Stephen King Brings the Heat to Bangor

Residents of Bangor, a working class neighborhood in Maine, often struggle to stay warm during the wintertime with the extremely cold weather. Many of the elderly, poor, and disabled residents are unable to afford the high cost of heating and are forced to suffer in the unforgiving elements. This year could prove to be different, thanks to Stephen King, the well-known author and part-time resident of the town, who has vowed to bring an end to the injustice. Stephen and his wife Tabitha plan, with the backing of their Stephen and Tabitha King Foundation, to donate half of the cost with the other portion coming from generous residents of the community. The lack of heating has been magnified due to the recent Low Income Federal Energy Assistance Program cuts. Stephen King initially planned on working in conjunction with three radio stations in the hopes of raising at least $140,000. With a good Samaritan anonymous donor call and a request for King to match an additional $50,000, the total amount raised for the Help Keep ME Warm This Winter campaign totaled a whopping $241,840. A lack of heating isn’t a widely talked about dilemma, nor are the energy assistance programs out

Indoor Air Can be 70 Times More Polluted than Outdoor Air

You want your home to be safe, secure, and comfortable. You want it to be warm in the winter, cool in the summer, and to not cost you a fortune in the process. But, what if the very system that brings you this security is also a breeding ground for serious health issues? Don’t pack up just yet. There could be a low cost, easy solution. “The more your ‘sealed’ home is for energy efficiency, the more germs, pollutants, and allergens it’s keeping in,” says MightyServ. “In order to maintain humidity and temperature levels, the same air is continuously recycled throughout a home. This increases comfort, but it can also increase health risks. Breathing certain mold spores can cause illness – or even death – and they can develop inside the dark and damp environments of your duct system.” In fact, indoor air quality can be up to 70 times more polluted than the air outside your home.  So what can you do? MightyServ Heating and Air recommends these measures for maintaining a healthy home: Have ventilation systems cleaned annually to help eliminate dirt and mold growth. A qualified technician should check to be sure that all return air is run through the

Spring Cleaning Time

As we shift to spring and a warming trend, it’s the perfect opportunity to check the status of existing air conditioners and fans. Before the extreme summer heat sets in, homeowners should explore the condition of exhaust fans, cooling fans, and air conditioners. Any interior fan covers that are in place should be removed and washed with warm, mild, soapy water. Shop vacuums can work wonders when cleaning the filters and the interiors of fan units. A thorough examination of exterior fan ducts and dryer vent hoses and caps is necessary to rule out any damage or debris buildup that could have accumulated over the fall and winter months. For the highest functioning air conditioning units, all equipment should be inspected and serviced by professionals. Spring time marks a great time to get air conditioners and fans in working order. Professional air conditioning repair and installation companies effectively assess any air conditioning repair needs and offer the appropriate maintenance advice and service.

Standby generators available

Power outages and fluctuations cost the U.S. $30 billion in productivity annually. But there is protection from an unexpected power outage for the average homeowners: adding automatic power generators to their total heating and cooling systems. The Automatic Home Standby Generator from Carrier is more convenient and more powerful than retail portable generators, offering homeowners the ability to restore power and maintain a relatively normal routine during power outages. Unlike portable generators that must be refilled with gas, using up to 400 gallons over a two-week span, the Automatic Home Standby Generator is powered by natural or LP gas and is permanently fixed outside the home. When power outages occur, the system automatically senses loss of electricity and restores power to the selected circuits in about 30 seconds. The Carrier generator enables the continuous operation of vital equipment in the home powering up to 12 circuits. Now, during power outages a resident can enjoy a safe, comfortable and inhabitable home without any interruption of service from electrical appliances like heating and cooling systems, refrigerators and freezers, TV’s and much more.

Inventors Devise New Way To Maintain a Comfortable Body Temperature

Most people’s first instinct when they feel too warm or too cool in their home is to head for the thermostat on their central heating or air conditioning system. Inventors at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), however, have produced a new device which could help people maintain a comfortable body temperature without having to leave their seat. The idea of a personal cooling device would probably sound like science fiction to most people. The MIT team, though, have managed to produce a wristband device which can cool or warm someone according to their own personal preference. The new device also impressed judges in the MITs Making and Designing Materials Engineering Competition (MADMEC), where the device was considered worth a $10,000 prize. Known as Wristify, the appliance could soon be heading onto the mass market. Before that point, though, there is still much work to be done. The four MIT alumni and students who designed the device were largely motivated by what they saw as the mounting financial and social costs of energy consumption in the United States. A great deal of the energy used today, perhaps as much as 16.5 percent of the USA’s total energy usage, is devoted

Canyon country home air conditioning: preventative maintenance

One of the most important services an HVAC company can provide is preventative maintenance. Even if you have an AC system that seems to be running perfectly day after day, it may be time for you to have a certified technician come and check the system over. He will be able to do many little, inexpensive jobs that could keep you from ever needing to make a service call after a total breakdown. Preventative maintenance is one of the best ways to keep your home comfortable all year around. For example, your drain lines could be leaking slightly, making it harder for the HVAC system to drain away the excess water that is collected while it is running, especially in very hot weather. It will probably still be running, and you may not even notice any lessening in performance levels, but that does not mean that all is well. If the drain line stops working entirely, you will have quite the problem on your hands. However, a preventative maintenance call for your Canyon Country home air conditioning system could catch this leak and repair it while it is still small and inconsequential. When you work with a HVAC company they
