Energy Conservation

Electricity

• Use compact fluorescent light bulbs or L.E.D. lighting.
• Turn off unused lights, appliances and computer monitors.
• Look for "Energy Star" appliances and electronics.

Natural Gas

• Don't leave doors and windows open when outdoor temperature is below indoor temperature.
• Seal air leaks.
• Turn thermostat down when you are not home and before you go to bed. A programmable thermostat makes this habit automatic.

Rain Barrels

• Collect rainwater in rain barrels for watering gardens and lawns.
