I just wanted to let everyone know that by helping the environment and saving energy, it really does pay off in dollars and sense also.
A few months ago, I changed most of the lights bulbs in my home from the regular we used to use to the Energy Star bulbs. We had some replaced prior to this, but this time we changed at least 85% of the bulbs in the house. Not only do these bulbs save money, they put out perfect light and last up to 7 years.
Along with the light bulbs, we also replaced our 12 yr old heating and cooling system with a Energy Star Certified system. This thing is great, it keeps the temp perfect in here and has a programmable thermostat to lower the air at night to save even more. It also controls the humidity in the home.
We live in Florida, so the temp. is still up there and were still using the AC as much as we were before. The big thing here is that our electric bill is $150 lower than it has been in the previous months, and even lower that this same time period last year. Our energy consumption has been cut by a good amount.
