Following is a list of the appliances in our database that have standby losses of 1 watt or less. This is not an exhaustive list of 1-watt compliant devices, but only those we have actually measured....
This is a very well done guide to sealing up air leaks in your home. Lots of good how-to pictures.
A couple small add-ons I would make:
- Replacing older can lights so that you can insulate right...
