"Finally an honest Solar company!! I went through several companies trying to get quotes for one of my properties, either they were ridiculously expensive or they didn't return my calls. A friend of mine referred me to Mega Sun and I have to say I am very pleased. Within a couple days from the initial phone call I already had an estimate and once i decided to go with them the installation was completed in one week. Its been a little over a month since they completed the install and everything is working smoothly.

I was amazed at just how great the customer service was. I just want to say thank you to the whole team who helped out, I really appreciate all your hard work. Now I know you guys are the ones to call for all future jobs."

"Well, this isnt really about the company. They were fine and did their part satisfactorily. This is about one of their employees, a Mr Jim Costello. This man is old school fantastic. If you ever need Mr Rooter to come to your house, request this man, you will NOT be sorry. My background (retired now) has a lot of equipment or automotive mechanical experience in it. One thing that always bugged me was 'parts changers'. These type of people didn't know how to fix things or troubleshoot anything, they would just order a whole new this or that and on occasion get lucky and actually make something work Mr Costello is not like that. Not even close. I was having a rather unusual problem that nobody, not even the 'senior tech' could figure out. All he wanted to do was, you guessed it, order a whole new assembly. What Mr Costello, 'Jimmie', did is give me some good old school thinking and figuring and reasoned out the problem. Then, on a Friday evening, when most people would be trying to get home, he went back to the shop, searched for about an hour for the right part, and then came back ,That evening, to fix my heater. To me, an old school type, this meant a lot. For Jimmie, it wasn't about checking off boxes or punching a clock. To a man like Mr Costello, it is the job that matters, the 'git r done' attitude that is sadly lacking in so many people these days. It is too bad Mr Costello doesn't own his own business, he would get all my plumbing business from now on.

"Vortex Filtration Inc is a excellent company with vast experience & knowledge in conditioning potable well water. I recommend Vortex Filtration Inc to design build and install their patented Vortex water system to solved all well water conditioning issues. My client had a problem for over tens years prior to the installation of the Vortex system. Once installed, the well water in the holding tank was crystal clear. Thanks Vortex!"

"Initially I set up an appointment to get an estimate for our kitchen. I was informed that there was a fee of 125.00 to come to my home to do that. At first I was a little skeptical, but then it was explained to me that the 125.00 would be included with the cost of the job. I had them come out and the gentlemen that came out were very nice. They did all the measuring and listened to exactly want we wanted to have done. They also made some recommendations on where we should go to look for our flooring and such. They were very courteous and knowledgeable. My husband and I went to the stores that they suggested and I found some beautiful tile. We checked out a few samples to see how they would look with the lighting in our house. We placed the tiles on our floor in different parts of the kitchen to see which one I liked the best. My husband actually left the final decision up to me. I made my decision and called up Spectrum One. We had already purchased our appliances and they had gave us a list of other material that was needed. Once everything was set up, the guys came out to do the job. They were on time and cleaned up after themselves. They were very hard workers and made sure that the job was dust free. Not only did they do an awesome job on my floor, but they also did a beautiful back splash. I was very pleased with the installation of my cabinets. I would definitely refer them to all my family and friends.

"AHS is ok. They cover repairs of most everything under the roof of your house. The companies that contract with them are not always the best. You call AHS with the issue, they send a fax to the repair company and give you the contact info. If they don't contact you within 24 hours, you call them. Sometimes they answer, sometimes they don't. When they arrive (usually three days or so later), they service the item. if it has issues within the 90 days, you call AHS again, they are sent out with no charge. If the serviceman decides the unit is unrepairable, AHS will allow you to choose a replacement from their listing (usually not as good as what you have) they will install and remove your old item, or give you wholesale amount to buy and install your own. Prices vary on what you want covered and what you want the copay to be, plus where you live. For me it is 49.99 per month with a 75.00 time of service order. You can have more than one item serviced at the same time under the same fee. If you have a SEAR product the repair guys are great. Not that wild about the other ones they send out. But it is a big savings compared to calling someone on your own. The cost of service is only the 75.00 copay."

10 years experience half in service and repair work and the other half building commercial buildings or doing commercial tenant improvements. I hold Pro-Pex certification and Counterstrike Trac-Pipe(flexible Gas Pipe) certification while working in the area for over 20 years. I went to Granite Bay high school and have built great relationships with customers and suppliers over those years. I hold multiple commercial purchasing accounts with suppliers to enable me to purchase materials at the lowest Price and Best Quality. My company works locally and remains completely honest and straightforward so you get the best install and equipment at the lowest cost.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

It’s one thing that helps, alongside vinegar and baking soda. Ice acts as an exfoliant, helping to lift off any bits of food stuck on the disposal blades.

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly.
