Save Electricity & Money with a Simple DIY Project: Sealing Ducts

Most homeowners probably only think about their heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems when they’re not working. But even if your HVAC system is providing cool air for your house in the middle of the Texas summer, chances are good that it’s not as efficient as it could be.

Around 20 percent of air moving through a duct system is lost because of leaks, holes or poorly connected ducts, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Losing air means that your system has to work overtime to keep your house at the desired temperature, which increases your electricity bills.

While a leaking duct isn’t good (there are several safety issues that accompany it), it does present an opportunity for you to save energy and money. Read more on Save Electricity & Money with a Simple DIY Project: Sealing Ducts…

Texas Power Community Spotlight: Keep Arlington Beautiful

keep-arlington-beautiful-color-logoThe city of Arlington has long been part of the Keep Texas Beautiful program, even if its causes haven’t always been front and center. But that’s all about to change.

In the fall of 2010 Arlington decided to revive the initiative, creating an internal board of city staffers and starting a search for citizens to sit on the board of the new nonprofit organization Keep Arlington Beautiful.

Gary Packan and Jennifer Chadwell in the parks and rec department worked through 2011 to get the city’s program back in good standing with Keep Texas Beautiful, making Keep Arlington Beautiful a gold-star affiliate, which is the highest rating for affiliates.

Then, on March 12, Arlington’s parks and recreation department officially approved the citizen-led board of Keep Arlington Beautiful (KAB) to kick off the revitalized initiative. Read more on Texas Power Community Spotlight: Keep Arlington Beautiful…

Texas Power continues to deliver price and reputation

Each week the Ft. Worth Star Telegram compiles the five lowest rates for the Oncor territory with their Public Utility Commission (P.U.C.) complaint rating. This weekly compilation offers consumers in the Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex a quick and high level view of current electric competition. For several straight weeks now Texas Power has been at or near the top with the best combination of price and lowest complaint rating. This is great news for consumers as switching to a reputable, low cost retail electric provider is one of the simplest and wisest economic decisions a consumer can make. The recent heat is more than likely a sample of what is yet to come this summer through not only DFW but through all of the ERCOT (Electric Reliability Council of Texas) territories. The folks here at Texas Power encourage you to review your bills and price per kWh (kilowatt hour) now rather than waiting to receive your next monthly electricity bill.
