What do I do if I smell gas?
Call the fire department if the odor is very strong or if illness occurs (nausea, headache and/or dizziness and respiratory distress). Virginia Natural Gas can be contacted on their 24 hour emergency line at 877-572-3342. Call Kellam Mechanical for repairs or if a faint odor is detected.

What is refrigerant?
A chemical that produces a refrigerating effect while expanding
and vaporizing. Most residential air conditioning systems contain
R-22 or R-410 refrigerant. R-22 and R-410 are regulated by international
controls under the Environmental Protection Agency.
Note: R-22 will no longer be produced after the year 2010 which
will increase costs
due to limited availability. Howeowner's with equipement can schedule
a consult with one of our experts to discuss upgrading to high
efficiency equipment.
