#SafetyTip 🥶 - Never kick or hit your gas meter or its piping to break away built-up snow ❄️ or ice 🧊. Any impact to your gas meter could crack the pipes or connections, resulting in a gas leak. Exercise caution removing snow or ice from your natural gas vent or meter assembly.

On this day of recognition for the immeasurable impact Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. had on our great nation, we are making it “a day on, not a day off” by participating in the National Day of Service – volunteering and serving to improve our local communities. We all play an essential role in strengthening our communities and, ultimately, our nation. Through empathy and action, we can contribute to progress by respectfully sharing diverse perspectives and ideas. #MLKDay #NationalDayofService #FuelingEquity

🌨️❄️ With freezing temperatures expected this week, we’re here to help you prepare and stay safe during the polar vortex! Here are a few important tips: 🔹 Locate your gas meter and keep it clear of snow and debris. 🔹 Ensure outdoor vents are free from obstructions like snow or ice. 🔹 Never use natural gas appliances, like stoves or ovens, to heat your home. 🔹 Avoid running gas generators in enclosed areas like garages or basements.

#EnergyEfficiency Tip ➡️ By sealing gaps and cracks around doors and windows, #weatherstripping prevents drafts and minimizes warm air leakage, which can significantly reduce heating costs. This simple yet impactful measure helps maintain a consistent indoor temperature and lead to lower energy consumption. 🏠🌡️

#EnergyEfficiency Tip ➡️ Do you have windows facing the sun?☀️ Take advantage of the sun's power and open your blinds or curtains to let sunlight in and naturally heat your home. Using natural sunlight for additional warmth is a great way to practice energy efficiency, and the #savings on your energy bill is sure to brighten your day just as much as the sun.

Freezing temperatures are sweeping through our service areas and impacting our communities. We are committed to helping our customers stay #safe and warm during colder weather. Never use an oven or a gas stovetop to heat your home. Also, remember to ensure that all exterior vents and chimneys are free from obstructions such as leaves, ice, snow or debris. Blocked vents can cause dangerous build-ups of carbon monoxide inside your home. #SafetyFirst

Stay warm this winter while keeping control of your energy use. A gas fireplace is efficient, eco-friendly and perfect for cutting down on heating costs during these cold months. ❄️🔥

A natural gas range is perfect for making holiday goodies and treats 😋, but never use a gas range or oven to replicate the function of a space heater or a natural gas fireplace. 🔥 Doing so can cause carbon monoxide to build up. Also, keep flammable items and winter holiday décor that could interfere with airflow away from the range. Keep #safety top of mind this holiday season.

As we wrap up the year and celebrate the holidays, we’re feeling especially grateful for our employees who spent extra time this month to give back to our communities through our Energy to Give campaign. We held more than 50 volunteer events across four states, coinciding with $250,000 in grants to local nonprofits from the Southern Company Gas Foundation. From food drives to toy drives, it’s been an honor to spread a little extra cheer in the communities we serve. Wishing everyone a warm and wonderful holiday season! 🎄💙 #EnergyToGive #GivingBack

Making holiday treats and sweets to eat? 🧁 🍰 🍪 #EnergyEfficiencyTip ➡️ Proper timing can save you energy and cash in the kitchen. When preparing your favorite dishes and desserts, be sure they are ready to bake once the oven is done preheating. Minimizing the time your oven is heating will help save on energy and deliver the best tasting food.
