you’re undecided about adding more insulation now, think how you’ll feel when fuel prices shoot up again. No matter how you heat and cool your home, the same rule applies: energy upgrades pay for themselves faster as energy costs go up.

A roll of fiberglass insulation or a handful of cellulose insulation may not look like much, but these materials make a big difference in how your home retains heat during the winter and cool air during the summer. Think of how long coffee stays hot when you store it in an insulated thermos. That’s how your home’s insulation can work for you.

Radiant Barrier
An attic radiant barrier can cut air conditioning expenses by 10% or more. You can expect the most savings if you live in warmer climates where AC loads are high - especially if you have ductwork in your attic.

On a sunny summer day, the air in your attic can get hot. When attic air temperatures climb to 120°, 130°, 140° and higher, your house heats up too, causing your AC system to work harder. You end up using a lot more electricity and paying a lot more, especially if any portion of your HVAC system or ductwork is in your attic.

Ductwork
As much as 40% of an HVAC system’s energy consumption can be wasted due to faulty or leaky ducts. That’s why it’s so important for any home energy checkup to include thorough ductwork testing and evaluation.

Properly sized, properly installed ductwork is critical in any heating and air-conditioning (HVAC) system. Unfortunately, ductwork is frequently overlooked when evaluating a home’s energy performance. As a result, bad things happen, including issues with comfort, energy efficiency, indoor air quality, and safety.

Furnaces, Boilers, and Home Heating
Upgrading to super-efficient HVAC equipment can cut heating and cooling costs by up to 50%. (Depending on what you started with)

To get the most from a new HVAC system, it’s important to make other energy-efficient improvements like air sealing, duct sealing and additional insulation first, or at the same time. This way the new HVAC system can be smaller than the old one, and costs less to install and operate.

Air Conditioning
The older your air conditioning equipment is, the lower its efficiency. Technology has advanced and new air conditioning systems are MUCH better at converting fuel or electricity into cold air. Even equipment as little as 12 years old would be considered antique compared to new state-of-the-art equipment.

Hot Water Heaters
Day in and day out, your water heater delivers the steady supply of hot water you rely on for washing clothes, bathing and cleaning dishes. Hidden away in the back of a utility closet or a dark corner of your basement, your hot water heater is easy to overlook until you realize that it can account for a whopping 15% of your total energy usage. Improvements in water heating have the potential to save you hundreds of dollars a year or more, depending on how many people live in your home.

Lighting
What’s good for your house is also good for the country. If every household in the U.S. switched to energy efficient lighting, we’d save enough electricity to shut down 90 power plants!

You could save as much as $120 a year if you replace 10 standard 60-watt incandescent light bulbs and five 100-watt bulbs with equivalent CFLs. Over the life of your new CFLs, you could save more than $650!
