-Anyone who has used gas and oil can reluctantly agree that green energy is cleaner, safer, and less expensive. But many people don't know how to implement green energy into their lives. So here are just a few of the many ways that green energy can be good for your home and your life.[[http://fr8pals.com/blogs/145779/263396/reasons-you-should-make-your-new|Composite Floor Deck]]
+How to Find a Landscaper for Your HOA

-Don't throw away that coffee grinds- use them to fertilize your plants. Coffee grinds are rich in nitrogen so these make great, healthy plant food. Using coffee grinds as fertilizer keeps them out of the landfill, makes it unnecessary for you to purchase and use chemical plant food, and make your plants grow nicely, adding oxygen to the atmosphere.
+Home Owner’s Associations feature a very important role in the development of communities. They have great responsibilities including managing the assets of the community, and assigning the right people for major roles in the association. One of the responsibilities of the HOA is community development that involves landscaping. Here are some tips to help you hire a good landscaper for your HOA.
-Turn off the kitchen, bathroom, and any other exhaust fans as soon as you no longer need them. Some people leave the fans on for 20 minutes or so, but it is better to leave them on for no longer than five minutes after showering, bathing, or cooking is finished.
+Look for an all-rounder
-Find out more about ground source heat pumps. These pumps are located under your home and pump the natural heat of the earth to keep you warm. This system can be costly but the pumps use very little power and can last up to fifty years. Invest in this system if you are going to stay in a home for decades.
+Certain landscape firms have contractors and professionals who handle everything associated with landscaping your community. This involves landscaper, gardeners, irrigation crew, and water companies to contribute towards the entire process of landscaping. Hire a company that undertakes all of these tasks. It would be cost-effective, and will save you a lot of time wasted in worrying about different contractors.
-Get an energy audit of your home. Having your home inspected by a professional is the best way to find out how you could adopt alternative sources of energy. In some cases, the sun or wind exposure is simply not high enough to justify investing in alternative sources of power.
+Good reviews often come from successes
-If you are in the process of, or planning to, design your own home, you can build some green energy sources right into your home from the beginning. Start by looking for land that has a water source such as a creek or room for wind turbines. Another good idea is to choose a roof with solar panels built in. You can even position them to get the most out of sunlight.
+Check the internet for reviews of different landscape firms. You can also contact your neighboring communities to inquire about other landscapers. It is likely that you will come across a list of landscapers who have been given great reviews for their work. Visit other communities to gain a perspective about their work, and draw up a list of potential landscape firms you would like to hire.
-[[http://wiki.argos-nalog.ru/index.php?title=Pros_And_Cons_Of_Choosing_A_Green_Energy_Provider|Composite Floor Deck]] Watch to make sure your refrigerator and freezer are at the proper temperatures. Do not allow them to get too cold. The recommended temperatures are around 37°-40°F for your fresh food compartments and about 5°F for the freezer. If your freezer is separate and used for long-term storage, keep it around 0°F.
+First meeting reveals a lot of information
-Consider investing in an electric kettle as a means of saving energy. Electric kettles use less energy to boil your water than stove-top kettles, and not only can they be used to make tea, but you can also use them to boil water for smaller meals you plan to cook.
+When you meet with people from different landscaping companies, be alert as you request for more information about their services. Evaluate their responses and analyze if they respond well to you. Make a mental note of how responsive they are when you contact them, as that would tell you if they communicate matters to you well in time. Check if they are well-adapted to technology so that they can stay in touch with the HOA through emails, and social media to post updates about their work.
-When you purchase new appliances, like refrigerators, ranges, and washing machines, look for the Energy Star label. The United States Department of Energy recommends these products because they save energy. You will also save money by using them. Products that are energy efficient will usually have a star on them.
+If you find a contractor that satisfies the needs of the community and the HOA, with skills and service, then hire immediately. It is alright if a few people are not happy about it. Make a judgment based on the majority poll at the HOA, and stick to it as you can derive good results from a great landscape contractor.
-Make small changes if you do not have a lot of money to invest or do not have access to the kind of resources you need. Get a small solar power installation to provide power for one room only, and get a few solar cells to charge your cell phone and other devices, for instance.
-A very easy and cheap way to save on your high energy bills is to try installing some low flow shower heads and faucets. Switching from the standard, 2.5 gallon/minute shower heads, to the low flow 1.5 gallon/minute ones, can help you save a lot with your hot water energy costs.
-[[http://www.viewdocsonline.com/document/lv4jzu|Composite floor deck]] Whatever your reasons for wanting to go green, stick with them! Saving money is in everyone's interest, as is working for a cleaner environment. Hopefully, you have learned enough from this article to begin putting green energy to work in your home, to see significant savings and feel better about the impact you have on the environment very soon.
