There are many easy ways you can celebrate Earth Day by saving energy in your home. One helpful activity is to check air filters to make sure your heating and cooling system is running as efficiently as possible. Nearly half the energy used in your home is due to heating and cooling, according to ENERGY STAR®1, so swapping out an old air filter to make your system run more efficiently can make a real difference.
Here are more Earth Day activity highlights:
- You can get discounts on things like smart thermostats on our online marketplace, as well as rebates on large appliances when they need to be replaced.
- You’ve helped us recycle nearly 44,000 refrigerators since 2017, saving energy, lowering electric bills and reducing greenhouse gases. You can schedule an appointment or attend a drop-off event here.
- You can tour a virtual house and find energy-saving tips for every room at savewithppl.com.

To encourage saving energy, demonstrate the the amount (percentage) of your monthly ppl bill is charged for heating and cooling, that is average for residential consumption.
My recent PPL monthly bill is $664. I telephoned PPL asking “why?” Your patient customer service lady gave me several possible reasons to check. Thank you for politely listening to me. I am glad I did not rant in an embarrassing tirade. Turns out I accidently switched on “Emer Ht” on my electric furnace thermostat when changing, I thought, only the temperature setting. I am still shopping for a cheaper electricity supplier, but the immediate problem is corrected. Thank you. Thank you for not having heavily foreign accented customer service telephone people whom I have MUCH trouble trying to understand. NO bigotry; I just canNOT understand thru their accent. I can understand Kansasian very well.
Why is there no rebates for stoves? Also 50$ for a fridge is a joke.
