If you’ve just moved to North Carolina it’s possible that you moved into a home that is not entirely energy efficient.

Upgrade Appliances

Outdated appliances are the biggest culprit of energy consumption. While replacing major appliances can be a costly investment, they will add to the value of your home and save you money on energy costs over time.

Replace Old Windows

If your new Greensboro home has old, poorly insulated windows, your heating and AC systems will likely have to work overtime. Save money and energy by replacing your old windows with new windows rated for energy-efficiency.

Install New Doors

Similar to windows, old doors can also result in added costs for cooling and heating. Look for sturdy, energy-efficient models that provide more insulation in comparison to their flimsier counterparts.

Switch Light Bulbs

Something as simple as switching your light bulbs can make a huge difference in your energy costs. Compared to incandescent bulbs, energy-efficient bulbs use about 70 to 90% less energy and last up to 25 times longer. Certain energy-efficient bulbs can save you up to $80 over the lifetime of the bulb, making the decision smart and easy.
