July 6, 2018 by rbenjamin Leave a Comment

Everyone living in Millburn-Short Hills can do eco-friendly upgrades.Energy efficiency is proving to be important to those living in Millburn-Short Hills. It can be a great investment to add energy efficient items to your Millburn-Short Hills property. Not only will it ease your energy spending in the short term and be better for the environment, but also make your home desirable to buyers when it it is time to sell. The types of green updates available are growing in number and the cost is also coming down. Do some research and think about what types of upgrades you would enjoy having in your home, and if selling is in your near future, check in with a seasoned real estate agent to talk about what the best use of your money would be.

Millburn-Short Hills Property Owners Increase Appeal with Energy Efficient Improvements

Here are a few popular upgrades to consider. Installing energy efficient doors and windows is really a no brainer for your property. These doors and windows will help save on heating and cooling bills, but also add security and more soundproofing to your home. Go a step further and consider installing or upgrading solar panels on your home. Recent upgrades in solar roof tile and battery storage system technology have really taken this industry to a new level. Bulky solar panels are out and sleek new designs are in and save consumers more than ever. Smart tech devices are also the way of the future. Home hubs, smart thermostats, and other systems that learn from your habits and preferences help save money and enhance a family’s lifestyle.

Other current trends point to keeping design natural. Natural bamboo, untreated wood, wicker, and other environmentally conscious items are in. When replacing curtains, choose chemical free, natural fabrics and keep things clean and simple. This natural design can stretch outside as well for those living in Millburn-Short Hills. Choose landscaping that will naturally help keep your home cool, such as strategically placed shade trees. Also opt for plants that are native to your area and do not require a ton of water to thrive. Energy efficient upgrades offer many enhancements to your life such as energy bill savings, more appeal to future buyers, and simply feeling good about taking care of the environment.
