One drop per second can add up to 165 gallons per month—that’s more than one person uses in two weeks! Small changes like this help you save money and the environment.

Almost 617,000 kWh of energy was saved in 2022. The 7,659 Michigan customers and their families who installed the energy-saving items in the kit helped reducing emissions equal to taking 97 gas-powered cars off the road for a year! *

Electric water heaters have an electrical supply cord. It looks like a thick extension cord and is generally black or gray and near the top of the water heater.

Gas / Propane water heaters have a vent pipe on top of the water heater. It is usually a 3- or 4-inch PVC pipe that allows the exhaust created by the gas to be vented outside. Gas water heaters also have a ½-inch-thick black gas pipe going into the bottom of the tank.

Power strips are often used to expand existing electrical outlets in a home. However, commonly plugged-in devices such as TVs, computers, media players and printers continue to use power when in standby mode on a traditional power strip. Often known as “phantom power” or “vampire power,” this electricity drain adds about 10% to your energy bill. Reducing or eliminating its presence can mean serious energy savings.

The Advanced Power Strip makes it easy to eliminate phantom and standby power losses without ever unplugging the equipment. The Advanced Power Strip intelligently cuts off power to connected devices when they’re not in use. If you need help setting up the Advanced Power Strip, view the video tutorial or see the instructions.
