Recessed drain valve is out of the way of brooms and scrubbers.
Tough molded outer shell resists dents and scratches.
Bowl shaped bottom allows more complete sediment draining.

Functional

Lake Region Electric Load Management Program

Lake Region Electric actively promotes the use of load management to it's members. Receivers are installed by Lake Region Electric or a qualified electrician at our expense.

Control of the receivers is done by East River Electric Power Cooperative, in Madison, South Dakota. Load Management is implemented when electricity use in Eastern South Dakota reaches a predetermined point or "peak". Signals are sent over the power lines to the receivers, which then cycle the load.

In the case of water heaters, the "off time" can be as long as 4.5 hours, with an "on time" of approximately 1 hour. After the "peak" passes the receivers are again sent a signal which restores the water heater to normal operation.

All residential members of Lake Region Electric using an electric water heater are eligible to participate in the load management program. Participating in the program also entitles members to a credit of $4.00 per month on the member's electric bill.
