The higher the glass package you purchase the more you save because the tighter your house becomes. Some research indicated that by replacing windows you can save between 15-40%.

Yes, there will be energy savings because of the enhanced R-factor (less to heat and cool). Some ICF manufacturers claim 70% savings. This depends on the design - windows are a big factor - to be safe - 50%.

Niagara Mohawk, an electric company in upstate New York, estimated that a 10,000 sq. ft commercial building would save $500 annually. National Fuel Gas, a utility company in the same area, estimated an annual savings of $300 for gas heat in a 6,700 sq. ft. office/warehouse complex.

The FTC's Appliance Labeling Rule and the R-Value Rule address energy savings claims for appliances, lighting products, and insulation. For example, under these rules, energy efficiency claims in ads must be based on specific standardized tests. If you advertise appliances online, ask the FTC for Disclosing Energy Efficiency Information: A Guide for Online Sellers of Appliances.

Use the energy savings calculator to determine the cost savings of switching from an HID system to a fluorescent lighting system in your workspace. You will need to know the annual burning hours of the system, the energy costs in your area, your estimated labor rate, if your system will be dimmed (% of time and brightness), fixture quantity, total wattage, and lamp cost.

In the case of Japan, a 3.12kW PV system will generate annual energy savings equivalent to around 770 liters of oil. (Savings may vary in other parts of the world depending on local conditions.)

Because the American Tankless Water Heater eliminates the "stand-by" method of heating water and operates on an as-needed basis only, you will save money on your hot water heating costs, even if you replace a gas water heater. The typical savings are in the range of 40 % with replacement of a gas water heater and 50% with replacement of an electric water heater.

Absolutely. The final part of the program includes training your entire staff on the system, including an “Air Champion” who will continually monitor and maintain your compressed air system to keep it operating efficiently. As a result, your facility will likely experience reduced downtime and decreased maintenance costs for your compressed air and related systems.

In general, building owners will save the most money on energy bills by installing an ENERGY STAR qualified roof product if their building has the following characteristics: high air-conditioning bills, a large roof surface as compared to the building's overall size, lower levels of insulation, and/or a location in a hot, sunny climate.

ICF manufacturers report that, depending on windows and roof systems, you can expect to save between 50 and 70% on your heating and cooling expense, over traditional construction. Several homeowners have reportedly applied these saving to their mortgages in order to take advantage of early payoffs utilizing "saved" funds.

Cool" roof products can decrease the amount of heat transferred into a building and reduce peak cooling demand, resulting in lower air conditioning bills. As always, actual savings will depend on the whole building design (i.e., windows, insulation, etc.).

Yes. A properly installed, maintained and calibrated gas detection system can produce significant energy savings by running ventilation fans only when required, minimizing energy usage and expense.

Contact the Energy Management Division at (323) 881-3939, Monday through Thursday from 7:00 a.m. through 5:00 p.m. An experienced energy management representative will provide you with information on energy savings options appropriate for your facility.

The energy efficiency improvements to a home adds value to the home. The rating report provides the additional value the energy improvements will add to a home.

No, not at all, we ensure that in every case we are able to deliver savings without affecting the quality of building services.
