Make Friends with the Trees
Let the trees do the work! Landscaping can be a natural and beautiful way to cool your home in summer and reduce your energy bills. Trees and shrubs can provide shade, break the wind, and reduce your energy bills. A well-placed tree can save up to 25% of the energy used in a typical household! And daytime air temperatures in the summer can be 3°–6° cooler in tree-shaded neighborhoods than treeless areas.
