Our Policies and Procedures
● We are requiring that a team member with any symptoms of any respiratory illness or fever stay home and
not return to work until cleared by a physician.

specifically for COVID-19 virus provided by the Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH).

● We have limited all non-essential travel for all employees for the next 30 days.
● Access to our facilities is limited to Douglas personnel and essential vendors only.
● We have discontinued all large gathering events for next 30 days.
● Our advanced phone, dispatching, and accounting system allows most everyone in our two office locations
to work remotely, creating no interruption in service to our customers.
● In order to comply with guidelines by the CDC and ADPH, and to protect our staff and customers, we are
canceling calls to homes where someone is quarantined, has symptoms of respiratory illness, and/or has
fever.
Please know that the wellness and safety of our team and customers continue to be our top priority. If you have a
service-related emergency, we encourage you to continue choosing Douglas for your HVAC, Water Heater,

There is much to consider regarding the COVID-19 virus (Coronavirus) and its possible transmission in your home. While there are various and effective indoor air quality measures available to help protect your safety, including duct sanitization, ultraviolet (UV) germicidal light treatment, and HEPA air filters, they alone cannot protect from all forms of COVID-19 transmission. It is important to follow all official guidelines for preventing the spread of this virus.
