The power is in the people

Cedarburg Light & Water may provide the energy that keeps our community running, but it’s our neighbors who really have the power. The power to use community dollars for the common good. To invest in local priorities like a stronger economy, greener alternatives and programs that help customers lower their utility bills. And the power to put our community first.

With public power, the good we do stays right here. Because we’re here...for you.

Five tips to keep you warm this winter

It’s cold outside, but these energy-saving tips will keep you feeling warm and cozy:

• Close storm windows. Make sure storm windows are closed completely so no air leaks in or out.
• Weatherize doors and windows. A few tubes of caulk and rolls of weather-stripping can help reduce heating bills and increase comfort.
• Maintain your heating system. Schedule yearly maintenance with a qualified contractor and replace furnace filters according to manufacturer’s instructions.
• Set your furnace fan to “auto.” Setting the fan switch on your thermostat to “on” will cause it to run all the time, whether or not your home needs heating.
