Bob's Energy Tip #1 Replace standard incandescent light bulbs with compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFLs) and save 75% of lighting costs.

Bob's Energy Tip #4 A 5° higher setting on your air conditioning thermostat will save about 10% on cooling costs.
Bob's Energy Tip #5 Always buy ENERGY STAR qualified appliances and equipment - they're up to 40% more efficient. Find rebates and incentives in your area using our rebate finder.
Bob's Energy Tip #6 Turn your water heater down to 120° or the "Normal" setting when home, and to the lowest setting when away. Water heating accounts for about 13% of home energy costs.
