Local conditions that affect your system
Cold winters
Subfreezing stretches and snow test furnaces and block high-efficiency vents.
Wildfire smoke
Late-summer smoke makes filtration and a sealed home important.
Windstorms
Strong wind events have caused long outages, which matter for all-electric homes.
Seasons and peak demand in Spokane
Spokane winters average in the 20s and 30s with regular snow. Summers are hot and dry, with highs in the upper 80s and 90s and smoke likely in August. Heating runs from October into April. A fall furnace check before the first snow is the best-timed visit of the year here.
