Kenwood Park Emergency HVAC Questions

How long can a house go without heat in winter?

It depends on outdoor temperature, insulation and wind. Once the house approaches freezing, pipes are at risk, so do not wait.

Should I turn off the water if the heat stays off?

If the house is dropping toward freezing and you know where the main shutoff is, shutting it off and draining lines can prevent burst pipes. Ask the technician when you call.
