Watt's Lurking in Your Home? Banish Energy-Hungry Ghouls this Halloween!
Don't be spooked; we're here to shed light on the creatures that might be lurking above your head, below your feet, or in your walls, and provide you with the tools to banish these ghosties for good.
Ghost Drafts: Cracks, gaps, and holes can be like open doors for energy-wasting drafts. Air-seal your home with weatherstripping, caulk, or expanding foam to save energy.
Eerie Insulation: When your home lacks proper insulation, it allows heat to escape during the winter, driving up your energy bills. Ensure proper insulation to help your HVAC function efficiently.
Energy Vampires: Among the most insidious ghouls are devices that continue to draw power even when turned off. Eliminate energy vampires by unplugging devices when they’re not in use or slaying multiple at once with the help of smart power strips.
