About the Water Heater Management Program
This innovative program also helps control power costs for all members by reducing the amount REA must pay for purchased power. And best of all it could help reduce your family's energy expenses by giving you a new Marathon™ high efficiency electric water heater FREE if qualified!!!

By reducing the peak demand for electricity, it saves everyone money and preserves our natural resources by:

♦ Reducing the need to build additional generating stations and transmission lines

♦ Requiring less fossil fuels to meet peak demands

♦ Ensuring that everyone has enough power when needed

♦ Eliminating the need for REA to purchase expensive peak electricity, thus lowering your monthly electric bills
