HILLSIDE, NJ, January 18, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Although the President-Elect Barack Obama's inauguration day will not be the coldest (Ronald Regan had the coldest 7 degrees at noon) nor will he have the snowiest (that honor went to William Taft 10 inches) it will be the one that will signal the beginning of a New Era for the United States of America. To ensure that guests, press and support staff is kept warm during the event On Site Energy Co., Inc. (OSEC), together with AirPac, Inc. was asked to provide temporary heating solutions for the many tents that will be erected for this, the 56th inauguration ceremony. On Site Energy Co. will provide in excess of 11 million BTU's of electric heat to keep everyone at a comfortable room temperature.
On Site Energy Co., Inc. being headquartered in New York has had its share of Presidential encounters in the past. Pat French, VP of Sales explained, "In our 25 year history we've been at the Democratic National Convention in Madison Square Garden, to fundraisers in the Hamptons, and the Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum and its re-opening. We're no strangers to providing both power and temperature control for ultra high profile events such as this historic inauguration, it's in our blood." The weather for Tuesday is expected to be seasonal with the temperature right around 35 degrees, mostly cloudy and light winds.
The sheer masses of people that are expected to attend this historic event will make getting into a good viewing position very difficult and time consuming; people will be jockeying position starting on Monday. Even in these seasonal temperatures, prolonged exposure to the elements can lead to health hazards. Joe Gere, GM of On Site Energy Co. NJ reminded us of the story of William Henry Harrison who in 1841 decided to brave the elements and deliver the longest inauguration speech ever, an oration lasting one hour and 40 minutes. Harrison, who wore neither hat nor overcoat, rode a horse to and from the Capitol ceremony. He subsequently caught a cold that developed into pneumonia and a month later, Harrison passed away. Joe cautioned, "People will most likely be outside much longer than for any other inauguration in history, dress warm and in layers and take precautions we don't want this day to be marred by any risks to anyone's health.
On Site Energy Co., a solution driven, regional renter of power, cooling, and heating equipment with field experts to assist customers in all event, industrial, commercial, and technology related sectors meet their goals and reduce their exposure while providing an environmentally friendly alternative.
