1 Important Alert(s)

Storm Alert

11:00 p.m. Update: Our crews have restored power to more than 44,000 of the 53,500 customers affected by a windstorm packing gusts exceeding 70 mph in some locations. The latest weather forecasts project another round of strong wind that will continue through Tuesday afternoon, with the potential for measurable snowfall that could cause some customers who were previously restored to lose power again. Use extreme caution near downed power lines and wires; always assume that they are carrying live electricity. 

Insulation and Air Sealing

To save up to 20 percent on heating and cooling costs, make sure all ceilings, roofs, exterior walls, and wall cavities are adequately insulated. Common air leakage points to check and seal:

  • Around plumbing, electrical, and duct work in exterior walls.
  • Any chases open to spaces like an attic.
  • Gaps between interior and exterior walls and ceiling sheetrock.
  • Around sheetrock, including between interior and exterior walls and where sheetrock is sealed to the subfloor.
  • Openings around windows.
  • Floors, including cantilevered floors and band joist areas in floor systems.
  • Kneewalls in Cape-style homes.
  • Joints between existing buildings and additions or modular buildings.
  • Adding a reflective roof coating can also help improve energy efficiency.
