Built for NE Ohio winters
Hubbard sits on the eastern edge of Trumbull County near the Pennsylvania line, inland of the worst Erie lake-effect but still in for a long, cold heating season — hard freezes November through March and a 42-inch frost line. The damp valley cold settles in for months, so no-heat reliability matters as much here as anywhere in the county. The frost line here is about 42 inches and hard-freeze season runs November through March, so heating equipment in Hubbard 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.
