Tips to Save Energy

Americans spend an estimated $250 billion every year on energy for buildings. Using equipment and methods that conserve energy saves the individual or company money, while at the same time conserving the environment and usually improving the quality of the workplace.  Anywhere from better lighting that costs less to operate, to heating systems that last longer with less maintenence, to an overall better work environment is potentially possible through energy effiecient upgrades to existing equipment.
