The National Weather Service in Huntsville has issued a Heat Advisory for our area today, effective from noon until 8pm.

Customers are advised to remember the following tips for keeping energy use (and costs) down:
--Use fans (ceiling fans should spin counter-clockwise)
--Close curtains/blinds on windows facing the sun
--Set thermostats as high as is comfortable (do not put your health at risk)
--Keep outer doors closed as much as possible
--Keep AC filters clean
--Avoid using heat generating appliances (like dishwashers and ovens/stoves) during the heat of the day.
