🥵 🥵 🥵 Heads up, everyone! We're bracing for a heat wave this week! We know those ACs will be running hard, but let’s try and stay as cool as possible and conserve as much energy as possible. Here are some ways you can do that:

• Meal prep today so you don't have to run the oven throughout the week. Try using the microwave, air fryer, or crockpot instead.
• Close your blinds and curtains during the hottest parts of the day to block out the sun's rays.
• Use fans to supplement your AC. A ceiling or portable fan can make you and a room feel several degrees cooler.
• Adjust your thermostat a few degrees higher if comfortable. 🌡️ 🌡️ 🌡️ Every degree makes a difference!
• Run large appliances like your dishwasher and clothes dryer later in the evening when temperatures aren't as hot.

‼️ If you aren't already tracking your energy usage, we encourage you to start. You can sIgn up in your Member Portal. Contact us at 910-353-1940 or joemc@joemc.com if you have any questions.

Stay cool, stay safe, and let's all do our part to conserve energy!
