Here are some helpful tips
for staying warm in cold weather:
Avoiding hypothermia and frost bite per Dr. David Rosenbaum, cardiologist at
-Layer up: keeping your core warm is key.
-Cover up: wear gloves, socks and warm boots. Avoid loss of heat by keeping a hat on.
-Know when to seek shelter: shivering is the first sign of a dangerous drop in core temperature. Also, if your face, hands or feet are difficult to move, get inside as quickly as possible.
-Stay hydrated: drink coffee, hot cocoa or just water, but keep the fluids flowing.
Keeping pets safe and healthy per Wes Metzler, Humane Society of the
-Potty only: small dogs should not be outside for more than 5 to 10 minutes in these extremely low temperatures. Putting a sweater or jacket on them is ideal.
-Shelter from the storm: larger dogs with cold weather coats still need an insulated place to get out of the wind and cold, as they are still susceptible to hypothermia. They also need access to unfrozen water and need extra food on cold days.
Minimizing damage to your vehicle per Donald Pellien, owner of Black Forest Service Center, Inc.
-Got a garage? (we do have a few available! They are $65 per month): use it, if possible.
-Warm it up: give your car a few minutes between starting and drive.
-Pop your blades: when you park, lift the windshield wipers so you don't return to blade frozen to the windshield.
Preventing frozen pipes per David Elliott, safety manager at Olson Plumbing and Heating
VERY IMPORTANT
-Keep it up: set thermostat no lower than 60 degrees.
Working with Radiant Heat
A few tips to help keep your home as warm as possible:
-Set your thermostat to at least 60 degrees.
-LEAVE your thermostat ON, even when it’s a bit warmer outside. You can turn the thermostat down slightly, but not below 60°. This will keep water running through the heaters and make it easier to heat your home at night when it’s colder outside.
-Radiant heat works best when there is nothing “blocking” the heat from getting out of the baseboard vents. If you have any large furniture or items in front of the baseboard vents, the heat will warm those pieces before it can warm your home. Move any large items away from the baseboard vents slightly and that will help the heat circulate better and faster.
-Even though your thermostat might be set at 70° or 75°, the heat might not reach that hot. Continue to leave the thermostat set to that temperature, but the actual temperature might fluctuate by five to seven degrees.
-Call us ANYTIME, 24-hours a day if you do not have heat. Our main line (719-597-0403 option 0) is available after hours and will connect you with the on-call maintenance staff for immediate assistance.
