Vectren working with New Market to gauge interest in natural gas; representatives to offer information at town garage sale

Evansville, Ind. - In an effort to continue to gauge residents' interest in bringing natural gas service to local residents,, Vectren Energy Delivery (Vectren) will be at the New Market town garage sale on Saturday, Aug.
22 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to answer questions and collect names of interested residents. Pending residential and business customer interest, the utility hopes to install new pipelines and facilities and begin providing
natural gas service to the area by next winter or sooner. The utility has already moved forward and
completed the installation of gas infrastructure to serve Southmont High School this year and is targeting to serve the town of New Market in phase two of the project if enough interest is attained.
Natural gas is increasingly the fuel of choice for homes and businesses and provides superior comfort, reliability and energy efficiency. It continues to be the most affordable home heating solution - beating propane, heating oil and electric furnaces - and is also the cleanest-burning energy source. More information on the benefits of natural gas can be reviewed at www.vectren.com/naturalgas.
Vectren also offers a piping assistance program whereby qualifying residential and commercial customers converting to natural gas from another heating source can receive a $350 incentive. The incentive is intended to help cover the expenses associated with any costs the customer incurs to have a licensed contractor install indoor natural gas piping and/or retrofit existing appliances for natural gas use.
Interested customers should contact Vectren about natural gas service at their home or business by visiting www.vectren.com/gasservice or calling 1-800-227-1376 and pressing option 6. Vectren encourages potential customers to contact the company as soon as possible in order to gain an accurate count of interested parties.
