When dusting in your office or home, don't forget about light bulbs and fixtures. Dust can absorb up to 50% of emitted light making it necessary to turn on more lights than actually needed. Dusty furnace or A/C filters, refrigerator coils or vents can all add up to more energy use as well. Even dust on electronics can force their fans and motors to run harder eating up more electricity. So the insight today is simple: clean, dust-free lights, furnace filters and electronics = less energy use thus money saved! Yay!
