Reflective Insulation:
This handy gadget that attaches to your dryer vent, directs the warm humid air from your clothes dryer back into your laundry room instead of outside through the dryer vent. It has a screen that can be cleaned and a damper so that the hot air can be directed outside during the cooling season. Energy ConservationShop for Clothes Dryer Heat Saavers at AM Conservation GroupCut your water usage down to 1.6 and 0.8 gallons per flush with a new toilet. A family of four will save as much as 18,000 gallons of water and $170.00 annually over a 3.5-gallon toilet. Water Conservation More than half of the heat lost up through your roof in the winter and that comes down into your house in the summer is radiant (infrared) heat. Traditional fiberglass bat and cellulose insulation work well to slow conductive and convective heat flow, but don’t do much to stem the radiant heat flow. Radiant insulation reflects the heat back down into your house in the winter and back up through the roof in the summer so that it never has the chance to heat up your attic. Hence, it keeps your attic much cooler in summer and warmer in winter, greatly reducing the difference in temperature between the inside of your house and the attic and in the size of your energy bills both in summer and winter. Energy Conservation We all lead busy lives and sometimes this can lead to waste. For instance, it can be very easy to forget to turn off the sprinkler in the front yard. Using a timer you can water in the morning when there will be the least amount of evaporation. You can eliminate over watering your lawn, since the timer will automatically turn the water off when it has finished the cycle that you have set. These timers can typically be set for time periods from 15 to 120 minutes and do not require batteries to operate. Water ConservationShop for Hose Timers at AM Conservation Group |
