Saving money is high on everyone’s to do list, and saving energy is a good way to start. Using energy wisely is a matter of awareness, planning and knowledge. It is not just turning off a couple of lights and changing the settings on your thermostat.

At TLC you will find what you need to decrease electrical usage with out lowering your comfort level and lifestyle. We carry energy saving light bulbs such as compact fluorescent bulbs that use ¼ the energy of regular bulbs with the same light output. They also last up to 10 times as long as incandescent bulbs so can be a substantial savings. A compact fluorescent bulb that produces the same light as a regular 100-watt bulb can save up to $80.00 over the life of the bulb.

Motion detectors are another great energy saving device, they come on automatically and stay on only as long as they are needed. Look around your house to see where you might make some changes, it will benefit not only your wallet but the environment.
