While İ was looking at the site of Department of Energy, İ found a useful guide to share, which is the Energy Savers Guide. There are some good tips on saving money and energy at home.
-Clean warm air registers, baseboard heaters, and radiators as needed, make sure they are not blocked by furniture, carpeting or drapes.
-Clean or replace filters on furnaces and air conditioners once a month
-Air leaks can waste a lot of energy dollars. One of the quickest energy saving task is caulk,seal and weather stript all seams,cracks and openings to the outside
-Set your programmable thermostat as low as is comfortable in the winter and as high as is comfortable in the summer,as well as you are sleeping or away from home.
-İf you heat your home with electricity and live in a moderate climate, consider an energy efficient heat pump system to reduce your energy consumption.
-Repair leaky faucets promptly, a leaky faucet wasted gallons of water in a short period of time.
