s we head into October, it's time to start thinking about ways that your home can go green. October is National Energy Awareness Month, and whether you are just starting your building project or are almost finished, there are many ways to add green touches to your home at any stage.
If you are just starting your building project, you may want to think about adding extra insulation to the places that need it the most. Proper insulation ensures that your home will be more comfortable down the road as well as lowering your energy bills, so it's an ideal investment to make early on.
If you are looking for green finishes, you'll want to consider some green flooring options such as cork flooring from Lumber Liquidators®, or No-VOC paint such as Benjamin Moore's® Natura®. Outfitting your home with ENERGY STAR® labeled appliances is another way that you can go green.
