I came upon a small company in Washington, Missouri owned and operated by a retired couple that have developed a filter made for use only on electric clothes dryers which allows the user to return the hot, humid air back into the home during the winter months.

The name of the product is Dryernet and basically recycles the hot air coming out of your dryer ( I wonder if it could be used in Congress) and puts it to use to reheat your home. It also filters out 99.5% of all contaminants including smell. With the extra heat added to the home, the furnace doesn’t have to work as much, the moisture added to the environment gets rid of static electricity and in many cases, this filter shortens the time required to dry the clothes. So, this little filter saves energy for the furnace, saves electricity from the dryer and makes the home environment much better to live in.

Pretty innovative for a little filter that takes no time to install and takes up no more space than what you have right now and will save you money on your electric bill. The product website shows that people are saving 20-30 dollars a month using Dryernet, that being true than the product can pretty much pay for itself in a month or two. Definitely worth talking a look.

Check it out>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> at Dryernet.com and pass it on, it’s always nice to see small companies sprout up from Green Innovations.

Green Shopping can be fun and  eBay is a great source of Eco-Friendly products. Whether you are looking for a gift for your environmentally conscious friend or just something for around the house.

By using Vintage or Used products you are giving those products a new lease on life and at the same time reducing the use of new raw materials and the energy needed to produce them.

Look for items made from recycled, organic or sustainable materials like hemp, soy or bamboo. If you are feeling adventurous look for items that artists have given a second life to, like bags made from candy wrappers or soda can pop tops.

Don’t forget to look for items that can help us reduce our use of resources like solar powered phone chargers, or hybrid energy efficient computers.

Don’t overlook refurbished electronics, if you are not a slave to the “latest” fashion in electronics, you can often find great deals in refurbished electronic and at the same time keeping those materials out of the landfill.
