Winter weather can be both a blessing and a curse for HVAC contractors. While some warmer areas of the country are relatively unaffected by cooling temperatures, most regions prepare for snowfall and an increased demand in service calls. The slow months become a relic of time gone by, and business hits a fever pitch, but it is important to note that no two winter seasons are the same.
Last year’s winter months brought forth an uptick in fuel costs but also surprised most by being significantly warmer than usual. The 2017-2018 winter season looks to continue the first trend while subverting the second.
