Just a Bunch of Hot Air?



Okay call us skeptical, how can a termite treatment from Ecola Termite and Pest Management that HEATS houses up to 180 degrees be eco-friendly? Sure it doesn't use any pesticides or harmful chemicals but it does "heat" your house. If it heats, it has to contribute to global warming right?


They say it's "a great alternative to the poisonous methods of fumigation! Ecola is a one-stop call for any type of pest control. They have it ALL! 1-800-332-2847 Serving all of Southern California termitelady.com"

This just sounds too good to be true.

What do you think?

simply producing heat does not contribute to global warming. Maybe local warming. Those heaters use propane a very clean burning fuel, like methane. I does not create the same kind of emissions that a car does. These are the types of heaters that are used to heat construction sits and sections of outdoor sport stadiums in the winter. the air is pulled in from the back passes the burner gets heated up and exits the front. the exhaust is nil. Heat does not add to global warming by it self, otherwise we would have to be concerned about the ground retaining and radiating the heat from the sun and other natrual heat sources.
P.S. I used to do this for a living, I worked in the environments we heated. This leaves a much smaller carbon footprint than the average commuters trip to work.
