What? Worry About Residential Heating in North Texas?
|

|
| The ice storm that covered North Texas with a crystal shell in February 2007 re¬minded folks here why they have heaters! |
You bet. We’re better known for our sweltering summers, but it does get cold here, too.
Dallas Cowboy fans still talk about the Thanksgiving Day game against the Miami Dolphins in 1993 played on a snow-covered Texas Stadium field.
True enough, snow is rare here, but cold weather isn’t. The winter months bring many chilly nights when temperatures drop into the 20s and 30s. Even transplanted Northerners agree: that’s cold.
We can’t protect you from their stories about what “real” winter is like, but we can make sure your furnace keeps you warm when it’s really cold outside.
What Makes My Heating Bills Go Up?
These days, you need to get the most efficiency from your heater just to hold your own against rising utility costs. Market conditions are affected by many factors, including natural disasters.

Colleyville and Flower Mound saw their heating bills increase accordingly, even as they set their thermostats lower.
We can help you ward off the winter blasts with a Heater Tune Up. We’ll give your heater a complete going over and fine-tune it. We can’t guarantee lower gas bills, but we do guarantee a 30% reduction in energy consumption, or the $99 tune up is free!
