Getting Your Home Ready For Summer

With summer right around the corner and with green living in the spotlight now more than ever, it’s easy to get caught up in the little things we can do for practical energy conservation. Homeworks offers a couple quick tips to save you money:

REMEMBER YOUR THERMOSTAT

Set thermostats to 25°C (78°F) in the summer. This is considered the standard cooling setting for this time of year.

THINK ABOUT YOUR VENTILATION

Use an exhaust fan to pull excess heat and humidity out of the kitchen and bathroom.

DON’T FORGET THE DRAPES

Keep drapes and curtains closed in sunny areas of your house to keep cool.
