Why should I have a carbon monoxide alarm in my home?
The Importance of a Dehumidifier
If you commonly get allergies, you know that they can get rather miserable at times. When you live in the south (especially Counce, Tennessee), you are use to a humid climate, there are many triggers for these things—dust mites, mold, mildew, and seasonal allergies. If you find that you are suffering a lot, a good dehumidifier can help–in more ways than one.
FAQs about Geo Thermal Energy
1. WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING GEOTHERMAL ENERGY?
Several attributes make it a good source of energy.
First, it's clean. Energy can be extracted without burning a fossil fuel such as coal, gas, or oil. Geothermal fields produce only about one-sixth of the carbon dioxide that a relatively clean natural-gas-fueled power plant produces, and very little if any, of the nitrous oxide or sulfur-bearing gases. Binary plants, which are closed cycle operations, release essentially no emissions.
Fall HVAC Tips
Don’t Duck the Work of Ductwork
A major problem that all too many people let fall to the wayside when it comes to keeping up their home’s air conditioning system involves the efficiency, cleanliness, and just overall quality of their house’s duct system. Unkempt or constructed ducts can cause a great deal of damage to a home and the people who live there (not to mention causing the utility bills to skyrocket if the problem gets too far out of hand). Contaminants that invade the home via ductwork get dispersed into the atmosphere of the home, which can have long-lasting and detrimental repercussions on your health.

We’ve discussed before about how fall and spring are the most important seasons for scheduling basic maintenance and tune-ups for your heating and air conditioning systems.
