You have the power to make a big difference! When summer temps rise,
so does electric demand. You can help keep costs down for everyone.
Try turning up your thermostat a few degrees, closing blinds during the
day, switching off unused lights and waiting to run appliances until later
in the evening.

Summer fun means cooling off in the water. But remember, electricity and
water never mix! Keep all electrical devices at least 10 feet away from
pools, lakes or any water source and never bring them into the water. If
you’ve been swimming, make sure you’re completely dry before handling
any electronics to avoid the risk of electric shock.
