Saving Energy and Money is Easy Using a Detective.

I read a recent article in the Wall Street Journal titled, "The Power of Knowledge", that really got my attention as an electrician.  You think you have seen it all until I read this article and realized that their are little devices like "The Energy Detective", that install on your main breaker box and give you a wireless, hand-held device to measure energy consumption in real time.

For example, a gentleman was stumped why his power bill was so high compared to his neighbors.  He changed his windows, added insulation, caulked frames...and, still couldn't reduce his power bill.

Then, he took The Energy Detective device down to his basement and when he held the device near his fluorescent fixtures, he realised he was spending an additional $100 per month due to old, energy leaking ballasts.  The same gentleman used the device to spot three outlets that had loose wires that doubled his energy consumption from the other outlets.

Devices like the energy detective are a great way to help you save money.  Give me a call today and I can talk to you about installing energy saving devices to help you save money.

Until next time,

God Bless!
