Fraud Alert for EMC Security
Members beware! It has been reported that several houses have been approached by someone pretending to be an EMC Security representative offering to upgrade the customer's system only to swindle the customer into signing a five year contract with a higher monthly rate with a completely different alarm company. These salesmen travel door-to-door coming to Georgia every year to take advantage of customers.
Be sure to contact EMC Security if you are approached by these scammers. Please know that EMC Security will never send anyone to a customer's home without their knowledge. EMC Security believes a reputable security company should take all possible precautions to help protect customers. If you have any questions or if you have been approached by a scammer, please contact EMC Security at 770-963-0305.

Looking for an upgrade?
You have put off the home
improvements for as long as you can and you know it's time. The air conditioning unit is on its last leg and the windows are letting in more hot air than cool air coming from your vents, causing your energy bill to soar. Sound familiar?
Why wait until your house is full of company during a summer cookout before it all hits the fan! Be proactive and take advantage of the HomePlus loan, brought to you by GreyStone Power and GEMC Federal Credit Union (GEMC FCU). For a limited time, financing is available for energy efficient improvements to your existing home beginning at just 2.90% APR*!
With special low rates, just for GreyStone members, you can knock out many eligible home improvements, such as improvements to central heat pump and air conditioners, heat pump water heaters and solar water heater heating systems with electric backup. Perhaps adding insulation or replacing a window is on your list. These items must be ENERGY STAR-rated for energy savings in order to be eligible. Improvements may also be made to ductwork and other weatherization products.
Becoming a member to GEMC FCU is easy! Join now to receive a free gift and a waiver of the $10 membership fee when you show your Co-op Connections Card! If you don't have a card, call 770-370-2383. For more information about how the HomePlus loan can help you, call GEMC FCU at 770-949-3557.
 *Apr: Annual Percentage Rate. The 2.90% APR option is limited to GreyStone Power members only and will continue until available buy-down funds are depleted. GEMC FCU is federally insured by NCUA and is an Equal Housing Lender.

Energy efficiency tip of the month
Your swimming pool doesn't have to be a drain on your electric bill. Simply covering it will go a long way to reducing evaporation, which will cut back on refilling and reheating. Also consider investing in a high-efficiency or multi-speed pool pump when it's time for a replacement. They cost more but save a lot more energy than older models. Visit EnergySavers.gov for more info.
