Wild Fires & HVAC systems
The air quality in the Central Valley has been greatly affected by the many wild fires burning in our area. We can look out our window and see the smoke in our Valley. Smoke mixed in the air from wild fires often includes a lot of small particles. When you run your HVAC system in these conditions some of these partials can enter your home and affect your indoor air quality. It is important to service and clean your system and to change your filters more often in these conditions. You may consider upgrading your filters to a higher MERV rating for finer filtration.
If you are in a heavy smoke filled area you may consider cleaning the ductwork in your home or office to refresh your entire system. This is something you can seek advice from one of our indoor air quality specialists.

Homegrown by Purl’s Sheet Metal employees! Nothing beats home grown vegetables, especially tomatoes! Lucky for us, Sheryl Berry and Pat Reese both have amazing gardens full of delicious vine ripened tomatoes. They are kind enough to share with everyone!

Slice Tomatoes cross wise- Stuff with shredded lettuce, top with bacon and drizzle some homemade buttermilk ranch across the top! Salad in a tomato…Amazing! For an added bonus top with Feta or Blue cheese!
Don’t forget your pets on these hot days. Have a cool place for your pets with plenty of shade and fresh water. Hot surfaces can burn their paws and many pets can overheat easily. A little water in a kiddie pool is also a good choice for many pets.

from 2-21. When she talks about her grandkids she is all smiles! She spends as much time as possible with her grandkids. She loves to teach them the art of canning, baking, sewing and gardening, all the while teaching them to have a good work ethic.
Sheryl said she has so many great memories and loves the people she works with at Purl’s Sheet Metal. She said we have been through a lot together, and it is never dull! She especially remembers the April Fools joke played on her a few years back. She returned a phone call to the local Chafee Zoo, only to ask to speak to Mr. Lion….and it went downhill from there. Sheryl thinks we definitely have a lot of fun at Purl’s Sheet Metal and looks forward to a bright future.
