| Energy Leveling Ideas for Summer |
 |
- Use major appliances early in the morning and late at night on very hot days. The best times vary, but generally before 8 a.m. and after 8 p.m. whenever possible.
- Spare your elecric range and oven by cooking meals in a toaster oven, slow cooker, or other energy-saving appliance. If you must use your oven, cook several dishes at once and turn it off a few minutes before the food is cooked.
- Dry your laundry on an indoor or outdoor clothesline instead of in your dryer.
- Use house and window fans and a dehumidifier to keep cool and comfortable on warm days, without air conditioners.
- When you must use air conditioning during a heat wave, set the thermostat no lower than 80 degrees F.
