Simply
put, a load controller is like a cruise control for your electric
system. You set the level of savings, you reap the
benefits.
How
does
a load controller work? A load controller constantly
measures the usage of power in your home and directs efficiently to a
pre-set priority which lowers your demand and thus your bill. As
the demand increases, the load controller "sheds" (shuts off), lower
priority appliances to maintain a user pre-set demand level.
Dropping your demand 4kw = a $48 reduction per month. It's easy
to calculate your savings based on these numbers (estimate based on a
1500 square foot, all electric home), larger homes have much larger
savings.

This
is
the Load Commander LS series. The digital read out offers information
including:
time of day, current demand limit set point, current home power useage
and
load status indicator lights. This system is easy to interface with, is
very reliable and resistant to lightning damage.
Easy to use! Saves on APS bills
Set the Load commander once for your
summer load and once for
your winter load...it's that easy.
This
unit belongs on every home
on the APS power grid in conjunction with
the
"Combined Advantage
rate. Why pay 14 cents per KWK on the
Time
Advantage Rate
when you can be spending 5 cents on the
Combined
Advantage Rate.

We carry all brands of load controllers but prefer to install the Load Commander LS series. This unit is fully compatible with all local electric rates, has built -in calenders and several timers. These timers tell the LS when off peak rates start, what day it is and the current time. You can set your water heater to run during off peak times using the LS timers as well. The internal timers and micro-processor are backed up with a lifetime lithium battery to retain program memory during power outages.

Marzella in Scottsdale has a four bedroom ranch with a
pool
and has saved $16,000 in twelve years on her APS bill! Although this
figure
is on the high end of most of our customers, you can expect at least
a 25% drop in your monthly bill with little or no change in lifestyle,
many
save as much as 40%.

"I purchased a home in Scottsdale over three years ago; 3500 Sq
ft with two 5-ton A/C units, two water heaters, pool, etc. A
beautiful home with an enormous electric bill. We are on the APS
best rate plan . We were paying 330/month on the average plan
(even with programmable thermostats) with the actual peak summer bill
exceeding $400.
Two
years ago you installed the Commander LS load controller. On the
averaging plan our monthly bill is now $154 and our highest single
monthly bill has been $225 over the the past two years. A savings
of $4200 in just two years. The Commander has been well worth the
investment. I just wanted to thank you and let everyone
know the savings are real."
