Extreme heat calls for more than just a fan. You need a plan.
Take frequent breaks in air conditioning or shade.
Drink plenty of cool, not ice-cold water.
Avoid sitting in parked cars, even in the shade.

WAFF Summer Energy Tip:
Cool yourself, not your whole house or apartment.
Sit under a fan. Drink water.
Put a cool towel on your neck or wrists.
Raise your thermostat 7°–10°F for eight hours.
It can save up to 10% on cooling costs.
