Energy Saving Tips

1) When driving on the highway, use your cruise control to maintain a steady speed.

2) Save electricity when cooking by using a kettle or covering a pan when boiling water. Plus, turn off the burners and the oven several minutes before the cooking time is over. Both will shorten the amount of time the heating elements are on.

3) Install low-flow shower heads, toilets and aerators on kitchen and bathroom sink faucets to save water. They will cut water usage by as much as 280 gallons a month for a typical family of four.

4) Get into the habit of turning off lights when you leave a room.
