Tips To Improve Energy Efficiency and $10,000 Smart Home Energy Makeover Giveaway!

A special thank you goes out to FPL for sponsoring this post “Tips To Improve Energy Efficiency and $10,000 Smart Home Energy Makeover Giveaway” opinions expressed are that of my own.

Not too long ago, my husband and I upgraded our kitchen appliances as well as added a new freezer.

These upgrades were not only beneficial for aesthetic reasons, but also gave us peace of mind that we were being more energy efficient. Our next project is actually in the works (adding a microwave over the stove), however I am certain that there are less involved upgrades we could make to help improve our home and save on our energy bill.

Thanks to FPL I got those answers and if you are also looking for simple ways to save money on your energy bill, check out the following Tips To Improve Energy Efficiency!

Add a Smart Thermostat-

A smart thermostat connects to a home’s Wi-Fi and can be controlled from a smart device. They are designed to help families control energy usage remotely, which will ultimately save money. In addition, check to see if you are eligible for a $150 A/C rebate being offered from FPL by visiting FPL.com/EasytoSave.

Set up electronics via Smart Plugs or add connected light bulbs or light switches-

If you forget to turn off a light or a small appliance, these definitely come in handy. Plus it is nice to have control of your home from the palm of your hand as well as when you are away for the day or for an extended vacation.

ENERGY STAR® appliance(s) –

Depending upon the age of your refrigerator, oven, or the machines in your laundry room, you may benefit from an upgrade to save on costs. It may just be worth your time to do a comparison of aging devices to newer ones.

Proper insulation –

Do you know what level of insulation you have in your home? This could be an area that will help you save money on your monthly energy bill. FPL is actually offering a rebate up to $190 for adding recommended levels of ceiling insulation. See if you qualify by visiting FPL.com/EasytoSave.
