Energy Audits can save you Money!
Cindy and I live in a home that was built in 1990, we have maintained the home throughout our 15 years of home ownership. AC was replace, roof, hot water heater, etc. So just a few weeks ago our son said “it is Hot upstairs!” We also noticed our electric bills were increasing and so we went online to our Electric Company (TECO) and they offer several options for Energy Audits.
