Energy Saving tips – Tip of the day #5

In researching energy tips, I saw these two tips on the same page and it cracked me up. So I just HAD to share them in the same tip/post!

Use Natural lighting. Open the curtains and shades during the day instead of using lighting. This allows maximum use of natural daylight and less energy consumption from using lights.

and I kid you not, this was then on the page:

Keep the sun out. Closing the blinds, shades, and drapes on the sunny side of your home during the day will help keep your house cooler, causing the air conditioner to use less energy bringing the temperature to a comfortable level

Hmmm… Interesting… So I guess take your pick to which works best in your situation? I just thought it was hilarious 🙂
