Energy Conservation Involves Changing Habits

Driving less, wearing a sweater so the temperature can be set lower. Sometimes it meant doing without.

Energy Efficiency is not about saving or changing habits or doing without.

Energy Efficiency is about changing the way things work, so we use what we have more effectively.

Replace a light bulb with a compact florescent. It lasts longer and uses less electricity. In the summer it does not radiate as much heat, so the air conditioner works a little less.

You check the fuel usage, in miles per gallon, on a car before you buy it. Why not check the fuel use on your house? Just as keeping your tires at the proper air pressure and your engine tuned up in the car improves mileage – you can do tune ups to your house – and improving the fuel use.

The MPG measurement for your house uses a Home Energy Rating System (HERs). You can get a rating on your house or business. A prioritized Energy Efficiency Plan gives you the guidance to tune up your house or business, just as you tune up your car, and improve the rating.

Request a Energy Usage Analysis from EES. This analysis of your current spending will allow you to determine if a full inspection is necessary and may point you to some areas your personalized Energy Efficiency Plan will address.
