If every home in the United States were to implement these energy-saving technologies, it would be the equivalent of taking all the homes in California, New York and Texas—32 million homes—off the power grid. The MyEnergi Lifestyle model also predicts: 32% reduction of PM 2.5. 35% reduction of PM 10. 38% reduction of NO x.
