Conclusion
Energy and water use are closely tied to an individual's productivity, health and
comfort. Too much or too little heating, cooling, or lighting can make workers unproductive,
customers unresponsive, and visitors or other occupants uncomfortable. Fortunately,
there are many ways to reduce energy and water consumption and costs without adversely
affecting anyone. And some improvements, such as reducing glare and overlighting,
can actually add to health and productivity as well as saving money. Many of the
tips listed in this booklet are not exclusively linked to one resource. For example,
steps you take to reduce your water usage may lower your hot water heating costs.
Other improvements you make to your home, such as adding insulation in the attic,
will not only protect your home but will also lower both your cooling and heating
costs.
If you have any questions about the energy and water-saving tips we've listed, please
call the Florida Public Service Commission's Division of Regulatory Compliance and
Consumer Assistance at 1-800-342-3552. You may also want to call your local county
extension office, your water management district representative, or your local utility
office.
Conservation begins with you, and the things that you do at home every day!
