Energy Saving Tips
Ways to Save:
Ditch the hair dryer!
Turn off your lights when you leave your room
Unplug chargers and other devices when not in use
Keep your suite doors closed
Reduce use of heat or air conditioning when outside temperature is mild
Wash laundry in cold water when you can
Report leaks so they can be fixed fast
Take the stairs, elevators use a lot of energy
Study at the library or other shared spaces to share energy usage load
Avoid fluctuating the temperature of your room - maintain one temperature (even better if everyone on your floor keeps the same temperature!)
In the summer, keep curtains or blinds closed to stop the sun from heating your room up and using energy
On cold days, keep your blinds closed to buffer the cold air from your window.
Take the stairs, or PACK the elevator!
Turn off your computer monitors when not in use
Unplug devices when they aren’t being used
