Energy Saving Tip

Check the insulation in your attic, ceilings, exterior and basement walls, floors, and crawl spaces to see if it meets the levels recommended for your area. Insulation is measured in R-values—the higher the R-value, the better your walls and roof will resist the transfer of heat. The Department of Energy recommends ranges of R-values based on local heating and cooling costs and climate conditions in different areas of the nation, but state and local code minimum insulation requirements may be less than the DOE recommendations, which are based on cost effectiveness. For more customized insulation recommendations, access the Zip Code Insulation Calculator at http://hes.lbl.gov/hes/makingithappen/tips.html to determine insulation levels for your new or existing home based on your zip code and other basic information about your home.
