Though many don’t know it, there are many ways a person can save money and energy by doing simple home improvements. The easiest and most common home improvement one can make is purchasing energy efficient light bulbs and replacing all old bulbs in the home. Savings can add up to be around 4.50 per year, per light bulb. These light bulbs can save 75 more energy and can last more than five times longer than a regular light bulb. These cost around 6.00 each and can be found at most department and hardware stores.Get more information here. http://frugaldad.com/2011/09/06/light-bulb-dilemma-incandescent-cfl-led/ Another way to save energy and money by managing your thermostat correctly. Most people don’t know that if you replace your air and furnace filters as needed it can actually save energy. It is also recommended that you turn down your heat 3 degrees during the winter, and turn your air up 3 degrees during the summer. This can save a household up to 10 off of their heating and cooling bill. Another way to save energy is to only use your dishwasher when it is completely full of dishes. Turn off any lights and electronics that aren’t being used. Always shut down your computer when you are finished.
