What Can You Do Right Now?

Set sprinklers to water the lawn or garden only - not the street or sidewalk.

 

Use the microwave to cook small meals. (It uses less power than an oven.)

 

Purchase "Green Power" for your home's electricity. (Contact your power supplier to see where and if it is available.)

 

Scrape, rather than rinse, dishes before loading into the dishwasher; wash only full loads.

 

Cut back on air conditioning and heating use if you can.

 

Turn off appliances and lights when you leave the room.

Insulation

The most basic, cost-effective way to lower your energy bills

As homes age, the level of insulating barrier compresses and becomes less effective. Even in newer homes, builders often install standard, but not optimal, levels of insulation. As a result, 92% of U.S. homes have inadequate insulation. Without that protective barrier to seal leaks, more heated and cooled air escapes the home. Insulation is a cost-effective, simple way to lower your energy usage and increase the comfort level of your home.



Radiant Barrier

Blocks up to 75% of the sun's radiant heat

Radiant barrier is a reflective technology that blocks up to 75% of the sun's radiant heat from entering your home through the attic. Our SolaShield™ radiant barrier spray is a high-tech coating originally developed by the U.S. military to make vehicles invisible to heat-seeking missiles. A thin coat of SolaShield applied to the underside of your roof deck can help reduce your attic's temperature by up to 35 degrees, decreasing the workload and increasing the efficiency of your A/C and heating system.



Ventilation

Keeps your attic cooler in the summer and drier in the winter

In the heat of summer, proper ventilation prevents heat build-up in the attic, reducing the load on your home's cooling system. In cooler months, it serves to pull out the warm, moist air generated by laundry, showering, cooking and so on. This prevents moisture from becoming trapped in your home's insulation and under the roof deck, where it can cause extensive damage.
