Q: How much energy is used to power a house?

• <div><p>Home power is measured in kilowatt-hours, commonly expressed as kWh. The average home uses between 800 and 1,000 kWh per month. Peak usage (and highest bills) occurs in the middle of summer and the depths of winter. Keeping on top of your usage during these crucial months will lower your annual average usage considerably. </p></div>

Q: When is a blower door test required?

• <div><p>While many states require all new construction to undergo blower door tests, it&rsquo;s not a requirement for existing homes. But in both cases, a blower test helps confirm that the contractor has sealed the exterior, that the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-of-ductwork.htm">type of ductwork</a> installed is functioning properly, and that your home is as efficient as possible. </p></div>

Q: Do leaving lights on raise the electric bill?

• <div><p>Leaving lights on raises the electric bill, but not as much as having high-wattage light bulbs. The best way to save on electric costs is to swap your light bulbs to LED or CFL bulbs that use far fewer watts. You can also use smart lights and light switches to control usage via a smartphone or voice-controlled device.</p></div>

Q: How can I ensure my fridge/freezer is energy efficient?

• <div><p>Keep the unit full but not overloaded, ensure door seals are tight, set correct temperatures, and avoid frequent door openings. Position the appliance away from heat sources for optimal performance.</p></div>

Q: Do string lights use a lot of electricity?

• <div><p>String lights require electricity, but not an excessive amount, especially when compared to other lighting fixtures. LED rope lights, for instance, consume around one watt per foot. Running six or seven light strings simultaneously should only cost you around $10 to $15 each month. You can save even more money by remembering to turn off your lights during daylight hours. </p></div>
