Previous Energy Saving U Workshops
Wind, Solar or Geothermal. What is the right technology for me? |
||
| Thursday, May 20 | Anthem Del Webb Sales Pavilion |
6-7:30 p.m. |
This workshop will review and compare three popular residential technologies: wind power, solar power/solar hot water, and geothermal heat pumps. All are considered 'green' or 'renewable', but which one is the best choice for your location, budget, and energy needs? Attend this workshop to learn how each technology works, how much you should expect to spend, how much you can expect to save on your energy bill, how long it will take to recoup your investment, and what rebates and tax credits are available to help you offset the installation costs. |

Insulate Your Duct Work |
||
| Tuesday, March 23 | United Power's Brighton Headquarters Office |
6-7 p.m. |
One major aspect of your home’s construction is wasting 20-30 percent of your heating and cooling dollars: your duct system. Ductwork, which carries conditioned air from your furnace or air conditioner throughout your home, is made of highly conductive sheet metal and is often located in unconditioned spaces like unfinished basements and crawlspaces. Due to the extreme temperatures in these locations 10-30 percent of the energy used to heat and cool the air in your home is lost through conduction. Duct insulation will save you 20-30 percent on your heating and cooling costs, improve discharge temperatures from registers by 10-15° and enhance the overall comfort of your home. United Power’s Energy Experts will send you home with the skills and knowledge to complete this project on your own. Dinner will be served. RSVP not required.
