​Are you ready for a power outage? A lengthy power outage is a risk for the Village of Thode. Here are some tips on how to be prepared for a power outage.
​
Preparing Your Home for Unplanned Outages
  1. Take steps to ensure that you are prepared for unplanned outages (e.g. use surge protectors, winterize your home)
  2. Prepare an Outage Kit
  3. Be prepared for cold weather
  4. If you use home medical devices, such as dialysis machines or neonatal monitors, register with SaskPower to be notified of planned outages. Call 1-888-757-6937 to register for planned outage notifications.

Outage Kit

Creating a kit that is handy and accessible, even in the dark, will help you stay safe during unplanned outages. Write 310-2220 (outage reporting number) on the outside of the kit and include the following items:
  • Water — at least one gallon for each member of your household, per day.
  • Food — non-perishable, easy to prepare items. Include a manual can opener (or a multi-purpose tool).
  • Flashlights — include extra batteries and make sure the flashlight is functional. Candles can be included but must only be used by adults and never by children. Keep candles away from flammable material (such as curtains).
  • First-Aid Kit — include essential medications and required medical items. If you have medication that needs to be refrigerated, consult with your pharmacist for guidance on proper storage during an extended outage.
  • A battery-powered or hand-crank clock and radio.
  • Blankets and warm clothing.
