peaksaver®

Join 15,000 of your neighbours and help reduce your impact on the environment.  You'll be saving up to 10% in energy and receive:

• a free programmable thermostat, professionally installed in your home or business, at no cost to you (a $350 value),
• a personal demo from the installer that will help you program your new thermostat to match your daily schedule and provide you with a Quick Reference Guide on its operation,
• the ability to access your thermostat remotely anytime online, and
• $25 from Hydro Ottawa just for participating!

How does it work?

On the hottest weekday afternoons during the summer, when the use of air conditioners is greatest, Hydro Ottawa may signal to your thermostat to cycle your air conditioner to alternately run for 15 minutes and pause for 15 minutes over the course of the peaksaver event - weekends and holidays are excluded. The duration of the peaksaver event is typically 4 hours. Your fan will continue to run so you may not notice that an event is taking place.
