This week’s show – Furnace and Air Conditioning issues

Thursday, April 19th, 2012

Do you have the heat on, or do you need your air conditioning? What a crazy spring this has been in N. W. Ohio. The warmest March on record led many to think that summer had arrived months ahead of schedule.

But recently the spring has become fairly typical. So in a timely effort to address all the considerations this Saturday on A Firm Foundation Radio show, Chris Downey, from Tin Man Heating and Cooling will step into the guest chair to help us all with furnace and air conditioning issues, have you changed your filter recently? Have you gotten in your crawl space this year?

All these questions will be answered this Saturday beginning at 9:00 am. on AM1470 WLQR, or for your convenience podcast after 11:00 am. at www.1065theticket.com. Look for the yellow podcast cube!
