The HVAC system(2 zones) was replaced 3-4 years ago and receives semi-annual maintenance. You'll never run out of hot water with the Rinnai on-demand gas water heater.

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
