8:06 am	Living An Eco-Friendly Life Doesn't Need To Be Tough It doesn't need to be that difficult to live environmentally friendly. Don't brush aside the effect that ostensibly minor changes can have. You don't have to scratch your head about how to start - just find a new use for something you might usually throw away. You can also try reducing the amount of garbage you generate, on top of recycling more. Here are a few hints to get you thinking more about eco-friendly living. See to it that you maintain your furnace in efficient working order, as its running costs are expensive. Nearly all of the energy consumed in your home is because of household heating, which likely accounts for 60%. Filters should be replaced on a two-monthly basis for optimal efficiency. Reusable filters, which can be washed repeatedly, may really be the best option. Their upfront cost is higher, but this is offset by how long they last and they should cost less over time. Proper care of your furnace can be done in a couple of minutes, yet increase the efficiency by over 50%. Together with having your furnace run more efficiently, have a thermostat that you can program, so you can set the temperature. Avoid using unnecessary power during those periods when the dwellers are all sleep, or outside the home. This is not very beneficial for the environment, and even worse for your checkbook. You will save power, during the nights, or when nobody is home, by having set the thermostat a couple of degrees cooler in winter nights, or higher in summer. You can program the thermostat to the temperature you would like when you get home or when you get up the next morning. A fiberglass blanket wrapped around your water heater will improve the efficiency of this recognized waster of power. This kind of blanket, which is available from any hardware store, will help hold heat in the heater. You can install the blanket yourself very easily, and pay for it, with your power savings, within the initial year. If your water heater has to be replaced, you need to change to one of the new hot water heaters that are tankless. There is no tank full of water which keeps needing to be heated, and water is heated only when it is wanted. You utilize less elecrticity this way, which not only brings down the cost of heating your water, but also is beneficial for the environment. You may not be ready to do all of these suggestions, or any part of them, but living a green life doesn't mean that your life has to altogether change. Get started with what you can or wish to do, but do it immediately. Just think of the overall benefit if each person in your town resolved to do just one thing. Why don't you try to set the example for other individuals to follow, by taking the first step and doing something. If you found these suggestions helpful, go ahead and pass them on to others.
