DOES IT SAVE ENERGY TO LEAVE THE LIGHTS ON OR TURN THEM OFF?
Dec 10th
Question by corona7w:
Does it save energy to leave the lights on or turn them off?
My roommate and I were arguing about leaving the light on or off. All the light bulbs in our home are those energy-saving kind. I told her to turn off the light whenever she leaves a room, but she argues that turning on the light again later actually spends a lot more energy than leaving the lights on for whole time when she is away. Is she right?

DOES IT HELP SAVE ON THE ENERGY BILL BY TURNING THE OFFICE THERMOSTAT UP OR DOWN BEFORE EMPLOYEES LEAVE?
Oct 20th
Question by ParkerSpain:
Does it help save on the energy bill by turning the office thermostat up or down before employees leave?
This is a recurring debate in our office. I state keeping the thermostat on a steady temp. is more efficient. Others think that by making sure the heat or AC does not cut on over the weekends or at night is most efficient. For example, for AC, this would be changing the thermo. from 75 to 80 to save energy. Doesn’t that mean that the units just have to work harder to get the temp. back to 75 when the employees come back to work?

We want to save energy and cost for our office, and someone recommends that we must turn off our personal during break times, which is 15 minutes to 60 minutes only. Is there any study about this?

DOES IT ACTUALLY SAVE ELECTRICITY TO LEAVE THE HEAT ON ALL THE TIME?
Sep 8th
Question by Kelsey [Gone]:
Does it actually save electricity to leave the heat on all the time?
As opposed to having the heat come on and off periodically during the day, does it actually save the required start-up energy to leave the heat on all the time? Is it true that the energy required to begin up the heat several times a day is more than leaving it on all the time?
I’ve heard this, but I have never found any proof of this despite some searching. Does anyone have any information?
Speaking for a standard two-level, 1980′s- built home with attic and partially underground basement.
