How you use energy on a daily basis.

Heating-in the 1970s and 80s was about 60% efficient that means they converted 60% of the energy in the natural gas into usable heat.

The efficiency has increased more than 50% in the last 30 years.

The average home spends 11 percent of its electric bill for lighting.

Appliances account for about 30% of your household energy count with refrigerators,cooking,laundry at the top of the list

All the energy sector that you use daily.

Energy consumption is how energy is used

In the 1970's natural gas furnaces converted 60% of the energy into usable heat.

Energy conservation is any behavior that results in the use of less energy.

Ways to conserve energy:

Install a programmable thermostat.

Air dry dishes

Turn off lights and electronics When not in the room

Plug electronics into power strips

Lower the thermostat on the water heater

Take short showers

Air dry clothes

Wash only full loads of dishes/clothes

Make sure Windows and doors are closed

Drive sensibly

Look for energy star saver on lightbolbs and other electronics

Check for air leaks

Check for open fireplace dampers

Make user your appliances are properly maintained

Study for family's lighting needs

Eliminate trapped air from hot water radiators

Keep the shades on your south facing Windows during winter

Make sure air ducts are properly sealed

Retrofit the roof with specialized heat reflecting material

Recover the roof with a new water proofing surface

Repair leaky faucets

Insulate your hot water tank

Drain a quarter water from your water tank every 3 months

Repair you current storm windows

Have your windows installed by trained professionals or you might not put them in right to not waste energy

Scrape food off of the dishes instead of rinsing off

Wash your clothes with cold water

Dry towels and heavier clothes in different loads from lighter weight clothes

Clean the lint screen in the dryer

Don't over dry the clothes

Use the cool down cycle

Select energy efficient office equipment

Take showers instead of baths

Use rechargeable batteries

Avoid aggressive driving which can lower the gas

Combine errands for less gas usage

Car pool

Don't water plants during the day

Inspect the dirty spots in the installation

Use solar panels on the roof

Use public transport

SHUT THE FRIDGE!!

Turn off the lights at night

Drug energy efficient vehicles

Insulate your house

Energy Consumption is the use of energy.

Many gas furnaces in the 1970s and 1980s were about 60% efficient. Now they are about 98% efficient. The efficiency of air conditioners and heat pumps has increased more than 50% in the last 30 years.

Energy Conservation is any behavior that results in the use of less energy.

HOW TO CONSERVE ENERGY:

Replace light bulbs with more efficient ones.

Install insulation so your heating system doe not have to work as much.

Wash only full loads of dishes and clothes.

Take short showers instead of long baths.

Drive sensibly-don't waste gas

Get energy efficient doors and windows to conserve heat.

Get energy efficient windows that use more than 1 piece of glass to insulate.

Place trees, shrubs, and other plants to provide shade and keep out the cool wind.

Keep the shades closed to have extra insulation from the outside when it is cold.

Even a 2 degree difference in your thermostat uses less energy. CHANGE IT AND JUST WEAR A SWEATER.

Buy appliances with the Energy STAR brand.

Plug home appliances (TVs and DVD players) into power strips and turn the strip off when the appliances are not in use.

Use solar panels.

Insulate your water pipes.

Air dry your clothes.

Walk to the store instead of driving.

TURN OFF THE LIGHTS!

Buy a new water heater that is more efficient.

Fix leaks in pipes and sinks.

Use low temperature settings when drying clothes.

If you are driving, try to carpool with others who are going to the same place.

Purchase fewer goods.

Purchase good with not a lot of waste from packaging.

REDUCE, REUSE, RECYCLE!
