2 Financial Assistance Save up to 35% Save up to 35% on monthly SDG&E bills with the California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) program. Eligibility is based on current household income and the number of people living in the home. You may automatically qualify if you participate in certain public assistance programs. Apply online at sdge.com/care or call us for more information. Lower energy costs for those with medical needs If someone in your household has a medical condition or equipment that impacts your SDG&E bill, contact us. We may be able to help lower your energy costs. Average savings are about $30 per month. Household income is not a factor for qualifying. Examples of medical conditions are: Paraplegia Hemiplegia Quadriplegia Multiple sclerosis Scleroderma Compromised immune system or life-threatening illness Any other condition where additional heating and air conditioning is medically necessary to sustain the person s life Contact SDG&E for a Medical Baseline application or download one at sdge.com/medicalbaseline.

Payment Options Online SDG&E s online bill pay service My Account is convenient, easy, secure and free. This payment option allows you to: Choose the day and amount you d like to pay. Set up recurring payments. Establish a payment arrangement schedule if you can t pay your bill in full. Once you sign up, you ll receive a monthly message. This will let you know that your bill is ready to be viewed and paid online. Level Pay Plan If you d like to have more predictable energy bills each month, our Level Pay Plan (LPP) can help. This plan helps smooth out the ups and downs of your monthly SDG&E bill. These highs and lows are caused by the weather and how you use your appliances. LPP will average your annual energy use and costs during a 12-month period. You pay an average bill amount each month instead of actual charges. Call us for an application or apply online at sdge.com/levelpay. 3

6 Natural Gas Safety and Health Marking appliances for the blind If you or someone you know has impaired vision, contact us. SDG&E can send a service technician to the home to mark the oven control dial for easier use. Signs of a gas leak For your protection, SDG&E adds a distinctive odor to natural gas so leaks can be more easily detected. This will help you know when you have a leak. If you smell a natural gas odor, call SDG&E at Use a neighbor s phone, a cell phone from outside your home or a pay phone. Do not light a match, candle or cigarette. Do not turn any electrical devices on or off, not even lights, and do not use any phones in the home. Remain in the area, but outside the home. Then let an SDG&E technician inside to locate and fix the leak. Carbon monoxide To safely and efficiently operate your gas appliances, have a licensed heating or plumbing contractor or SDG&E safety-check them every year. Routine annual maintenance on your gas appliances will help avoid dangerous exposure to carbon monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas. Exposure to carbon monoxide can lead to carbon monoxide poisoning. The early stages of this condition produce flu-like symptoms, such as headaches, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, shortness of breath and mental confusion. Prolonged exposure can even lead to death by asphyxiation. If you suspect the presence of carbon monoxide: Immediately turn off and stop using the suspected gas appliance. Seek medical attention if you or a family member is experiencing possible carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms. 6
7 Contact a licensed heating or plumbing contractor or SDG&E immediately to have the appliance inspected. Do not use the suspected gas appliance until it s been inspected, serviced and determined to be safe. Gas appliance safety Never use your gas oven, range or outdoor barbeque to heat your home. Keep grease away from gas range burners. Never use water on a grease fire. Smother it with a fire extinguisher or baking soda. Never store or use flammable products such as gasoline, paint thinner or cleaning products in the same room or near any gasor heat-producing appliance. Know where the shutoff valves are on gas appliances and locate the main valve near your meter. Additional Resources There are a variety of programs and services provided by community agencies to help meet your needs in the areas of: Crisis hotlines Domestic violence Shelter/housing Food/clothing Physical/mental health Older adults & the disabled Parenting Call for free confidential referrals to community programs and services.
