Every year, Fort Collins Heating & Air Conditioning accepts nominations for local families in the community who need a new furnace. There were so many great entries this year, but one stood out above the rest.

The winner of the free furnace is a woman from Wellington who lives on a fixed income because she had broken her back and can’t work. Her daughter-in-law, Sarah P, nominated her.

Necessary home improvements

The following is taken from her official entry: “I would like to nominate my mother-in-law Cecelia R. She is on a fixed income (SSDI) which makes it difficult to make necessary home improvements. Not only is she in need of a new furnace, but she has been living without a central air conditioning unit for at least two years. She watches our two girls for us 4 days a week and we’d love to help give back to her for all that she does for us.”

Fort Collins were very excited to be able to help provide Cecelia with comfort in her home. Before they installed the new furnace, she had to bang the old one just to get it going! However, when they heard about her situation, they not only gave her a new furnace, but a new air conditioner as well. It was emotional for the team at Fort Collins. Fort Collins Heating & Air Conditioning wishes everyone a merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
