Swinderman Engineering Services is Central Illinois’ leading Technology Installation Company. We handle all of your low voltage cabling and custom installation needs from Home Theater to Surveillance Camera Systems to Access Control.

"These installers will do a great job with the actually installation. In my case, I wanted to install my antenna's in the attic. After the installation, vhs (particularly PBS) signal did not come in. I followed up to see if an adjustment could be made to try to get pbs. The correspondence got into a couple of minor issues that we disagreed about, but the main point was that i couldn't get pbs. They offered to come install the antenna outside, which i turned down. I called PBS and gave them the antenna model installed. They told me that the problem was likely that the model was designed for UHF. I googled Antenna's Direct and talked to their tech support. They confirmed that the antenna I had was likely the issue with VHF but would be very good for UHF. They suggest that I add a VHF only antenna and a UHF/VHF combiner. They looked up my address and told me exactly where to place the VHF antenna. It took me an hour or so to set up the VHF antenna, run the cable and hook up the combiner. They also directed me to Amazon where I could buy the antenna and combiner I needed. IT WORKED GREAT! All the UHF & VHF channels I need and more. Bottom line is that this company is great on installation. The installer did a very good job and they adjusted my bill for a travel time question. However, they didn't know about the UHF/VHF issue that Antenna's Direct knew about immediately. I would recommend talking to tech support at Antenna's Direct before any installation to ensure the antennas are correct and follow up with Antenna's Direct before deciding on any adjustments or moving the antennas from your preferred location."

I have been involved in trades since the early 1990's. I returned to college, at the age of 32, to earn a degree in trade sciences and received a B.S. in 2005. I am a Jack of all trades so to speak. if I look at a project and don't feel comfortable that I can do a professional job, I will gladly recommend someone that is qualified for free.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

A circuit breaker flipping off when it detects an overloaded circuit isn’t a problem, but flipping the switch frequently can damage it and eventually cause an electrical hazard. If you’re going on a long vacation or leaving your home for the season, you should avoid turning off your circuit breaker to prevent electrical damage to your system.

A 100 amp electrical service panel can't convert into a 200 amp panel simply by switching the breakers or adding circuits. Upgrading from 100 to 200 amps typically requires replacing the circuit box and updating the electrical service coming into the house. Your electrician will handle the details of the project to ensure a safe and thorough installation.

You can test an electric fence with a multimeter, but you’ll need to set the multimeter to the correct voltage measurement—such as alternative current (AC) or direct current (DC) and range—depending on your fence. You can find the voltage type and range in the fence’s user manual.

Most upgrades take 1-5 days, depending on building size and wiring complexity.

Track lighting typically needs to be hardwired, connecting directly to the electrical wiring in your ceiling for a permanent and reliable power source. Hardwiring provides a clean and professional look with no visible cords. However, plug-in track lighting options can be connected to a standard electrical outlet, offering easier installation and flexibility. The choice between hardwired and plug-in track lighting depends on your needs, preferences, and existing electrical setup.
