How to Save brochure

CFLs use 75% less energy and last 10 times longer than traditional bulbs. Outlet and light switch gaskets insulate to stop air leaks. Faucet aerators save water and improve efficiency. A filter whistle lets you know when your air filter should be changed, and the hot water temperature gauge measures the temperature of tap water to determine if the setting on your hot water heater should be lowered.
