GRIFFITH PARK ROAD CLOSURE ADVISORY

On June 14th, the gates on Griffith Park Drive at Travel Town and the gate near Mt. Hollywood Drive will be closed and locked, (exempt vehicles ok). 

RAP is exploring if road closure could eliminate cut through freeway traffic, excessive speeding and make the road safer for passive recreation. Again, this is a pilot program. Any unforeseen impacts on park operations will be addressed immediately. 

You are welcome and encouraged to provide your own feedback as this unfolds.

FREE LADWP AC Optimization Program

The AC Optimization Program provides a no-cost central air conditioner tune-up and energy saving rebate opportunities to LADWP Customers.  Find out more and sign up here.

LADWP wants to help qualifying Residential and Commercial customers stay comfortable and use energy more efficiently.  Cooling represents the largest summertime energy cost for most homeowners and businesses.  An efficient, well maintained AC system uses less energy, keeps you more comfortable, and extends the life of your system.

Taking energy efficiency to the next level, LADWP also offers rebates to help customers replace their old, inefficient AC units with new ENERGY STAR Rated High Efficiency AC systems.

How will a tune-up make your AC more efficient?

A participating certified HVAC technician performs a CheckMe! diagnostic evaluation of your system, to determine how well the system is working, and what changes are needed to get your AC back in tip-top shape.  The tune-up service includes:

  • Outdoor Coil Cleaning
  • Replacement or Cleaning of Standard Air Filter
  • Initial CheckMe! Diagnostic test
  • Indoor Airflow Adjustment if needed
  • Refrigerant Level Adjustment if needed*

A follow-up diagnostic is run to confirm your AC system is running efficiently and ready to keep you cool during the warm LA summer.  The diagnostic result will also show if your existing system qualifies for the LADWP Early Replacement with ENERGY STAR rebate - see below for details.


Please note: The outdoor ambient air temperature must be 55 degrees or higher for program services to be provided. Your appointment may need to be rescheduled to a warmer day.

Program services are limited to AC systems that have R-22 or R-410a refrigerant. Systems with other refrigerant types are not eligible for program services.

 

WATERING RESTRICTIONS IN EFFECT JUNE 1ST

Over 80% of the LADWP’s water is imported. In response to diminishing supplies due to environmental issues in the Sacramento–San Joaquin River Delta and local droughts, the City of Los Angeles has adopted several water conserving ordinances effective June 1st:

Based on the last number of your street address, your watering days are as follows:

ODD: Mondays and Fridays
EVEN: Thursdays and Sundays

Water use restrictions include but are not limited to:
 

  • Watering with sprinklers is limited to one cycle of up to 8 minutes per station per watering day for non-conserving nozzle sprinkler systems (typical residential system), or two 15-minute cycles per watering day for conserving nozzle sprinkler systems.
  • ALL outdoor watering is prohibited from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
  • No runoff onto streets, driveways, and gutters.
  • No watering of any hard surfaces such as sidewalks, walkways, driveways, or parking areas.
  • Hand watering with a self-closing shut-off nozzle on the hose is permitted any day of the week before 9:00 a.m. or after 4:00 p.m.
  • All leaks must be repaired in a timely manner.
  • No washing vehicles without using a hose with a self-closing water shut-off nozzle;
  • Strongly recommend washing of vehicles at commercial car wash facilities (most have water recycling system in place) .
  • Strongly recommend use of pool covers to decrease evaporation.
