Built for NE Ohio winters
Campbell sits in the valley along the Mahoning River next to Youngstown — inland of the worst lake-effect but locked into long, damp cold November through March and a 42-inch frost line. Small, older, lightly-insulated homes lose heat quickly here, so no-heat calls spike on the first hard freeze and an undersized or failing furnace gets exposed fast. The frost line here is about 42 inches and hard-freeze season runs November through March, so heating equipment in Campbell works longer and harder than it would almost anywhere else — and the cost of a no-heat call in February is a lot higher than an inconvenience.
