1. Replace your air filter or clean your filter area depending on your system. This not only helps save energy, but also prolongs the life of your system and provides a healthier indoor environment.
2. Replace old light bulbs throughout your home with CFLs. If every American home replaced just one light with a light that's earned the ENERGY STAR, we would save enough energy to light 3 million homes for a year, save about $600 million in annual energy costs, and prevent 9 billion pounds of greenhouse gas emissions per year, equivalent to those from about 800,000 cars.
3. Turn off & unplug all appliances & electronics when not in use.
4. Get a yearly checkup for your home air system/ HVAC. Duct leaks, incorrect settings, and inefficient systems can easily increase your bill by 15%.
