Sept. 9, 2005: Second Annual ‘Heat The Country' Effort Set For October
ARLINGTON, Va. - The Air Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA) has declared October national "Heat the Country" month as ACCA and many of the organization's state and local chapters fan out to help the elderly, disabled, and low-income families by checking and servicing their heating systems.
During Heat the Country, contractors donate time and materials to repair or replace heating systems in their local communities. The chapters work with public and private social service organizations to identify families who need help.
