Message from the President - Save Energy NOW and in the Future!

Energy efficiency is in the news again due to the big increase in natural gas prices this year that will continue to rise and likely set historic records next winter. Most industry experts agree the era of very low gas prices is behind us. However they all agree that energy management starts with the selection and use of energy efficient building systems. That means don't let the lowest bidder determine what's important to you when it comes to saving energy. So if you are putting up a new facility, expanding an existing one, rehabbing an old building or replacing a worn out heating/ventilating system, let Cambridge show you how to start saving energy this year and in years to come! During our 40 year history, Cambridge has helped many companies minimize space heating costs which only adds to the bottom line. We have seen the cost of natural gas to heat a factory or warehouse steadily increase more than 6-fold since the 1960's, quadruple during the 2000 heating season and recently spike 500% due to unexpected cold weather that sapped 2003 natural gas supplies. So, you might have gotten by with your present system in past years with warmer winters and lower gas prices, but this past heating season was a costly one for inefficient heating systems.

The good news is that you can save 40% to 60% per year on your combined gas, electric, operating and maintenance costs by installing a new Cambridge high temperature rise direct fired heating system. If you are building a new facility, you really won't have to pay extra to get a more energy efficient Cambridge heater. The energy efficiency is designed into each and every high temperature rise S-Series space heater. For an existing building heated with an old boiler system, unit heaters, indirect gas-fired air turnover units or even infrared heaters, the payback for installing a new Cambridge heating system can be only a few years, if not shorter as energy prices continue to rise.

Give us a call. We are ready and able to evaluate your needs for saving energy now and in the future.
