⚡It's time for 6 O'clock Safety with Matt the Safety Guy! ⚡

Digging into a summer project? 🏡 Before you grab the shovel, take a few minutes to think about what might be underground.

Utility lines can be hidden just below the surface, and one quick call to 811 can help keep your family, neighbors, and community safe while preventing unexpected outages. At SSVEC, we believe a little preparation goes a long way when it comes to safety. 🦺

On Monday, June 15, 2026:

Poles and lines will be photographed. There will be no video/audio recording. Pilots and observers will be clearly identified, driving Firmatek vehicles, and carrying company identification.

🏠 Small air leaks can lead to big energy waste! Sealing cracks and gaps around windows, doors, and other openings can help keep hot air out in the summer and warm air in during cooler months—saving energy and money year-round.

Caulking and weather stripping are simple, low-cost fixes that can make a noticeable difference in your home’s comfort and efficiency. Start with the largest gaps first, and you’ll be on your way to a more energy-smart home! 💚
