Go Greener with
Kill-A-Watt™

ComEd's Smart Ideas for Your Home SM program has donated two Kill-A-Watt™ energy meters to the library for circulation to our patrons to help residents learn about and reduce energy consumption. With it, you'll be able to measure how much electricity your household appliances and electronics consume. Each Kill-A-Watt™ meter kit circulates to Orland Park Public Library cardholders for one (1) week and comes with an easy-to-follow instruction card and worksheet to help you convert electricity use into the corresponding dollar amount. To checkout a kit, please see the staff at the Circulation Desk.
