Going Green - Is It Affordable?

CFL light bulbsThere is a myth that going green isn’t affordable or practical, however this isn’t true for many green products on the market.

Some of these energy saving products offset their costs by lowering electricity bills. Other eco products are just plain reasonably priced, decrease landfill waste, and make sense.

Here are some examples:

CFL Light bulbs - Use 1/5th the energy and last 10 times longer than incandescent light bulbs, reducing energy usage and costs

Energy Saving Dryer Vents - a solution for conventional dryer vents, which often act as an “escape hatch”, allowing outside air to enter your home through the exposed opening, increasing heating bills in winter or cooling bills in the summer

Reusable Water Bottles - a money saver thanks to replacing the need for buying cases of water, and decrease landfill waste

Evaporative Coolers - a portable evaporative air cooler provides substantial energy saving over refrigerated air units/air conditioners. An evaporative cooler provides you with cool and filtered fresh air, which is free from C.F.C and has low acquiring, maintenance and running (electricity) costs
