F.H. Furr's Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical Insider Blog

Choosing a contractor to repair or replace your HVAC system can be a hard job. What do YOU as the homeowner need to take into consideration?

After last week's tornado touchdowns, we've noticed power outages are occurring more frequently than ever in Northern Virginia & Maryland, lasting longer and causing more harmful effects.

At F.H. Furr, our slogan of “Absolutely the Best” isn’t just some marketing gimmick. It’s the cornerstone of our business. We believe that if we provide “absolutely the best” technicians and customer service to our customers that we will build the relationships that will sustain our business for the next 30 years.

We get asked questions all the time, by customers that call in, customers we see at events and even people our techs run into just in passing! So, we decided we would put together a blog series about some of these frequently asked questions! We'll touch on garbage disposals, water pressure, toilets, water heaters and even sump pumps!

There is a 99.9% chance your home will have a power surge of some sort...whether it's from the electrical grid, or an upcoming storm....are you PREPARED?

When thinking of Spring, we think of opening the windows and airing out the house. We think of making an appointment to have our air conditioner checked to be sure it will be ready when we need it. We think of swapping out our Winter clothes for Spring and Summer ones.
