The good news is that right inside your own house you will find many ways. First, take a look at your windows, check to see that they have a good tight seal to them, this can be a large energy consumption and tally on your electric bill each month, winter or summer it don’t matter, so checking the seals is a must. Secondly, take a look at your doors and windows for this one, in the daytime during the summer, look at placing the blinds down and deflecting some of that light out of the house, especially if its a room not being used at the time.
