Starting today, temperatures are expected to rise throughout the area.
With the higher temperatures, First Energy is reminding customers of ways to use less energy, while still staying comfortable.
They encourage everyone to check their air filters, which keeps air conditioning units running smoothly.
Other tips include:
- Using blinds, drapes, and window covers to prevent direct sunlight.
- Minimize heat in the home by cooking outdoors.
- Set fans counterclockwise to create a downdraft that pushes cool air down.
- Close up unused rooms.
