Written on: January 9, 2023
Keep your new construction project on track, no matter the weather
When most folks think of Texas, they envision warmer weather, year-round. But Texans know the temperature can drop drastically in the winter months—especially at night. Temporary heat is the answer to keeping your commercial projects on track, regardless of what the weather is doing.
Read below to learn more about how temporary construction site heat can help you manage your projects efficiently and on deadline – without ever compromising the quality of your construction.
Protect your project with propane
The Texas construction industry is booming, with strong demand for new homes, especially in College Station, Richards, Huntsville, and surrounding areas. As the industry grows, so does the need to plan out jobs well, manage your teams efficiently and meet your deadlines—always. And that’s where propane for new construction comes in—with the right fuel to keep your project going, your project is sure to be a success.
As your project goes up, you’ll probably need temporary heat. Because no matter what, the work must be done! J&B Propane offers bulk propane you can use to run your temporary heating equipment. When you purchase bulk propane for your construction project, you can do all the following and more:
- Prevent plumbing emergencies. Temporary construction heat protects exposed plumbing pipes from the cold. It’s crucial to prevent pipes from freezing or bursting by keeping pipes at the most appropriate temperatures, no matter how cold it gets.
- Maintain construction quality. Keep spaces as warm as they need to be for paint to properly cure and for joint compound and spackle to adhere to drywall.
- Adhere to your schedule. If the weather is too cold, drying and curing time for painting projects can last longer, and some paints become complicated to properly apply. The quality of plaster and stucco could also be diminished.
