Myth: Modern energy saving appliances are not worth buying and won't save you money.
Fact: when buying an appliance, you should remember that it actually has two price tags; the first price is what you pay in order to take it home, and second is what you pay for the energy and water it uses. Energy Star qualified appliances incorporate advanced technologies that use 10 to 50% less energy and water than a standard model of the same kind. The money you and your family save on utility bills will usually more than make up for the cost of a more expensive but more efficient Energy Star model.
Money saven tip: most States have various rebate programs to help encourage you to purchase Energy Star appliances. The rebates are usually subject to available of funds.

Myth: installing an extra insulation blanket on your hot water heater will save energy.
Fact: maybe but you should check first. The idea of adding extra insulation to a home's hot water heater came out of the responses to the energy crisis back in the 1970's. Back then hot water heaters were not much more than a steel tank with very little insulation. So it did make sense to add insulation to your hot water heater of that era. Modern units of the last 15 years or so, have been built with optimal insulation levels for the most part. The potential saving is much less, if not gone completely. The fact is you very will might void the manufacture's warranty. So be sure to check the manufacturer's specifications and directions first.
Money saven tip: the best and sures way to save monet, if you are using an electric hot water heater, is to install and use a timer to control your hot water heater. you see by scheduling the heating only when its needed and turning it off when its not, you'll be able to cut down on the standby loses.

Myth: replacement windows will cut your heating bill by 30% and is always a good idea.
Fact: a window salesmen sure hate this, but the fact is that new windows are usually not economically justifiable. That is unless the windows that are being replaced are in really bad condition, from an energy perspective the amount you'll save will not pay for the investment in new windows for years. When properly installed, new windows will make your home more comfortable.
Money saven tip: most of the time older windows do not need to be replaced. But what they do need is maintenance and the addition of a good quality storm window. The end result of restoration will be a comfortable home with energy efficient. At a fraction of the cost of new windows.

Vermont Bring Todays Energy Efficiency To Yesteryear's Homes-Series Part 2, Baker Home and Commercial Properties Inspections, would like to go over some myths, facts and mistaken ideas that can cost you and your family money. Some old myths about energy become increasingly expensive. Others have simply become obsolete with advances in technology. While others are misinterpretations of old practices that have passed into home owner foklore.
Myth: Furnace filters are good for the whole season, you only need to change them once in the winter and once in the summer.
Fact: if the filter is restricting air flow at all, its time to change a filter. Just how often really depends on a number of factors such as, how long your system runs, the quality of the filters you use, and even the home's location. Fiberglas mesh filiters generally will clog faster than a more expensive pleated filter.
Money saven tip: investing in a removable electrostatic will usually be your least costly option over a relatively short time. When you need a clean filter all you do, is take the filter out and clean it off per the instruction of the manufacture and then reinstall it. No more disposable filters to buy and throw away. Many of the programmable digital thermostats on the market now a days. Are smart enough to even remind you its time to change your filter.

Myth: Turning your thermostat all the way up or down will heat or cool your home alot faster.
Fact: did your mom ever have you turn the thermostat all the way up, because she was wanting your home to warm up faster? Did it work? The truth is that basic physics and your home's heating and cooling system, is the determining factor as to just how fast the temperature is going to change inside your home. Putting the thermostat all the way to Max, only means if you go off and forget to turn it back down, your going to waste energy and your hard earned money. If your home has a manual thermostat, then only move it to the temperature setting you want the temperature in your home to be.
Money saven tip: Investing in and having a programmable thermostat, and letting it adjust the temperature so you and your family will be comfortable with in your home. A programmable thermostat sure will pay for itself in the very first year.

Myth: You can never add to much insulation.
Fact: there is an optimal amount of insulation that can be added in any given situation. Factors you need to consider include the available space. Do you remember the phrase, To much of a good thing? can hold true, when it comes to insulating. Adding to much insulation, especially when you pack it into to small of a space can be a waste of money, and not improve the energy efficiency of your home.
Money saven tip: Never guess! Be sure of the right insulation levels for your home's location and situation. The US Department of Energy, offers a mighty fine resource. Thats good for existing homes as well as new construction. Take the time to visit the DOE Zip Code Insulation Calculator at www.ornl.gov/~roofs/zip/ziphome.html.

Vermont Bring Todays Energy Efficiency To Yesteryear's Homes-Series Part 3, Baker Home and Commercial Properties Inspections, would like to go over some myths, facts and mistaken ideas that can cost you and your family money. Some old myths about energy become increasingly expensive. Others have simply become obsolete with advances in technology. While others are misinterpretations of old practices that have passed into home owner foklore.

Myth: Brick or stone homes are more energy efficient than typical frame homes.
Fact: The vast majority of brick or stone homes are actually just a veneer over a wood frame. While more durable than other forms of exterior cladding they offer no efficiency advantage in terms of a home's energy use. For practical purposes the walls of a modern home clad in masonry have to be insulated the same as a frame building sided with wood or vinyl.
Myth: Washing clothes in hot water will kill germs.
A typical home's water temperature is 120 degrees or less, so washing in hot water would be like putting the germs in a hot tub. Our modern laundry detergents are formulated to do their best in cold water. Since heating water is a major energy user it sure makes sense to use cold water and save money.

Myth: By running a air conditioner's fan continuously will keep your home cooler.
Fact: If the AC fan continuously keeps the moisture removed by the cooling unit from being discharged. That moisture is actualy re-circulated through your home. That is one cause of a cold, clammy-feeling home during ones cooling season.
Money saven tip: To circulate air the best, and the most economical choice is a ceiling fan. You'll find on most ceiling fans is a summer and winter switch that changes the direction of the fan's air flow. You want the air to be pulled upward's in the summer, to cool and downward's in the winter, to heat. Install ceiling fans in the rooms you and your family use the most. And remember to turn the fan off when you or all family members leave the room to save on your electricity bill.
