From a local heating company: just a reminder

"Friday, we all will experience temperatures and wind chills that our homes' heating systems are NOT designed for. Negative numbers!

Newer homes will struggle to maintain temperature, and older homes will NOT maintain temperature. The temperature WILL drop while the heating system is working at full capacity.

1. Please raise the temperature in your home 2 to 4 degrees above your normal setting.
2. Take all programmable thermostats out of setback mode and set on a permanent HOLD.
3. If you have a furnace; replace the filter.
4. Keep garage doors closed.
5. Limit opening exterior doors.
6. Make sure air vents and radiators are not blocked or obstructed.
7. If you have a 90%+ furnace and boiler, you must keep the intake and exhaust clear of ice and snow. During these cold temperatures, ice can build up. A 90%+ furnace and boiler have 2 white PVC pipes; an exhaust pipe, and an intake pipe that are generally on the side or back of your home.
8. Refrain from using pellet stoves or supplemental heat forms if you have a water-based heating system. The pipes WILL freeze.

If the temperature in your home is dropping and your radiators are HOT with boiler systems or you have HOT air coming out of your vents with furnaces, DO NOT PANIC. Please make sure that your heating system continues to operate.

If the temperatures drop in your home, it will not be able to recover until temperatures rise and the windchill diminishes. Our heating systems can not overcome temperatures -20 to -30. They are sized to operate at 0 degrees outdoor. Put your thermostat on hold at 70 degrees or higher.

To help minimize temperature loss, you can boil water, make soup or stews, or bake something - it helps introduce humidity and warmer temperatures into your home. Please check on neighbors and elderly residents during these extreme temperatures. Stay warm and safe this week.

The key is to NOT panic with falling temps inside your home if you have heat coming out of your registers. It is doing all it can. If it had feelings, it would be crying!

Stay safe and bring your pets inside!"

We know that you depend on us to provide service and maintenance for your home plumbing, heating, hot water, cooking, and more. We are committed to maintaining reliable service and delivery. Currently, we are providing full service and are scheduling all of our regular appointments. This includes for regular maintenance of your equipment and installation of new equipment. When we confirm appointments we will confirm that you are comfortable with one of our plumbers or service technicians entering your home, and will ask a few questions to confirm we can do so safely. This will include questions regarding the health status of those in your home and we will offer you the opportunity to know the health status of our employees.

Our service appointments are no contact and our service technicians will wear personal protective equipment. We ask that if possible, if the work is going to be performed in the basement, an exterior basement door, be left open and if possible you are not in the same room or area as our techs while the service is being performed. If it is necessary to speak with our techs, we ask that you remain at least six feet away from them and wear a mask.

Call us today at 978-927-5743 to schedule your Service Appointment.
