Ask the Expert – 570 News
2014-12-10
🎙️ Did you hear it? Our General Manager, Stephen McDonald, was featured on 570 News’ “Ask The Expert” radio segment!
He was joined by his son and fellow Afterglow enthusiast, Rowan McDonald, for a 40-minute discussion with host Dave Callandar, where they answered listener questions about heating and HVAC systems.
🔥 What Did They Talk About?
Listeners called in with real-world heating questions — and the McDonalds delivered expert insights on:
- Thermostats and how to use them efficiently
- Furnace filters and when to replace them
- Home ventilation and indoor air quality
- Humidifiers and dry winter air
- Boilers and energy efficiency
One of our favourite moments:
“In the winter, Ontario homes can have as much moisture in the air as the desert.” — Stephen McDonald
💬 Why We Love This Segment
When asked why he chose to appear on the show, Stephen shared:
“I want to communicate and connect with the people, and tell stories about what we’re doing in the Kitchener-Waterloo area.”
That’s what Afterglow is all about — sharing knowledge and helping our community stay safe and warm.
