the face of a smiling homeowner who followed a few of
my simple hints on saving energy around the house and
who can now afford that holiday or little extra treat that

Half your home energy dollar
goes towards heating your hore,

and insulating the walls and attic
is the most effective way of keep-
ing the heat in.

Call a reliable contractor to find
out if your home is properly in-
sulated. Depending on the level of
insulation, it could save you up to
a quarter of your energy bill.

You can reduce your heating
bill by 20% to 30% by sealing the
gaps and cracks in your house.
