New site makes it easier for Minnesota customers to save time,
money and get their homes ready for winter MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 19
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CenterPoint Energy's Home Service Plus®
(HSP) launched a newly redesigned Web site today, HSPtoday.com,
featuring a new online appointment scheduling tool, expanded energy
efficiency information and new, promotional discounts. The online
scheduling tool provides customers the convenience of scheduling
their own furnace, a/c and appliance repair appointments at any
time, and because the tool accesses the same appointment
information used by HSP's phone center, customers can schedule
their appointments without ever placing a phone call. (Logo:

saving time, energy and money are important to our customers," said
Joe Vortherms, HSP director for CenterPoint Energy. "And with
winter fast approaching, we wanted to make it easier than ever for
customers to get ready by scheduling their furnace tune-ups, safety
inspections and appliance repairs with us." All Minnesota customers
who have a CenterPoint Energy natural gas or HSP account can now
schedule HSP repair and maintenance services at HSPtoday.com. In
addition to scheduling appointments, customers can review past
appointments, check on pending appointments, or cancel and
reschedule appointments. If a customer schedules an appliance
repair and they are due for a furnace tune-up, the site will
automatically offer to schedule both services at the same time.
