Efficient Steps for Energy Efficiency

• The most effective and most important way you can
  ensure energy efficiency is by taking care of the
  insulation in your home, and this is where
  commercial electrical contractors can help.
• A home that is optimally insulated will help to
  save heat from getting lost from the inside
  during winter months, thus saving on your heater
  bills, as well as help in preventing too much
  heat from getting into the house during the
  summer months, thus saving you money in your air
  conditioning bills.
• In short, well maintained insulation helps to
  keep your home warmer in winter and cooler in
  summer, thus reducing your dependency on
  electrical equipments to keep your warm or cool.

Efficient Steps for Energy Efficiency

• Electricians will be able to advise and implement
  on the best materials to use for optimal
  insulation, whether it is foam insulation,
  fiberglass, or cellulose. Also, they will make
  sure that your attic, walls, ceilings, and any
  other spaces are well covered.
• Examine all your electrical appliances and
  upgrade the ones that are wasting electricity.
• For example, furnaces can waste up to 35 of
  energy if they are older models, especially those
  built before 1992. A condensing furnace can save
  more than 90 of energy on an annual basis and
  more than 10 on your energy bills.

Efficient Steps for Energy Efficiency

• Your hot water system is another area where a lot
  of energy is consumed. So you can upgrade or get
  this inspected in order to make it even more
  energy efficient.
• One way to do this is to make sure your hot water
  lines are properly insulated so that water
  doesnt get cooled off and the second way is to
  turn down the temperature setting to warm.
• Also, instead of a continuous loop that
  recirculates water, it would be more energy
  efficient to get on-demand circulating loops for
  hot water. This can be installed by experienced
  electrical contractors.

Efficient Steps for Energy Efficiency

• Replacing your incandescent light bulbs with CFL
  (compact fluorescent lamps) will not only result
  in less wattage consumed while generating the
  same amount of light, but will also last more
  than 10,000 hours, which means you have more cost
  effectiveness and energy saving per bulb than
  even two such incandescent bulbs put together!
• Install low-flow fixtures that save water, and
  thus, save energy, such as washing machines,
  shower heads, toilets, etc., that use less water
  but are as efficient.
• Make sure your refrigerator is on the energy
  efficient setting, which most modern ones have.
• When you go on holiday, ensure that the majority
  of appliances (which you dont need to be
  switched on) are not only switched off, but
  unplugged as well.
