Heat From Herschel Fundraiser
Ron, Herschel, and Diana Thomas
In memory of their beloved lab, Herschel Thomas, Diana and Ron Thomas of H.E.A.T. Total Facility Solutions, Inc. are donating all the labor to install a new heating and cooling system at HSDC! Currently there is no ventilation system in the building.
The new system will have outdoor air ventilation to keep the animals warm, cool, and healthy with fresh air coming in and going out of the building. Such ventilation is legally required for people, but not for animals.
