Is Your Off-Peak Heating System Ready For Winter

It’s hard to believe winter is right around the corner. Since weather conditions and future wholesale power market prices make the amount of load control hours hard to predict, all of our off-peak members are encouraged to have a reliable, automatic dual heating system in place and ready to use.

To ensure your total comfort this winter, consider the following questions about your backup heating system:

  1. Is the system sized to heat your entire home or business?
  2. Does it maintain an adequate comfort level?
  3. Is it reliable?
  4. Is it fully automatic?

Check current fuel prices and be sure to fill your propane or fuel oil tank at the beginning of the season. Also, make sure your tank is large enough to hold an adequate supply. Remember, prices typically rise as demand increases during the heating season.

Our member services department is glad to answer any off-peak questions you may have. A loan program is also available to assist you in replacing your old, inadequate off-peak heating system.

If you have any questions regarding off-peak or your electric heating system, please call our Energy Service Department.
