Electric Savings Tips
  • Find a comfortable temperature and keep your thermostat there to save on heating/cooling bill
  • Make sure doors and windows are closed when heat/AC are on
  • Cut off lights when not needed
  • Follow the manufacturer’s instructions and periodically check your appliances to maintain their efficiency and save energy dollars.
Water Saving Tips
  • Use an automatic dishwasher if available - Dishwashers use only 9-12 gallons of water; hand washing uses 20 gallons
  • Take shorter showers - Average 5 minute shower uses 25-50 gallons
  • Periodically check toilets, sinks, washing machines, and other plumbing fixtures for leaks
