A great calculator of roughly how long (at American prices) various green home appliance upgrades take to pay back from green&save via treehugger.
(Figures shown are years to payback)
Programmable Thermostat 0.6
Standby Power Reduction 0.8
Compact Fluorescent Lighting 0.8
Hot Water Heater 'Blanket' 0.8
Shower Heads 0.9
Heating System Tune-up 1.1
Seal Duct Leaks 1.5
Dishwasher 1.5
Water Filters 1.9
Water Efficient Toilets 2.0
The total saving if you did all of these over 10 years would be $11,000
Not bad eh?
