Save Energy, Save Money
From refrigerators to
furnaces, air conditioners to washing machines, the Consumer Guide to Home Energy Savings
can help you find energy-saving products in order to maximize energy and dollar savings in
your home.
Save Energy, Save the Environment
Every time you buy a home appliance, tune up your heating system, or replace a burned-out
light bulb, you're making a decision that affects the environment. You are probably already
aware that most of our biggest environmental problems are directly associated with energy
production and use: urban smog, oil spills, acid rain, and global warming, to mention a few.
But you may not realize just how big a difference each of us can make by taking energy use
into account in our household purchasing and maintenance decisions.
Make Good Choices about Energy
For over a decade, the Consumer Guide to Home Energy Savings has helped people who
care about their budgets and about the environment to find energy-saving products. Inside
this new, 8th edition of the Consumer Guide, you will find:
- up-to-date lists of the most energy-efficient appliances and equipment by brand name
and model number
- tips, diagrams, charts, and explanations on nearly every facet of home energy use --
insulation, dishwashing, laundry, cooking, heating and cooling, food storage, windows,
lighting, and much more
- updated information on energy-efficient equipment, appliance standards, and the latest
tips for saving energy
- expanded information on ENERGY STAR® -labeled products, including new ones such as freezers
and compact refrigerators
- which investments in energy efficiency pay for themselves
- why EnergyGuide labels on appliances can be misleading
- which energy-saving products work and which offer more hype than savings
- how to save hundreds of dollars by replacing your least efficient appliances and buttoning
up your house
- Energy efficiency pays. Join the millions of consumers who are saving money while saving
the earth. Reduce your energy bills and make a positive impact on national security, the
economy, and the environment.
