<strong>Residential</strong><br />
<strong>Dual</strong> <strong>Energy</strong>,<br />
a Worthwhile<br />
Choice<br />
The Customer Guide is designed to help you,<br />
as a user of a dual-energy system, achieve the best<br />
efficiency, savings and satisfaction from it. This<br />
guide will help you understand and use your system<br />
better. It describes the heating-system components,<br />
the electromechanical and electronic dual-register<br />
meters, the indicator light and the other equipment<br />
installed in your home.<br />
Your dual-energy system heats your home with<br />
fossil fuel, such as oil, during the periods when<br />
electricity demand is very high. These peak periods<br />
generally occur during the coldest winter weather.<br />
<strong>Dual</strong>-energy heating therefore plays an important<br />
role in the wise use of electricity.<br />
