Turn off the water heater when on vacation, and turn its regular
heating temperature to 49 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit)
to avoid scalds and save money all year round.
A 15–watt compact fluorescent bulb
produces the same amount of light as a 60–watt incandescent bulb.
If every Canadian home replaced just one 60–watt light bulb with a
15–watt compact fluorescent bulb in a heavy use area, we would collectively
save $63 million annually in energy costs and reduce our GHG emissions
– equivalent to taking 66,000 cars off the road!
