Marathon Water Heater Program

Southern Power District will continue to offer its popular Marathon Water Heater program in 2010, so if your current fossil fuel water heater is on its last legs, then this program is one for you to consider. The chart below outlines the fee structure of the program, including the FREE 85-gallon water heater, which includes a time clock which shuts off your water heater from 8-10 AM and 5-8 PM. For more information on the Marathon Water Heater Program, please contact Sam Reinke at 308-384-2350 or 1-800-652-2013.
