Residential Conservation Tips
  • Seal all gaps and cracks around fixtures
  • Use roof caulk to seal flashing around fixtures
    around chimneys, skylights, rooftop vents and
    plumbing risers.  
  • Reduce Temperature of Water Heaters.
  • Lids should be kept on when cooking in Kitchen.
  • Refrigerators should not be kept open longer
    than necessary.
  • Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the
    refrigerator.
  • Close curtains at dusk to prevent heat loss.
  • Insulate hot water tanks and pipes as much as
    possible to minimize radiation heat loss.
  • Replace incandescent light bulbs with high
    efficiency CFLs or LEDs for your indoor and
    outdoor lighting (Contact Island Energy for free
    CFLs and LEDs)
  • Dusty or grimy light bulbs can reduce light
    output substantially; give them an occasional
    wipe to maintain peak performance.
  • Timers, photo cells and occupancy sensors will
    reduce the total amount of time your lights are in
    use.
  • Replace old appliances with energy efficient
    units such as Energy Star labels (see below for
    rebate offers).
Commercial Conservation Tips
  • Equipment should be turned off and not left in
    standby mode.
  • Regularly replace aging light bulbs which
    consume more energy.
  • Set automatic sensors to create optimal heating
    and air-conditioning.
  • The installation of double doors will reduce
    heating and cooling losses.
  • Install presence detectors or controls that detect
    outside lighting intensity.
  • Replace office equipment with Energy Star
    Label equipment (see below for rebate offers).
