Energy Crisis- Part 2
Posted 06/10/2011 by Dennis Crook
The average cost of heating a home for the winter in 2008 was $1000-$2500, depending on the size of the structure. However, for homes that use heating oil or propane, the winter energy bill can be nearly double the average.
And there seems to be no end in sight to the rising energy costs. In fact, energy costs have increased by an average of 2 to 2.5% annually over the past 50 years.
You may be one of the lucky ones who had managed to pay this winter’s heating bills. However, just how far can you stretch your budget next winter?
Now is the time to take stock of your home’s energy efficiency. A home energy audit/evaluation followed by energy saving improvements will eliminate those areas were your home (or building) is losing energy to the outside environment.
In most cases, you can fix quite a few problems on your own. By fixing the “Low hanging fruit”, (the basic improvements) it will pay off big in savings on your home energy costs. With monthly energy bills for some as high as a thousand dollars or more a month, even a modest 30 percent savings can mean the difference between having energy or facing shutoffs.
