QUESTION: Does Vectren offer a rebate toward the purchase of a new natural gas water heater?

Our answer: Yes. We provide a $50 to $150 rebate toward the purchase of new water heater. The rebate amount depends on the appliance’s efficiency level and whether it’s a storage or tankless unit. Learn more about our rebate programs.


QUESTION: In which direction should my ceiling fan be turning in the winter to circulate warm air?

Our answer: During the winter, the blades should be circulating in the clockwise direction. Remember – ceiling fans cool people, not rooms. If no one is in the room, you should turn it off to save energy. Find more energy tips for the winter.
