HUNTINGTON, WV (WOWK) — With electric heat costs fluctuating across the country, many have been looking for ways to combat them.

Some Tri-State Residents Say They Had to Go Completely Without electric the power to cut costs.

“My January electric bill was over $300, and the month of February, since I’ve been burning wood and everything, my electric bill has dropped to $116,” says West Virginia resident Billy Black.

Kentucky resident Corey Smith says he saved money by using both electric and gas.

And the manager of Kenny Queen Hardware in Huntington says he’s noticed customers looking for DIY products to use to cut costs.

“They get the window seals, the door seals, they get the plastic for the windows, the door sweeps – just to keep drafts out and keep it warmer inside,” says Billy Pierce, the manager of Kenny Queen Hardware.

If you don’t want to spend the money, there are other ways to reduce drafts in your home, such as placing blankets and towels around the base of your windows and doors.

There are also a few other options to help tri-state residents save money.

The West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources announced Monday that the deadline to apply for the Low Income Energy Assistance Program (LIEAP) has been extended to Friday, March 18, 2022.

West Virginians who meet the eligibility requirements can apply online at www.wvpath.org or at local DHHR offices, community action agencies, or senior centers operated by a regional agency on the aging.
