Two Fur One: Feed Hungry Pets While Preparing Your Furnace For Winter

During the month of September, Applewood Plumbing Heating & Electric is offering a $99 14-point furnace check with proceeds going to Colorado Pet Pantry, a longtime partner of Applewood.

“We are thrilled to continue our relationship with Colorado Pet Pantry, an organization who shares our love for pets,” said Josh Ward, Applewood Plumbing Heating & Electric owner, “This program helps pets but also emphasizes the importance of your family’s safety with a well-operating heating system.”

You can prepare for winter by replacing your furnace filter every other month, but a regular maintenance checkup can ensure your furnace is working efficiently. Additionally, upgrading your heating equipment can save upwards of 7.6 tons of carbon emissions each year, according to Energy.gov.

Applewood’s Furnace Checks for Charity provides the $99 rate, which the customer pays directly to Colorado Pet Pantry to support their initiatives. Colorado Pet Pantry has received nearly $30,000 and helped 1,880 families by providing food for more than 5,600 dogs and cats across Colorado. Colorado Pet Pantry is the largest nonprofit organization of its kind on a mission to feed hungry pets so families can strengthen their ability to enhance their pets’ quality life.

“Thanks to Applewood, Coloradans know that support for their pets is just a call or visit away,” said Eileen Lambert, executive director of Colorado Pet Pantry. 

Applewood recommends having a trained HVAC professional examine your furnace in the fall before temperatures drop.

Applewood has awesome to work with. We've had a few things needing a plumber (garbage disposal broke, dishwasher leaking, etc.). Applewood service was very nice and could always schedule for that day or the next. We've had two plumbers come and they were both so nice and super knowledgeable.

Don Nguyen did an excellent job on our service call. He was prompt, courteous, and went above and beyond to work with my schedule and situation. Not only did he complete the work efficiently and thoroughly, but he also took the time to explain everything clearly. I really appreciated his professionalism and helpful attitude. Highly recommend Dom and Applewood.

We've used Applewood for years and find them to be competent, professional and willing to discuss the problem and well as solutions. I would also recommend the Gold Star membership if you own a home as maintaining it and ensuring it's continued value requires paying attention to small details before they become big problems. The Gold Star program provides a level of discounts as well as excellent service and timely appointments.
