ener-G-save tip for January: Plug the Holes in Your House!
If a door or window was left open in the winter, you would close it because that would be such a waste of energy. What if there are holes that you haven't noticed where heat is streaming out of your home? Be sure to:
- close the damper and glass doors if you have them on your fireplace:
- cover in-wall air conditioners
- weatherstrip windows and doors
- lock windows to make sure they're tightly closed
For do-it -yourself, cost-effective air sealing, see this article.

Already had an Audit? Help Spread the Savings
ener-G-save is a philanthropic project aiming to educate and motivate more people to use the energy efficiency programs offered by the utility companies. We've learned that the most effective method of motivating people is for them to hear from a friend or neighbor who had an audit.
Would you forward this email with a message about how you are benefiting from your home energy audit? Letting 5 friends or neighbors know is likely to lead to 2 or 3 more audits.
Please give us a call with questions or suggestions at 413-279-9141 or email ener-g-save@cooppower.coop.
Thank you,
The ener-G-save team
