Most residential properties in the “Original” Grove have natural gas access. That makes gas furnaces and boilers popular home-heating options on both sides of Great River Road. When upgrading, we encourage area homeowners to consider high-efficiency boilers and furnaces along with programmable and smart thermostats. The reduced fuel consumption can be considerable. For more substantial energy savings, customers can explore dual-fuel heat pumps or grid-based and stand-alone solar-powered add-ons for their heating.
The average water hardness in Cottage Grove is high at around 17 grains per gallon. That’s due to our proximity to the Mississippi River. If you’re unsure what your water hardness is, our technicians can test it for you. You can then explore the solutions we offer if needed. For many area homes, a water softener can save big money over the years. It can do that by protecting your pipes, fixtures, water heater, and other water-using appliances.
Some of the homes in the region, including the John P. Furber house, date back to the 1800s. It’s not unusual to find older electrical systems no longer up to code. Our team encourages all area homeowners to schedule regular electrical inspections. Even many newer homes in town don’t have whole-house surge protection. For older homes, we can upgrade the electrical panel, add GFCI and AFCI protection, and add lighting and outlets.
