Safe, Prepared and Open For Business: What We're Doing To Prevent COVID-19 From Spreading in Northern Virginia
March 24, 2020
In the ongoing, growing COVID-19 viral pandemic, the world is dealing with a real public health crisis. We want you to know that we're doing everything possible to protect the health and well-being of both our customers and our employees. After all, we're all in this together.
We also want you to know that we're open for business. We’re working hard every day focused on two objectives: 1) doing our part to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus in the Northern Virginia area by limiting our exposure, and 2) continuing to serve residential and commercial clients in Loudoun, Fairfax, Arlington and Prince William with top-quality, affordable HVAC, plumbing and electrical home services.
Spring has sprung and the weather's already getting warmer, so be sure to keep up with your Air Conditioner's seasonal maintenance schedule! You can call us at 571-421-1888 to schedule a check-up today.
We’d like to take a moment to share with you the extra precautions we're taking as we all work together to halt the Coronavirus pandemic:
We prepare to enter your home. Before entering your home (or any building) to inspect the pipes, furnace, A/C unit or whatever, our technicians arrive wearing rubber gloves and immediately don protective footwear covers. They will then ask if they can wash their hands thoroughly. Furthermore, we'll use your home's optimal entry point at your request to reach our worksite with the least interaction, and where interaction is needed we practice distancing techniques. Also, you can call our office to make a payment - no iPad signing!
We're always friendly, but we respect everyone's space. Call it Social Distancing or Physical Distancing, the fact is we all must keep it for now. No handshakes (for now), but you know the folks at Modern Mechanical's family of companies One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning, Mister Sparky Electrical and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing are always good for a smile and friendly greeting (from more than six feet away)!
We're telling employees who aren't feeling well to stay home. It's everyone's responsibility to protect our most vulnerable neighbors, so we're taking any potential coronavirus symptom seriously. If a technician feels at all ill, they'll be sent to their home, not yours.
No problem if you need to cancel due to an illness in the household. We'll be available to visit your home for HVAC, plumbing or electrical services once you or the family member has returned to good health. If anyone in the home gets sick soon after our technicians visit, please let our office know so we can protect others.
We're following guidelines provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), but we're also working to keep your home comfortable now and for the long run. Call 571-421-1888 to inquire about our preventive measures and to make your next Spring Maintenance appointment.
We're all in this together - and together is how we will make it through. The Modern Mechanical family of companies - One Hour Heating and Air Conditioning, Mister Sparky Electrical and Benjamin Franklin Plumbing - are taking every precaution to keep our employees and our customers safe and healthy. We wish you and your family nothing but safety and health too. Thank you.
