Beat the heat and keep costs down
As temperatures rise, so can your energy use. We're here to help, with energy choices and discounts that save you money and tools to keep your home cool and comfortable all summer long.
Simple ways to keep your home cool and save
78º is great
Set your thermostat at 78º and use a smart or programmable thermostat to automatically adjust the temperature.
Keep cool air in
Keep blinds and curtains closed during the day. Open windows during cooler evening hours.
It pays to be a fan
Use ceiling, attic and portable fans to stay cool. Remember to turn them off when you leave the room.
Clean and tune
Have your central air conditioner tuned up and clean or replace filters monthly for efficient operation.
Wait 'til late
Run the dryer and dishwasher at night on hot days and let your dishes air dry.
Wash in cold
Wash clothes in cold water and clean the lint filter in the dryer after every use.
Low energy cooking
Minimize indoor heat by using a microwave, toaster oven or outdoor grill instead of the oven.
Unplug
Unplug appliances and electronics when not in use. To make it easier, plug home electronics and computers into smart power strips.
Beat the heat
If you have a pool, use a variable speed pool pump to save on energy costs. Also be sure to keep the intake grates clear of debris.
Plant trees
Consider landscaping with leafy shade trees. Plant them on the southeast and southwest sides of your home.
