Reduce your energy bill while increasing the beauty of your landscape. Adding a few well placed trees to your landscape can decrease your energy bills. Adding as few as three properly placed shade trees can lower air conditioning costs by as much as 30%. Plant shade trees on the east and west side of your home for the greatest energy savings. Trees shading the roof from the afternoon sun can reduce your home’s temperature by as much as 8 to 10 degrees. |
