Did you know that every year, American homes lose $13 billion worth of energy every year? That's an average of $150 per family!
Don't let your hard-earned energy dollars disappear into thin air - easy and low-cost insulation and weatherizing will help tighten up your home.
To get started, read through advice from energy experts at our PowerHouse: Home Comfort Tips site:
Is it worth the effort?
Yes! Upgrading attic insulation from three inches to 12 inches can cut your heating bills by 20 percent - and air conditioning bills by 10 percent.
A typical home will cost about $50 to weatherize, but you can save two to three times that much in energy savings in just one heating season.
You can find an energy-smart insulation contractor or retailer by using our online Dealer Locator.
