Brush My Teeth Without Water Running

REFLECTION QUESTIONAt HomeWhat other steps can you take each day to heat and cool your home more efficiently?
Michelle Parady 4/03/2025 5:22 AMI use shades that block the heat from the sun to reduce the need to use the A/C and keep the house cool in the warmer months. In the winter, they keep the heat from escaping, reducing the need to turn up the heat.
