Local Climate Challenges

The Lincoln area experiences dramatic seasonal changes that demand versatile heating solutions:

  • Winter temperatures frequently dipping below freezing
  • Sudden weather shifts common to the Great Plains
  • Heavy snowfall periods requiring peak furnace performance
  • Variable humidity levels affecting indoor comfort
