It may not be worth it for me to go solar, so now I'm going to focus on the list. What list? The long list of things that a person can do, to help them use less electricity. I've already made sure all my appliances are energy star, and I've already replaced all my light bulbs with compact florescent. But what else remains? I'd like to see a list of things, that way I can do them all and check them off one by one as I accomplish them. Here's what I have so far:
1. Attic foil, or radiant barrier
2. New energy efficient windows
3. Going around the inside and outside of the house and sealing off all cracks that let air out. (but with what? Spray foam? Silicon?)
4. More vents under the roof overhang, outside the house. Where the roof hangs over the walls, some people put little vents in there. Does this really help?
5 ???
I'd like to see other things that I can do.
