Reducing unnecessary trips to customer locations saves time, costs and fuel. That's why we've implemented sophisticated customer self-installation, self-diagnostic and online troubleshooting tools, which help to reduce the number of service visits required by our technicians.

Also, in 2017, we added 234 hybrid vans to our fleet in New York to further improve our fuel efficiency in the future.
