Air Conditioning for Radiator-Heated Homes

presented by Hero Plumbing, Heating & Cooling

If your home is heated with radiators, you most likely do not have any preexisting ductwork. However, this does not mean you cannot have a central AC system installed. In many cases, new ductwork can be installed so that you can enjoy central air conditioning. However, if you are not able to have ducts installed, or you do not wish to undertake such a project, there are other AC options available to you.

Stop Mulching, Keep Planting!

presented by Field Outdoor Spaces, Inc.

Tired of lugging bags of mulch from the gas station or paying a contractor several hundred dollars to mulch? Jason Rathe, owner of Field Landscaping, will show how a “community planting” approach can lead to planting beds that are low-maintenance AND don’t need to be mulched. This approach is perfect for slopes, lawn replacement or any planting area — and can be great for bees and butterflies, too!”
