TGS has asked its customers to reduce natural gas usage inside their homes to help reduce the number of outages in the Austin area.
Gas customers can reduce usage by lowering temperatures on thermostats and water heaters, changing or cleaning the filter on furnaces, sealing windows with blankets or towels, and closing blinds and curtains to preserve energy, according to the Feb. 16 email from Texas Gas Service. Customers are also asked to hold off on using high-energy appliances such as dishwashers and laundry machines.
