Fall Into Energy Savings | Teems Electric

Fall is in the air! And with the season change comes the ability for many companies to save on both money and energy. Therefore, the team at Teems Electric wants to share tips on how your business can fall into energy savings this season.

Save Both Money and Energy

First, ask associates to turn off any and all computers if they’re going to be away for a long period of time, especially during a vacation or business travel. In addition, have everyone turn off the electronic devices in their offices at the end of the day in order to save on energy throughout the evening and night, helping to lower the monthly energy bill. This most definitely includes the lights. So don’t forget to turn out the light!

Second, you may to consider getting a water cooler. According to Energy Star, many businesses should look into purchasing energy-efficient water coolers. Why? Because water coolers are able to conserve more energy than a large refrigerator.

The Department of Energy recommends switching out lightbulbs in order to cut down on extra costs and energy. For example, when replacing incandescent light bulbs with energy-efficient compact fluorescent lamps, companies are able to spend 75 percent less to operate these lights and the light bulbs last 10 times longer.

Lighting isn’t the only thing companies can buy that is energy-efficient, however. Have you considered “energy-efficient” office supplies? Consider purchasing products like recycled printing paper, notebooks and cups the next time you need to order office supplies for both cost savings and energy savings.
