During a blizzard, wind matters a lot.

When winds exceed about 35 mph, our crews cannot safely use bucket trucks to make overhead repairs. That means restoration work may pause until conditions improve — even if crews are already staged nearby.

Safety always comes first so crews can restore power as quickly as possible once weather allows. Learn more about how storm restoration works: http://spr.ly/6188hmjvM

Snow day checklist:
☑️ Clear driveway
☑️ Shovel walkway
☑️ Dig out around your home generator

Heavy snow can block vents and airflow around your automatic generator. This can affect its operation .
Please make sure it’s cleared out so it can run safely and reliably during a power outage. ⚡️❄️ 🏠

🚨❄️ WINTER SAFETY WARNING ❄️🚨

Heavy snow might look pretty… but it can be dangerous if it’s blocking your home’s exterior vents.

If snow covers your furnace, dryer, or exhaust vents, it can cause:
⚠️ Carbon monoxide buildup
⚠️ Poor furnace performance
⚠️ System shutdowns
⚠️ Fire hazards

After every big snowfall (especially with drifting snow), take a few minutes to:
✔️ Check all exterior vents
✔️ Clear snow at least 1–2 feet around them
✔️ Make sure air can flow freely

This is especially important for newer high-efficiency furnaces that vent out the side of the house.
Make sure your carbon monoxide detectors are in working order , fresh batteries if not hard wired. Also, make sure not to run generators in enclosed garages should you lose power .
Stay warm — but more importantly, stay safe. ❤️🏠

Automatic home generators are wonderful to have all year . Automatic home generators automatically switch on when your power goes out, even when you are not home. This could save you hundreds and perhaps thousands of dollars in loss and or damages to your home or business. Having a generator could save the food in your freezers and refrigerators , it would allow your sump pumps to still run during storms preventing water damages, it would keep your furnace going in winter so pipes don’t freeze and so much more .
