Reduce your carbon footprint with energy efficient appliances
When it comes to keeping a household & the environment clean, use as little energy as possible with efficient appliances.
Energy efficient appliances are built to get the job done without compromise or sacrificing the quality of your work, while using the minimum amount of energy necessary.
For example: dishwashers and washing machines.
Even if you choose a setting on your regular washing machine for a light load, it still uses more energy than what’s necessary.
Yet, when you do the same household chore with an energy efficient machine, it uses even less energy while still cleaning. Thanks to new technology, your clothes may even come out cleaner with the energy efficient machine.
The less energy you use, the smaller your electric bill will be and the less impact you’ll have on the environment. Whenever you run an electrical appliance, energy is created and has the potential to harm our environment.
Make your house more attractive with efficient appliances.
When it’s time to sell, homebuyers may see efficient appliances are better for both the environment, and their wallets. Since more and more people are looking for ways to go green, you’ll also add significant value to your home.
Put your environmental impact into perspective:
- your greenhouse gas emissions can be reduced to about 130,000 pounds for the life of your energy efficient appliances. Not to mention the Energy Star program has reduced emissions by 2.4 billion tons.
- Even something as simple as a ceiling fan can help you go green. Many people already use them to save money on air conditioning.
If you don’t already have a ceiling fan in your home, consider installing one and you’ll find yourself using less air conditioning. Better yet, install an energy efficient one and really save money!
Thanks to the internet and wireless technology, appliances like thermostats can now be controlled remotely.
- This means that you can increase or decrease the temperature of your home, regardless of where you are.
- No more high energy bills because the heat was left on when nobody was home. Simply upgrade your current thermostat to a smart one.
These are just a few suggestions on the types of energy efficient appliances you can have installed in your home.
Do a quick internet search or visit your local appliance store to see other ways to go green.
