Business is Booming

The numbers from 2011 in the US for that GeoThermal Heat Pumps sales grew again to just a few units less than 150,000 installs for the year. And are projected to sale 326,000 units annually in 2017. That is a growth rate of 14% per year during some of the worst economic conditions of our time. GeoThermal is the fastest growing segment of the entire HVAC industry.

The use of GeoThermal Heat Pumps integrated with energy management systems, programmable thermostats and minimizing Utility Companies demand based pricing, will give homeowners and companies powerful new capabilities for heating and cooling while SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCING their energy costs.

Yavapai Plumbing & Heating understands this and can help you make the right long term decision that will literally save you thousands.

Just a little food for thought

Here it is, that time of year that we have to close up our homes to the outside cold and start up our furnaces. With that comes dry skin, bloody noses, and just a general stuffy feeling in the home. We may not be able to change the outdoor air quality, but we do have the power to improve our indoor air quality.

There are a variety of products on the market that can help make our home environment more comfortable in the winter. Adding a humidifier and/or Air purification system can make a big difference.

Grey Water – A Good Quick Lesson

What is meant by a “Gray Water System”?
Gray water systems pipe all the waste water from bathroom sinks, tubs, showers, and clothes washer and deliver it to a holding tank via a filter for the purpose of pumping it out to landscape irrigation or back into the home for use to flush toilets.

Who is able to install a “Gray Water System”?
New homes under construction are the easiest way to achieve a gray water system. However, if the home is built on a crawl space the existing piping system may be modified to tank advantage of this system.

What plumbing fixtures can NOT be on a “Gray Water System”?
The toilets and the kitchen sink are not allowed to be pumped into a storage tank for irrigation or gray water use. All other home fixtures are allowed to be used for this purpose.

These Warms Days Can Fool You

Now that the holidays have come and gone and the weather is spring like again don’t be fooled. We will have our cold weather event here shortly.

Remember to keep water lines winterized, such as hoses disconnected from bibs, freeze bags on irrigation systems and the like. If you’re going to be away from the house for any period of time, leave the thermostat set to 55 degrees.

Just a few simple steps that I have laid out here can save the aggravation of frozen water lines. As always any questions feel free to call me and we can chat about it. Regards, Bill Morse
