As summer approaches, we look for ways to reduce the amount of heat in our homes. By using LED lightbulbs you may reduce the amount of heat in your home as well as reduce your carbon footprint! Here is a link to a great article from Washington University in St. Louis on using LED lightbulbs. We offer two free LED lightbulbs during an EcoVisit.
