HVAC HOLIDAY TIPS: PART I

 

 

1. Switch to LED Christmas Lights

LED Christmas lights use 90% less electricity than regular Christmas lights, and can be purchased for around $10 a strand.

2. Use Fiber Optic Decorations

Fiber optic trees and decorations are the ultimate in energy efficiency. In most cases, they use a single light bulb located in the base of the unit to light the entire decoration? Now that is energy smart and budget smart!

3. Limit the Time Lights are On

Wait until dark to turn on your Christmas lights; then, turn them off before you go to bed. Six hours or less of daily use is a good goal to aim for. Do you have trouble remembering to turn your lights on and off?  Then, set a timer, and forget about it.
