Planting trees in your yard is one of the simplest ways to add value to your home and create future energy savings, too. Since trees provide shade and shaded air is cooler, you can strategically plant trees so they provide shade wherever your air conditioning unit is. The unit draws in the cooler air, which means it uses less energy to lower the temperature and circulate air conditioning around the house. In just one year, you'll save about $250 in electricity costs alone.
