Save Power Kit
Ever wondered why your electricity bill is so high but feel ‘powerless’ to change it? Simply borrow our Save Power Kit to discover how to save power, money and the environment.
Making small changes to how you use your appliances or heat/cool your home can make a big difference. Not only is it better for your bank account, but it reduces our impact on the environment.
It’s also a great opportunity to get kids involved and understand more about sustainability and energy use.
Why spend $900 on a home energy assessor when you can borrow the kit free from the library and do it yourself?!
