Small modular homes can provide you with significant home energy savings. You'll slow the outflow of cash going to the utility companies putting more money in your pocket as a result.
What's key is taking a frugal approach in knowing what to look for. That's how I can help you!
- Energy efficient small house plans
are good first steps you can take to help ensure that you'll achieve maximum energy cost savings.- Heating
You'll want to make sure your furnace matches the square footage of your modular home. If you have a furnace installed that's made for a home larger than yours, then you'll end up wasting unnecessary fuel.
So, matching the right furnace to your modular home is key.
- Water Heater
It seems I just can't get off the heat subject. That’s for good reason.
Water heating is an energy vampire. Without a doubt, an inefficient one will suck the money out of your bank account.
So, it's important for you to avoid this when it comes to
energy efficient hot water heaters.
- Solar
The
cost of solar energy
can or cannot be expensive depending on how you approach it.
Bottom line, solar heat can save you a great deal of money if managed properly.
- Insulation
This is so important to keeping your energy costs down. As you'll see
here,
these insulation and other household tips can really save you a boatload of cash.
- Cooling
Although you can use room air conditioners to cool off your home, central AC is more efficient.
We like to use ceiling fans to cool down our house. In fact, we have these fans in just about every room.
We love them because they circulate warm or cold air for pennies a day compared to dollars a day for AC.
Actually, we use AC as well. But, we don’t have to run it nearly as much as we would had we not had the ceiling fans.
I can't emphasize enough how great a cost savings these fans will provide you with.
