The Texas-based utility company encourages customers to take steps to increase energy efficiency at home.

Steps include changing or cleaning the filters in HVAC systems; using weather-stripping or caulking where cooled air may escape, like around windows and doors or where warm air could enter; blocking the sun’s rays on warmer days by keeping curtains or blinds closed when the sun is shining its brightest; conserving hot water with energy-saving showerheads; and when it’s time for new appliances, upgrading to more energy-efficient equipment.
