Energy efficiency

Simple things you can do to lower your energy bill

We offer a variety of programs and resources to help you save energy and money for your home or business.

Icon-thermostat

Turn up your thermostat

Set your thermostat no lower than 78 degrees. Every degree lower can raise your bill as much as 3%. Heating and cooling systems are the biggest electricity users in your home.

Icon-sun

Keep the sun out

Keeping your blinds, shades and curtains closed when the sun is hitting the windows keeps the sunlight out so it doesn’t heat up objects in your home.

Icon-LEDbulb

Use LED or fluorescent bulbs

The next time you replace your light bulbs, choose fluorescents or LEDs. They are more energy efficient and generate less heat while in use.

Icon-house

Keep the cool in

Seal cracks and holes around doors, windows and ductwork. Weather stripping and caulking will help keep the cold air inside the home and the heat out.

Icon-airfilter

Clean and replace air filters

Cleaning or replacing the air filters on your air conditioner allow your units to operate efficiently and can reduce electricity consumption by up to 15%.

Icon-lightswitch

Turn it off

TVs, computers and other common household devices use electricity even when not in use. If you aren’t actively using it, shut it down.
