Going about a home energy audit is one smart way of cutting the utility bills that you pay for at the end of every month.

Many people tend to forget about the parts of their homes that might be causing the rise in the home energy consumption.

One fact that you must learn to take note of is that the home appliances that you possess, although they are switched off and not in use, still consume energy because of the phantom loads that they create.

Examples of these are the VCRs, stereo components, microwave oven, toasters, and the stoves.
