Does your HVAC work as hard as you? Is your HVAC system just not performing at its best? Fear not. With the HVAC Tune-up from Delmarva Power, you can get your system back in shape—and maybe prevent a major breakdown in the process. As a Maryland customer, you can receive this service at no additional cost. So schedule your tune-up today and we’ll have your system performing at its full potential.
Surprisingly, this may not be your household’s biggest energy waster. Your old refrigerator can be the top energy sponge in your home. And, unlike a family member, we can help you with this problem. We can recycle your old, working fridge or freezer and offer you $50 in return. Yep, you get rid of your biggest energy guzzler and get paid to do it. Any other home energy consumers will need to be dealt with on your own.
Master the art of doing nothing at all. Imagine saving while someone else does all the work. That’s our Energy Wise Rewards™ program. When you enroll, you can have your thermostat automatically adjusted during peak demand to help ease the burden on our grid, save energy and earn bill credits—and you don’t even need to leave the couch.
Find help with your energy bill today. When it comes to your energy bill, Delmarva Power can help. From budget billing plans, projected monthly bills to energy efficiency tips, we can help prevent surprises on your bill and create a plan that works for your budget.
Count on flexible payment options… and breathing a little easier. We offer a variety of tools and programs to help you manage your energy bill and find financial assistance. In 2024, Delmarva Power helped more than 23,000 customers secure nearly $23 million in energy assistance.
Helping you save before you save. At the Marketplace, you can enjoy instant discounts on items that will save you energy and money.
