Learn how to Save Energy at the Office

 High electric bills can put a strain on any business. The good news? A few simple changes can reduce energy use and lower monthly costs. 

  1. Turn Off & Unplug: Shut down computers, printers and other equipment when not in use - especially overnight and on weekends. Even idle devices draw power. 
  2. Install Motion Sensors: Use motion sensors or timers to automatically turn lights off in empty rooms like conference rooms, offices and restrooms 
  3. Switch to LED lighting: LED Bulbs last long, use significantly less energy and are more efficient than traditional lighting options. 
  4. Maximize Natural Light: Take advantage of windows and skylights during the day. Lighter wall colors can also help refelct light and brighten your space. 
Saving energy doesn't have to be complicated. Small steps can lead to big savings for your business. 

Baby Proofing Everything Electrical

 Electrical items are in every room of your home - outlets, cords, chargers and power strips. Most aren't designed with babies in mind. So taking a few simple steps can help keep your child safe. 


Outlet Safety 

  • Install tamper-resistant outlets 
  • Use outlet caps or safety covers on unused outlets. 
Cords & Charger
  • Keep Cords out of reach
  • Use code covers or hide cords behind furniture. 
  • Unplug chargers when not in use. 

Power Strips 

  • Use childproof power strip covers
  • keep strips off the floor and away from little hands
A little prevention goes a long way. Securing electrical items not helps protect your baby from unnecessary risk later
