LOS ANGELES, Nov. 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As cooler weather approaches, Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) shares energy-saving tips and tools to help customers prepare their homes.
"As we transition into the cooler months, SoCalGas is here to support our customers in managing their energy use and by participating in energy efficiency programs, while maintaining comfort throughout the season," said Don Widjaja, vice president, customer services field and solutions at SoCalGas. "Together, we can take simple yet effective steps to lower energy consumption, which helps our customers save on their bills and contributes to a more sustainable future."
Energy-Savings Tips for Customers:
A great way to conserve energy usage is to upgrade older model appliances with new, energy-efficient ones. Find eligible appliances at our SoCalGas Marketplace site where you can purchase, finance, and schedule delivery of your new appliances. For example, replacing an old, inefficient clothes dryer with a new, more efficient model could save customers up to 20% in energy savings. Over the lifetime of the product, energy efficient models that have earned the ENERGY STAR® certification can save around $370 in energy costs.
For a limited time, through Nov. 30, 2024, residential and multifamily customers can get 50% more in rebates to purchase an eligible, qualifying energy-efficient appliance. No extra steps are needed; a customer's increased rebate will be automatically calculated. Eligibility requirements apply; see participating rebate programs' conditions for details. *
