91探花

The upcoming Winter Break and Winter Break Closure provide an excellent opportunity for 91探花 to save energy, reduce environmental impacts and minimize costs.

Facilities Management and Safety asks for your help before you leave for the holidays: 

• Turn off and unplug all electrical items, including holiday decorations, fans, coffee pots, TVs, chargers, computers, monitors and printers*
• Turn off window air-conditioning units
• Close and lock all windows
• Clean out and unplug small refrigerators; place old newspaper or a towel under the fridge if water leakage is likely, and prop the door open  
• Adjust thermostat to a lower temperature, but no lower than 50 degrees Fahrenheit
• Turn off lights
• Close blinds and tilt slats upwards
• Take home plants or other items that cannot tolerate fluctuating temperatures.  Please be advised that temperatures in 91探花 buildings may be as low as 55掳F or as high as 85掳F during the Winter Break due to building temperature setbacks. 

Energy conservation is important to 91探花 and is incorporated into the design of new buildings, major renovation projects, transportation programs and other campus operations. Conservation measures occur in existing buildings during closures, including escalator shutdown in Baker University Center and building temperature setbacks. If you have questions about energy conservation at the University, please contact Facilities Management and Safety at 740-593-2911.

Thank you for contributing to OHIO鈥檚 energy conservation over the Winter Break.
