Homework for Your Home: Easy Efficiency Upgrades


Simple steps to boost your home’s energy efficiency and save money this August

Your home is a learning lab — and this month, KPUB is handing you a checklist to ace your energy efficiency homework. Whether you’re looking for quick fixes or affordable upgrades, these easy-to-do tasks can help your home perform better, reduce your bills, and keep things comfy all year long.


📋 KPUB’s Homework Checklist: Boost Efficiency Fast


Tackle these simple, low-cost upgrades to get extra credit on your energy savings report card:

  • Switch to LED bulbs: Brighten your rooms with bulbs that use up to 80% less energy and last longer.

  • Seal the gaps: Check around doors and windows for drafts. Weather-strip or caulk to lock in cool air this summer.

  • Set your thermostat wisely: Keep it at 78°F or higher when you’re home, and raise it a few degrees when you’re away.

  • Use ceiling fans: They help circulate air so you can feel cooler without lowering the thermostat.

  • Unplug unused electronics: Chargers and gadgets still draw power when plugged in — even if off!

  • Clean or replace HVAC filters: Dirty filters make your system work harder, hiking your bills.

  • Close blinds and curtains during the day: Block the heat before it sneaks inside.
