This was one of the worst situations of all our Precision Makeovers in terms of the system itself!  The furnace was ancient and red-flagged.  They had a direct hole from the roof to the basement through open duct work allowing cold air to flow freely into the basement, as well as birds!  There were even dead birds in the furnace itself!   They had a rusted out water heater that was barely working.  The family had to choose if they were going to wash dishes or take a five minute, luke-warm shower.  This family seemed to have one bad spell after another including the husband and wife losing their jobs and then the husband having a major stroke while training for a new job.  At the time of the installation of the Trane Comfort System and water heater, the husband was in the hospital with pneumonia while he was still trying to rehabilitate after the stroke.  We asked Flood Fighters to come in and clean up the mess from the dead birds in the basement as well as a recent flood.  They were very willing to offer their services free of charge to make this a healthy living environment for this family.  Our thanks go out to them for all their efforts and generosity.  The most incredible part of this situation was that while the mom was trying desperately to hold everything together for their young son, she maintained an amazingly positive, loving, and hopeful attitude!  We were so honored to be able to help minimize the stress by having a warm home, clean air to breath, a clean home, and the ability to take a warm shower!  We wish this beautiful family the very best! 

Thank you again to everyone who took the time to nominate someone deserving of this gift of warmth.  Northern Michigan is a wonderful place because of people who care about those around you!
