Energy Usage Monitor

What if you could see the exact Energy Usage for each of your appliances? You would find out which ones use the most energy, which ones are using too much energy and which one are doing their job just fine.

Well, you can see how each appliance is performing. There are Energy Monitors that you can plug in to each appliances and see how much energy it is using at any given time. These monitors do not turn off your appliances or change how much energy they use but they give you valuable information regarding the efficiency of the products you own. If you use these monitors and conduct a Home Energy Audit that will evaluate your home's insullation, heating/cooling and finding possible air leaks, you can find out where you might be wasting energy and fix the problems that are costing you.

Energy Monitors seem to be easier to find online than in stores and here are some nice ones we have found. Prices will vary.
