Each year, our Furnace Giveaway for Flyers Fans — held in partnership with the University of Dayton — gives one local homeowner a major win before the final buzzer of winter. This year, more than 350 Dayton-area residents entered for a chance to upgrade their heating system and stay warm through the rest of the season.
The giveaway ended February 15, and the selected homeowner moved from notification to full installation in just five days. From in-home evaluation to completed install, our team ran a full-court press on comfort and delivered exactly what we promise at Logan Services: The Home of Fast, Friendly Service.
If your furnace is nearing the end of its lifespan, schedule your free, same-day estimate and see how quickly we can deliver your own comfort win.

Winner Announcement
CONGRATULATIONS to Rosemary of Dayton!
On February 17, Riley from our marketing team made the call every entrant hoped to receive. And within 24 hours, Rosemary’s in-home evaluation was scheduled and completed. Our team moved quickly to complete her furnace replacement two days later so her home would stay warm for the remainder of the heating season.
A Furnace Past Its Prime
Rosemary’s previous furnace was more than 25 years old in her 1916 Dayton home. It would shut down unexpectedly, forcing her to reset it just to keep the heat on.
A replacement control board bought her time, but she was advised to begin planning for a full system replacement. Living on Social Security as a retired widow, a new furnace was not a small expense — it was a major decision.
In her entry, she shared both her need and her lifelong connection to Flyers basketball.
“I have had times when it would just stop running, and I learned how to reset it. Then a new computer board was installed, and I was told it was a fix for the time being, but I should think about a new furnace. So far, it is holding up. I am a retired widow on social security. It would be a gift to win this.”
For Rosemary, this giveaway was more than a prize. It was a relief before the next cold snap.
A Flyers Fan Since The Fieldhouse Days
Rosemary’s story is rooted in Dayton tradition. Her father graduated from the University of Dayton on the GI Bill and took her to games at the old fieldhouse when she was a young girl.
When UD Arena opened in 1969, he secured season tickets. Today, her brothers still sit in those original seats and often take Rosemary to games. For her family, Flyers basketball is not just a season — it is a legacy passed down generation to generation.
“I love UD basketball. My Dad graduated from UD on the GI bill. He took me to the fieldhouse to watch the games when I was a young girl. He bought season tickets when the arena opened in 1969. My brothers still purchase Dad’s original seats and take me to the games often.”
As a locally owned company that has been Bringing Comfort Home Since 1969 — the same year UD Arena opened — supporting Flyers fans is one way we give back to the community that supports us.
From Tip-Off To Installation In Five Days
On February 18, Steven and Scott completed Rosemary’s in-home evaluation. They measured the home, reviewed the existing equipment, and confirmed the proper furnace sizing for a property built in 1916.
Older homes require careful planning. Ductwork layout, system capacity, and long-term reliability all matter. Our comfort consultants ensure every recommendation fits the home and the homeowner’s budget.
Just two days later, Shane, Brendan, and Greg completed the installation. No delays. No overtime. Just coordinated teamwork from start to finish.

The New System: A Reliable Upgrade
Rosemary’s home now features a new Trane 96 Two-Stage Gas Furnace — a dependable heating system designed to deliver steady performance through Ohio winters.
Replacing a 25+ year-old furnace is not a minor adjustment. It is a complete system reset. With her new equipment, Rosemary can expect:
- Consistent, even heat throughout the home
- Fewer unexpected breakdowns
- Higher energy efficiency
- Greater peace of mind during peak heating season
When a system is past its prime, waiting for a total shutdown is a risky play. Planning ahead protects both comfort and budget.
A Slam-Dunk Review From A Lifelong Flyers Fan
“Thank you for choosing me as the recipient of the Free Furnace Giveaway to a UD Flyer Basketball fan. I still can’t believe it! This is a remarkable gift!
Riley called me Tuesday to tell me the exciting news, and on Wednesday Steven and Scott came out and measured. They were wonderful and kept congratulating me! And just like that, a new Trane furnace was installed today! Shane and Brenden did a fantastic job. Every team member has been so nice. Once again, I thank you very much.
Go Flyers!“
