📣#NewMonthNewFilter reminder!
🎃The only thing scary about October should be spooky season — not your HVAC filter!
A new month is almost here, so check your filter and replace it if it’s dirty. A clean filter helps your system run efficiently and keeps energy use in check.
Two years ago, Hurricane Helene reached our mountain communities.
This week, our team gathered for a quiet moment of reflection, remembering the difficult journey, but most importantly, the generosity of our community and the crews who came to our aid.
We remain grateful 💙
It's Dolly Day!
Today we join the Town of Boone and the state of North Carolina in celebrating an Appalachian icon whose impact made all of our lives a little brighter 💛
Shine on, High Country!
#DollyPartonDay #CommunityPowered
#Preparedness happens behind the scenes, too
Year-round, our team trains, reviews & works with community partners to prepare for weather events, emergencies & more.
Preparedness is not just the response — it's the training and teamwork that happen along the way.
