A 5 kW turbine in a good wind location can generate 8,000 to 12,000 kilowatt-hours per year, which may cover a large portion of an average home’s needs. Accurate output estimates require a professional wind assessment and a review of your household’s energy usage patterns.

Leaving vents open but closing doors in unused rooms will probably not save money on your energy bill.

They could also restrict airflow into and through the return vents, making the HVAC system less efficient.

Provide utility bills and clear access to all areas of the home, including the attic and basement.
