Introducing Sam Gault, Social Media Star
Last month, our marketing team seemed determined to make me a social media star… And while I don’t think we quite pulled that off, I did have a pretty great interview with David Briggs as part of his Instagram interview series with Westport Magazine.
While we spent most of the interview talking about Westport, our history around town and hopes for the future, we closed on an extremely relevant topic: the evolution of our business as a result of COVID-19 and climate change.
The HVAC side of our business has seen all new levels of appreciation due to COVID-19. Beyond safely repairing, replacing and maintaining your equipment, our team increasingly fields questions on Indoor Air Quality products and how they can reduce the presence of coronavirus in the home.
In regards to climate change, it’s a hot topic and our industry has set big milestones to continue to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of our fuel. We deliver Bioheat, a blend of ultra-low sulfur heating oil with biodiesel, a domestic and sustainable heating oil replacement. Currently, we deliver a 5 to 7% Bioheat blend to your homes; as an industry, our goal is to increase the blend to 20% by 2023, 50% by 2030 and to be carbon neutral by 2050!
The 30-minute interview was live-streamed from The Whelk, one of the fantastic restaurants located in our Saugatuck Center development. If you’re interested in watching it, you can find the video on Instagram @westportmagazine or hit play below.
