WWW.UPANDCOMINGWEEKLY.COM 24 UCW AUGUST 16 - 22, 2023 Dog Days of Summer As summer sizzles on, PWC reminds you to take extra care to save power and water. Follow these tips to lower your bills! • Conserve power during Summer Peak Hours (3-7 pm weekdays). Do laundry, run the dishwasher, etc. during Off-Peak Hours when electric rates are 35% lower. • Keep your A/C set at 78° (higher when you're not home). A programmable thermostat will help. • Use fans and close blinds/curtains to keep the sun out. • Service your cooling system and change filters monthly. • Follow the Odd-Even schedule for watering with automatic/unattended sprinklers (only water when you need to). Install a rain sensor on your sprinkler system to avoid watering on rainy days. • Check for/fix leaks in hose faucets. Be sure you always turn them all the way off. Customer Focused. Community Strong. 17604 Scan the QR code to visit www.FayPWC.com/ Energy-Conservation-Tips/ and find more conservation tips to help you save this year during the Dog Days of Summer!
