The California Home Energy Guide
Publication # 400-99-003
Cutting back unnecessary energy use is an easy way to
keep your hard-earned money from flying out the door.
California's Home Energy Guide offers dozens of energy-wise
ideas that you can turn into dollar-saving habits. Some are
as simple as turning off lights and appliances when not in
use or cleaning the filters in your heating and air
conditioning system. You may want to plant a tree or
install shade screens on your windows to keep the summer
heat from pouring into your home. Even by following just a
few suggestions, you'll save energy and cut energy costs.
Check out one or all of the following fact sheets and
you'll find ways to make your home more comfortable while
you control your energy costs. The fact sheets are Adobe
Acrobat PDF files. You'll need the free Acrobat Reader software in your browser
or on your computer to download, read and print these files.
