Heating Help - Press Release
Colorado Ugly Wins the HeatingHelp.com Prize Larry Holman of Larry’s Air Conditioning and Heating in Longmont, CO was the winner of the $1,000 prize in HeatingHelp.com’s Ugly System Competition. PRLog (Press Release) – January 8, 2011 Larry Holman of Larry’s Air Conditioning and Heating in Longmont, CO was the winner of the $1,000 prize in HeatingHelp.com’s Ugly System Competition. “This contest has shown me some ugly stuff,” said Dan Holohan, owner of the HeatingHelp.com site, “but Larry’s service call topped them all. There was something about the plugged, upside-down relief valve, the missing gas burners, the dog’s breakfast of wires, and the Vice Grip that was holding the circulator to the rotted boiler flange that just touched my soul. It had me at hello.” Like Holohan, Larry started in the business in 1970 and stated that this was the butt-ugliest repair he had ever seen. “The three families that were living in the home tried to fix it themselves,” Larry said. “It has since been replaced.” Another of the many things the Ugly System Competition brought to light is that it’s probably not a good idea to pipe an entire boiler room in PEX plastic. “We had a few of those, “Holohan noted. “Iron components weigh more than PEX plastic, and it’s tough to argue with gravity.” Proving that even in ugly times, things can always get worse, Holohan declared the Ugly System Competition a delightful success. When asked what was next, Holohan replied, “A good, stiff drink.” Visit http://www.heatinghelp.com/forum-thread/134034/WINNER and click on the link to see photos of the winning system. # # # HeatingHelp.com is the place to go for information about heating systems - both old and new.
