What should I know about my home's energy usage?
By Bob Millaway, South Jersey Community Expert & REALTOR®
Review your utility bills month by month to understand your energy patterns. The largest energy consumers are typically HVAC, water heating, and appliances. Schedule a home energy audit through your utility company to identify inefficiencies. Seal air leaks around windows, doors, and attics. Upgrade to Energy Star appliances when replacements are needed. Smart thermostats provide detailed usage data.
Why It Matters
Understanding your energy usage helps you target the most effective improvements, lower your bills, and reduce your home's environmental footprint.
