Monitoring & Driving Energy Efficiency

Steering Wheel
Larry Osborne | Eco Green, Members 0

by Terri Hawkins

Earlier this month, Larry Osborne of Eco Green Lighting, Electric, Water & Air introduced a new business energy saving line he is now representing: Energy Integrated Solutions (EIS). Their products are useful in putting operation managers in the driver’s seat—with monitors and controls to save both energy and costs for their business. Too often, businesses don’t have real-time displays to know what is happening to their energy, and often staff work at cross purposes in managing use (the thermostat can have people visiting it all day).

For such energy usage problems, EIS has just released  their next-generation solution, not even posted on their website yet, called Site Sage, which provides and enhances, even remotely, the control of facilities–perfect for retailers, multi-location facilities, corporate campuses or industry.

Although we were able to see a sneak peek video demo of this product at our meeting, it is not even on their website yet. To get an idea of how EIS products monitor for improved performance you can click here and see the animation for their Eniscope product (or go to http://www.energyintegratedsolutions.com/products/eniscope/animation).

If you know of someone challenged with improving their operation’s bottom line efficiencies, introduce them to Larry, so he can help them better control their energy costs.

Are You Over or Underinsured?

Home
Members, Shelby Kernodle | NC Farm Bureau Insurance , , , , 0

Being over or under insured is one of the biggest issues that insurance providers see, according to Shelby Kernodle with Farm Bureau Insurance.

You should have your insurance policies reviewed every 3-5 years to be sure you are properly covered. An insurance agent can help you calculate the replacement cost of your home and its contents–your personal property. Typically, your policy should cover the following items:

  • Dwelling
  • Other structures
  • Personal Property
  • Loss of Use

Shelby provides great rates for home, auto, health, and life insurance for her clients. She’ll do a free review of your insurance policies. PLUS, if she can save you money, she’ll let you know. And if you’re getting a great rate currently, then she’ll let you know that, too!

  • Great referrals for Shelby include people who:
  • Have received a Consent to Rate letter
  • Need an insurance review
  • Don’t know their agent
  • Own a vehicle

Contact Shelby Kernodle today to find out if you’ve got the right coverage and you’re getting the best rate.

Go with the Flow — Drain Your Yard Properly

Wet Yard
John Shoe | Spinning Blades Lawn Care, Members , 0

by Terri Hawkins

Jonathan Shoe with Spinning Blades Lawn Care loves the outdoors. After graduating from UNCG with a degree in history and a brief stint teaching, he returned to his outdoor roots and began a new trade. What began as a few lawns, gradually expanded as his customers wanted him to do more. So he sought out the best in his field, and as he added services, his landscaping business grew.

This past week at PBL he shared some of his knowledge about landscape drainage issues. Rainy days can reveal a host of problems that occur when water becomes a destructive force. When not properly diverted away from homes or property, water problems ranging from mosquitoes and mold to soggy yards and flooding can ensue.

Drainage problems can also be caused by the wrong choice of pipe or improper installation. Corrugated pipe is easy to work with, but easy to damage. It can be crushed by construction vehicles driving over it, such as when remodeling or adding an outbuilding. Hard pipe is more expensive and less flexible, but provides worry-free drainage for 15–20 years, helping water to flow properly and protect your property.

Don’t get mired in the mud, drown in leaves or overgrown property! Call Jonathan with Spinning Blades Lawn Care and let his team care for your year-round landscaping needs — or introduce him to your Triad friends. Whatever season it is, Jonathan’s team is ready to help with residential and commercial landscaping, from planting flowers and shrubs to year-round mowing and trim work, fall leaf removal, grass plugging, and seeding.

As Jonathan says, “We care and it shows.”

 

Are you tired of your wet yard? Have you looked at the root cause?
