Energy Tip:

* Replacing just four 75-W incandescent light bulbs with four 23-W compact fluorescent equivalents will save almost $200 over life of the bulbs.

Safety Tip:

* Keep outlets near hot tubs, spas, and pools covered and dry between uses. Check out the new outlet covers that offer weather protection while a plug is inserted into the outlet.
