Remodel With An Eye On Energy Savings
Those planning on remodeling their home or condo will now find it much easier to make intelligent choices with energy savings in mind. Experts are generally in agreement that the average kitchen accounts for 20 to 40 percent of a home’s total energy bill. If your refrigerator and dishwasher are more than 10 years old, you can reduce your utility bills by replacing those old appliances. Another money-saving trick is to size your appliances to your needs. The style of fridge is important too. In general, models with the freezer on top use up to 25 percent less energy than comparable side-by-side models. Models with through-the-door ice and water use more energy too.
