NO-COST, LOW-COST ENERGY SAVING TIPS in COLORADO

1. Weatherize your home and save up to 10% of your heating and cooling costs. A handy homeowner can seal up holes to the outside by weather-stripping doors and window, and sealing windows and gaps along the home’s foundation. 2. Set your thermostat to 68°. Your heating system will operate less and use less energy. Turn your thermostat down 5°at night or when leaving your home for an hour or more to save up to $70 on energy costs each year. 3. Install low-flow showerheads and faucets. It really helps! 1.8-gallon per minute showerheads can reduce your hot water consumption by as much as 10%. You’ll see savings up to $6 per year for a sink faucet aerator and $30 per year for a showerhead. 4. Switch to compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs. They cost a little more, but you can save about $50 over the life of just one bulb.

Plus, in the personal property bill of sale, the agent added light fixtures and even the hot water heater. Well, I know I don’t have to say this, but lig...
