IID encourages customers to keep cool this summer while helping the local electric grid.
Here are a few quick and easy ways that can help in staying cool and conserve energy:
.Keep your air conditioner maintained; regularly replace your AC’s air filter.
.Set your thermostats to 78 degrees or higher when you are home.
.Avoid the use of major appliances between the hours of 4-9 p.m.
.Turn off unnecessary lights.
.Unplug, or turn off, electrical devices that are not being used.
.Keep blinds and drapes closed to prevent the sun from heating up the home.
.Use floor or ceiling fans when possible; however, turn them off when you leave a room, as they only cool people, not spaces.
