Financial Opportunities

  • Install skylight windows in your roof. Skylights allow natural sunlight to come into the room. No more turning on an overhead light. Skylights will save tons of money on your utility bills.




  • Use motion sensor switches. Motion censor switches will turn your lights on and off so you don't have to. Not forgetting to turn the lights off will save the environment, save your money, and save electricity.




  • Install solar panels in your home. Solar panels can heat your home in a completely natural way. Extra energy can be stored for later or even sold to back to your utility company for compensation.




  • Use low-flow toilets. Low-flow toilets use less water than traditional toilets. This can save water and money.




  • Use low-flow shower heads. Similar to the low-flow toilet, low-flow shower heads use less water than traditional shower heads. Again, it saves water and money.
