Meet Alyssa Strine, Administrative Assistant and one of the people who help keep Local 602 moving! Born and raised in Calvert County, Alyssa still calls the area home with her husband Steve (a 602 member) and their two kids.

For more than two years, she’s been helping members with everything from dues and questions to monthly contractor reports. Her favorite part of the job? The people, the camaraderie, and getting to know the members who make up 602.

Thanks for all you do, Alyssa! 💙

The end of cooling season is the most important maintenance window that most homeowners skip.

HVAC 911's latest blog post breaks down why. After a long summer of cooling, your AC's evaporator coil and drain pan are left damp and coated in buildup. Leave it idle for months and mold takes hold, along with the musty smell that hits when you turn the AC back on in spring. A professional coil cleaning now stops it before it starts.

Need service in the DC area? Call HVAC 911 at (301) 939-0499 or go to HVAC911.com/DC to get connected with licensed HVAC technicians.
