March is an unusual month when it comes to heating and cooling a home, especially in a place like Northern California, where temperatures often swing back and forth between warm days and cold rainy days. This is probably the ideal time of the year to think about making changes to your HVAC system, such as putting in a new air conditioner or heater. It’s also the time to arrange for the annual maintenance service that will see that your air conditioning system is prepared for the coming summer.

Now Is a Great Time to Replace or Upgrade Your Air Conditioning System
March 14th, 2016Spring is the ideal time to evaluate your air conditioning system to see if it needs repairs, or in some cases should be upgraded or replaced entirely. You never want to head into the hot weather of the middle of the year with an aging, inferior, and energy-wasting air conditioner in your house. The best way to find the right path forward for excellent cooling is to call on us for regular maintenance. One of our experienced technicians will be able to give you a professional opinion about the state of your AC and whether a replacement is the more cost-effective choice over continuing with repairs.

Coats for Kids – 315 Coats Collected!
January 29th, 2016THANK YOU TO ALL THOSE WHO DONATED!
Purl’s Sheet Metal wrapped up our 2015 Coats for Kids drive with a total collection of 315 coats. Our customers, employees and the kids at Lincoln Elementary School in Madera collected coats. 
This has been a very cold winter and every coat collected was desperately needed.
We celebrated at Lincoln School with the class who collected the most amounts of coats. The pizza party with Mrs. Bowser’s 5th grade class gave us the opportunity to thank for the kids for their part in bringing in a total of 315 coats. We appreciate the hard work of the students! We visited with the class about the importance of helping others in our community and how we can all make a difference!
All of the coats collected stayed in Madera County and were distributed by our local Salvation Army Office. What a great way to celebrate successful Coats for Kids drive in Madera and we look forward to another great year in 2016!
Thank you!
The Importance of Proper Attic Insulation for Your Home
January 25th, 2016Insulation is one of the keys to keeping a home both comfortable and energy-saving throughout the year. Insulation serves as a barrier against the movement of heat, so in summer it keeps out excessive heat from moving indoors (sparing your air conditioning system a lot of extra labor) and during the winter it helps to trap heat indoors (which gives your heating system a welcome break).
Reverse Your Ceiling Fans This Winter to Help with Heating Bills
January 19th, 2016During the summer, ceiling fans are a great way to have increased comfort while also reducing the work load on your air conditioning system. In the regular operation of a ceiling fan, the rotating blades force room air down and create a “wind chill” effect: the movement of the air pushes away the heat envelope from around your body, allowing you to release more heat and feel cooler.
