Cut Your Utility Bills For Good!
HomeEnergyMD President, Dave Gordon, gives ideas at the PRO Remodel Ohio Show January 29-February 1, 2009.
Spending money wisely is on everyone's mind today. Many families are looking at ways they can minimize unnecessary costs. Next to house and car payments, utility bills are often a big chunk of the household budget. Think you have to live with those big monthly bills?
"You don't have to!" says Dave Gordon, President and CEO of HomeEnergyMD and a designated National Association of Home Builders Certified Green Professional. "You can make a big dent in your home energy costs without giving up comfort. Determining where your home is losing energy is a key step in the process of addressing that energy loss. Working with a trained and certified professional who uses the proper tools and examines your home as a system is important and cost-effective. They can help you save 10-40% on your bills once those energy problems have been treated."
In addition to addressing the big energy saving areas, there are many things you can do around the house that are just a change of habit. For example, washing full loads of clothes and using cold water for the wash and rinse cycle can save a significant amount of the energy it takes to run the appliance. Changing all of your light bulbs to Compact Flourescent Lights (CFLs) can also save you on electric usage, and there is now a wide variety of bulbs available for just about any need you may have.

"Energy costs are expected to rise in the coming years," says Dave, "Lowering your energy needs today without sacrificing comfort will help you manage costs today as well as tomorrow."
