Energy Conservation Tips

Soaring fuel costs have become an unfortunate reality for our nation. We feel the effects at the gas pump, grocery store and in almost every other aspect of our daily lives. The Andalusia Utilities Board is also affected by rising fuel costs, especially the cost of natural gas used for electricity generation. We share your concerns about high fuel prices and encourage everyone to help reduce energy bills by implementing these simple energy conservation methods.

Planned Outages

The Andalusia Utilities Board works to provide the most reliable services for our customers by making improvements and repairs to our electrical, water and sewer systems. Occasionally, these improvements or repairs will require that your electric or water service be temporarily disconnected. In planning these outages, we work with the local newspaper, television, and radio to alert you of any planned outages. We appreciate your patience during these times as improvements to the electrical and water systems mean more quality service for you, our customer.
