Fire Prevention Week is October 9-15th!


Fire Prevention Week is October 9 – 15th so we thought we would offer some home fire prevention safety tips to help you keep your home and family protected.

Home Fire Prevention Tips From Your Heating & Cooling Comfort Pros:
  • 30% of fires caused by home heating systems is due to a failure to have the equipment properly maintained. It is important to have your heating equipment cleaned and inspected every year. The WK Comfort Club is a great way to stay on track and ensure that the HVAC equipment in your home is safe and in good working order!

  • Smoke & Carbon Monoxide detectors are a key component in keeping your family safe in the event of a fire. Below are some smoke alarm rules:
  • You should have smoke detectors outside every sleeping area.
  • They should also be located on every level of your home including the basement.
  • Test your Smoke & Carbon Monoxide Detectors every 30 days and replace the batteries yearly to ensure that they are in good working order.
  • Replace all smoke alarms within 10 years of the manufacture date printed on the back.
  • Consider installing an interconnected smoke alarm system, so that when one sounds, they all sound.
  • Also consider the installation of a central station fire alarm so that in the event of a fire, the authorities are alerted. This could save valuable time and potentially save your home.
  • Make sure you have a fully charged fire extinguisher on every floor of your home.
  • 56% of reported home heating fire deaths were the result of HVAC equipment being too close to things that can burn, such as upholstered furniture, clothing, mattress, or bedding. Be sure the space around your HVAC equipment is clear.
  • Be sure to properly maintain your fireplace.
  • Have your chimney cleaned and inspected annually.
  • Make sure the fireplace has a sturdy screen to stop sparks from flying into the room.
  • Ashes should be cool before putting them in a metal container.
  • Keep the metal ash container a safe distance away from your home (not on a porch or deck).
  • Make sure your dryer is lint-free. Don’t just clean the filter but also the vent hose.
  • In the event of a fire, closing the door to the room can significantly slow the spread of the fire.
Invest In Peace Of Mind With An Automatic Standby Generator.
How to prepare your home for power outages.


A power outage whether caused by a storm or another emergency can be a mere inconvenience, cause damage to your property or even in some situations become life-threatening. One way to prepare your home for power outages is to seek the help of a professional like WK Mechanical and install an automatic standby generator for some added peace of mind. There are many factors to consider when it comes to installing a generator, so it makes sense to consult the help of a knowledgeable technician. We can help you determine the type and size of the generator you need, how much your home’s electrical system will be able to handle, as well as how much of your home you would like the generator to power.

There are several advantages to installing an Automatic Standby Generator, below are our top 10 reasons to consider installing a generator at your home or business:
  • You won’t have to think in emergencies, your new generator will kick on within seconds of a power outage.
  • Generators can be sized to suit your needs. They can provide power to your entire home or a few key spaces such as the kitchen, bathroom, and home office.
  • If you have a sump pump in your basement when the power goes out, your generator will kick on and keep your basement dry!
  • You can stop having to throw out food after the power has been out because your generator will keep your refrigerator running.
  • Any well pump or water filtration system will continue to provide your family with clean, safe, running water during a power outage when it is hooked up to a generator.
  • You can worry less about any family members who need medical equipment that run on electricity. A generator keeps the power going!
  • If you work from home, you will be able to continue working because your generator will keep the power flowing to your lights and computers.
  • In the event of a power outage during an ice storm, you can remain at home, safe and WARM!
  • Potential buyers see a standby generator as a big perk, so it increases your property value.
  • Some insurance providers give discounts when a home has a whole-house generator installed so you can save money too!
