Inefficient lighting and appliances waste energy and cost you more in the long run. With the waste heat they throw into your home, they can also have unplanned effects on your comfort, especially during the cooling season. We will consider the lighting and appliances in your home when recommending improvements. When shopping you can choose lighting, refrigerators room air-conditioners, dishwashers, and consumer electronics that carry the ENERGY STARq label. All ENERGY STARq qualified products meet strict energy efficiency criteria without sacrificing performance or aesthetics.
