🧛 Beware of energy vampires lurking in your home! ⚡ 🎃 👻 Banish phantom energy by unplugging unused devices or connecting electronics to smart power strips that make switching them off easy. Don’t let energy vampires take a bite out of your efficiency this Halloween!

The decorations may be spooky. Your electrical setup shouldn’t be. Before you light up your home this Halloween, take a few minutes to check your setup. Because sometimes, the scariest electrical hazards are the ones hiding in the shadows. 👻

Have a tailgate before our home team’s game! Not only is it a great way to connect with friends and neighbors, but it’s also a great way to save energy by keeping the heat out of the kitchen. 🏈
