Wednesday’s weather made us all realize that winter is finally coming to an end and that it’s time to start thinking about spring and not just about surviving the cold! As you can imagine, we at Crowley Fuel were quite busy with emergency service work these past few months. Repairs are now slowing down, and our hard-working staff are getting some much needed time off.
 
One situation that made this winter’s service scheduling more difficult was the fact that customers were calling to have their heating systems tuned up. We are always happy to provide whatever service our customers want or need when they want to have it done, but with such a cold and snowy winter, it was not always possible to perform this maintenance work. As you would expect, we respond first to customers who have no heat before we can respond to the requests by customers who have heat. It is only fair and reasonable to take care of someone in need first. I am sorry if this winter’s conditions caused us to miss scheduled maintenance appointments.
 
The last thing that most people want to think about in the weeks to come is heating system maintenance, but I would like you to consider having the annual maintenance done this spring. It is the best time for us, and in many cases, the best time for your heating system.
 
For us, spring sees a reduction of emergency service work and heating system installation. It’s the perfect time to keep our service technicians busy with important annual maintenance and tune-up work.
 
For systems such as furnaces that provide only heating (and not hot water), it is essential they be cleaned and serviced before they sit idle for a lengthy time. It is much easier to clean them when they are still warm and dry, because the condensation from summer humidity will cause the products of combustion to harden, making it more difficult to remove in the fall.
 
In order to encourage our customers to have their heating system serviced this spring, Crowley Fuel is offering a Spring Tune-Up Special of $160! This price includes up to two hours of labor, a nozzle, oil filter cartridge and, if necessary, a fiberglass air filter, oil pump strainer and oil burner coupling. Any other work and parts will be charged at current rates. This offer ends on June 30 when our labor rates are scheduled to increase.
