1) Lower your water heater temperature to 120°F,

2) lower your thermostat in winter

3) wash your clothes in cold water

4) turn off unneeded lights and electronics

Low-cost steps, also listed in order of savings:

- add insulation in your attic

I will make sure that all the tips you have posted will be done by me. I want to help in saving energy. If this will be done by all of us, I am sure lots of energy will be saved. Heating our homes during winter should not compromise waste of energy. There are lots of modern heating facilities that are environment friendly.
