Energy Saver Tips 🔌

Overfilling your refrigerator can increase energy use. Chilled air needs space to move evenly around food to keep everything at a safe, consistent temperature. When airflow is blocked, your refrigerator works harder and uses more electricity.

Through HCEOC’s Weatherization Assistance Program, eligible households may receive energy-efficient refrigerator replacements when existing units are unsafe or inefficient.

✔️ Energy cost reduction
✔️ Appliance efficiency
✔️ Household reliability
