Energy e�cient bulbs save money in two ways. (1) The new bulbs cost more to buy, but they last 10 times as long as the old bulbs. (2) The new energy e�cient bulbs use much less electricity to operate. Count the number of lightbulbs in your home. How many are SAVING energy? How many are WASTING energy?

Use the POWER TO SAVEon your electrical bill

Read these tips and mark the back panel to �nd out ways your family is

SAVING and WASTING electricity.

Share your results to everyone in the family and work together to save money.

Water heaters are one of the BIGGEST power users! One way to save money is to use less hot water. Each person in the family can save hot water by taking short showers or �lling the tub only about six inches for baths.

Mark this item “WASTING” if there some family members take a “swim” in the bathtub or long showers.

Make sure there’s a full load before running the washer and dryer and the dishwasher. This saves both the electricity to run the appliance and the electricity to heat the water. Most clothes will come clean using only COLD water settings instead of HOT or WARM.

Mark “WASTING” on the checklist if your family uses small or partial loads.

When your family buys a new appliance, look for the Energy Star. Buying energy-e�cient products could save one-third on your family’s monthly power bill. Look for this star on washers, dehumidi�ers, dishwashers, refrigerators, freezers, and room air conditioners.

Mark this item “WASTING” if your family purchased a new appliance without an Energy Star.

The microwave or toaster oven uses less electricity than the range.

Use the small appliances for small jobs and don't forget that warming two items at the same time saves money.

Mark “WASTING” if you crank up the big cook stove for every little item.

Direct sunlight shining in windows heats the rooms inside and your air conditioner has to work harder. The solution is to

close the window shades and curtains and to the cover windows before leaving so the house doesn't get so hot while you're gone.

Mark this item “WASTING” if you �nd direct sunlight heating up your home.

1. If cool air is escaping from around windows and doors, check the box for WASTING money.

2. Mark this item WASTING if you found direct sunlight coming in the window and heating your home.

3. Fill in the number of lightbulbs in your home that are SAVING energy. How many are WASTING energy ?

4. Is everyone in your family SAVING on electricity used to heat water by taking short showers and shallow baths?

5. Mark SAVING by doing only full loads and using COLD water to wash clothes?

6. Mark SAVING if you made a “Think Ahead” sign to remind everyone that holding the refrigerator door open wastes money.

7. Mark SAVING if you sometimes use the microwave or toaster instead of the range.

8. Mark this item WASTING if your family purchased a new appliance without an Energy Star.

Keep the cold air inside the refrigerator and you’ll save electrical power and $$$.Make a sign for the refrigerator door that says: This will remind everyone in the family to decide what they want before opening the door.
