The Queensland Government recently launched its Climate Smart home service. You may have seen the advertisements in the media. The service includes an energy audit, installation of 'green' light bulbs, installation of a wireless energy monitor (worth $240 - which you keep), installation of a water-efficient shower head (if needed) and tips on how to reduce your household energy consumption. All this is done by a qualified electrician. The service costs you $50.
