  "Don't setback your thermostat. You will
use just as much energy as you save at night
heating the building back up in the morning."
10
The Facts
Studies have confirmed that thermostat
temperature setback saves energy. You can expect
to save roughly 1 of your fuel bill for every
degree you turn down the temperature for 100
hours per week in the heating season.

Dont switch lights off because it takes more
energy to start them up again

minutes. Incandescent bulb usage is not increased
at all by switching.
