When freezing temperatures hit, it is important to have a well maintained heating system.  That is one reason why it is so important to have annual furnace inspection.  Though it is already January, it is not too late…winter may still be another couple of months!  If your furnace does break in the midst of a deep freeze, please be aware that FLAME will be there to assist you as soon as possible.  For more information, contact FLAME!
