Save Green by Going Green | ||
Greening your home goes hand-in-hand with energy efficiency, which means more money in your pocket. Or does it? Though much is written about money-saving green products, what's the true amount you can expect to save when implementing earth-friendly ideas in your home? Utility and water rates vary greatly across the world, but when you dig deeper, regardless of location, there are a few eye-opening discoveries about conserving the environment, and your paycheck. End Water Guzzling Examine your water bill to identify the amount of water you are using on a regular basis. Some water companies bill some customers by the gallon used while continuing to bill others by the number of cubic feet of water used. Knowing how the latter translates into price per gallon may help you determine what you're saving—or letting go down the drain. Many people experienced sticker shock when compact fluorescent lamp bulbs were introduced. The bulbs were expensive and the quality of light was dreary at best. Update Your Appliances The argument against energy-saving green appliances—also known as Energy Star-rated appliances—is that since they are at least 25 percent more expensive to buy than traditional appliances, purchasing one of the appliances creates a wash.

Count the Degrees The way you heat or cool your home is a large chunk of your energy bill. Every degree counts, but it would help to put a dollar amount on it so you can think twice next time you want to keep the furnace humming at a toasty 72 degrees when 68 degrees would keep you comfortable and keep your budget much healthier. Insulate Your Money Save With Solar Most people turn their heads the other way when solar panels are mentioned: It's overwhelming in scope, cost and installation. You may make use of solar energy in a smaller, but meaningful way. Put a solar panel system in place of an expensive gas heater to warm up pool water, for example. Source: http://www.ehow.com/ |
