Hartman strives to reduce property expenses. Expense
reduction not only benefits both landlord and tenant, but also
often times results in properties operating in an energy efficient
matter. Electricity is a significant percentage of our annual
operating expenses, so it is very important that we work together
to keep these cost under control. On average, we have kept our
energy consumption 10-15% lower per property when compared to a
national average. We encourage you to reduce expenses by
practicing many of the same energy saving techniques that we
do.
- Leave blinds closed
- Avoid the use of equipment that confuses thermostats
- Wear appropriate/seasonal clothing
- Purchase energy efficient equipment
- Be mindful of energy consumption
- Shut down devices not in use
- Report any malfunctions in appliances
These are all ways that we can work together to save on energy
consumption.
