With Pacific Power's free energy-

hat's not all Teresa DeLorenzo, owner and
T
manager of the Timbercrest Apartments in
Northeast Portland, has to say about the free
energy-efficient products and services her
property recently received.
"I believe it makes a difference when it
comes to renting out available apartment units.
A standard question I hear from potential
renters is 'how much can I expect my utility
bill to be?'"
Teresa and other owner/managers of apart­
ments can't say enough about Pacific Power's
multi-family energy efficiency project. "At
Timbercrest, we received bathroom and kitchen
faucet aerators, energy-efficient showerheads,
extra insulation, compact fluorescent light
bulbs and water heater wrap."
Qualifying properties can also receive high-
efficiency thermostats and water heater and
pipe insulation. All FREE, including installation.
Interested? Call EBCON, our local energy
efficiency contractor, at 1-800-253-6225.
Don't delay, it's a limited time offer and time
is running out fast.
