Switch to Smart Cycle

You may be eligible to receive a smart thermostat and a monthly summer credit on your electric bill

Open to all of our current Summer Cycler customers, Smart Cycle uses new Wi-Fi thermostat technology replacing our traditional cycling switches. Over the next several years, the Summer Cycler program will transition to the Smart Cycle program, and you are invited to make the switch.

When you transition to the Smart Cycle program, we will provide you with a professionally installed smart thermostat at no cost for your home. During the 2025 months of March through November, you will receive an increased bill credit in the amount of $7.50 per month for participating in Smart Cycle events. These cycling events allow us to pre-cool your home and cycle your air conditioning unit to manage energy levels on peak usage days.
