Wrapping Up Energy Awareness Month, October 2013

Once again we used the power of social media to focus on daily education (and sometimes amusement) in
support of October being National Energy Awareness month.  This is just one way we seek to fulfill our Mission to Save Energy, Save Money and Save The Environment. Looking back over the month, here are the top insights.

You are worried about the impact of winter on your home energy bills and comfort.

There is still time to prepare for the coming frigid winter
Our most popular posts were around the frigid winter weather predictions ahead, and how NOW is the time to prepare for Mother Nature and the rising heating costs.  While many people may contemplate a new high efficiency furnace as the solution, remember that may NOT in fact be your problem.  Prevent yourself from wasting thousands of dollars by having your home tested first to really figure out what’s going on.

Insulate yourself from energy loss.

Our two-part series on understanding the role of insulation and the different types of insulation available was a hot item.  Missing insulation is consistently one of the top 3 issues we find during our home energy audits.  To minimize the cost of your insulation – and maximize your benefit – you first need to know exactly where the insulation is missing from, and if there are related issues that need addressed beforehand.

You like animals in sweaters.
'Sweater Weather' included Scottish ponies in sweaters 

Hmmm….we won’t judge!  Our Friday Facebook ‘Sweater Weather’ feature was such a hit, we’re thinking of running a contest where you can vote for the Sweater Champion – stay tuned!





And remember, you can always look back on our energy saving tips anytime – it doesn’t have to be Energy Awareness Month.
