Shipper has to make a claim, they will not mark it as lost. Called Appliance Parts Pros twice. Each time they say FedEx has to mark package lost before they will do anything. They also state they have to wait 14 days from them before doing anything because of their contract with FedEx. I don't care about their contract, I want what was ordered and paid for. Just going in circles with them and FedEX. If they shipped after 14 days it would be 22 days from that point, 32 days from the date of order if they shipped it that day.

Simmons Tree and Landscape is a newly established family owned and operated business as of 2015. I have 16 years experience in tree care, we strive to make sure the home owner is satisfied with the quality of care we provide for their trees, in keeping them healthy, safe, and growing for years to come.

"My brand new shed had roof damage after Curt and his crew dropped trees above my shed. Curt claimed that my brand new shed was already damaged when they arrived but he conveniently “forgot” to take pictures. He became very rude with me and even accused me of knowing about the damage ahead of time and that I was just trying to pin it on them. DO NOT HIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Depending on stove type and condition, costs range from $150 to $300.

A fireplace that doesn’t require a chimney is simply called a chimneyless fireplace. Don’t confuse these with ventless fireplaces, however. There are some fireplaces that require ventilation via a system of pipes, not a chimney. More specifically, the fireplace in question will likely be called by its name, such as electric, ethanol, or balanced flue.

The primary disadvantage of a ventless fireplace is that it doesn’t have an exterior venting system. This means that the byproducts from combustion are emitted into your home, which raises some safety concerns. In addition, ventless gas fireplaces produce moisture as they burn—and if there’s no ventilation, you could end up with a mold problem.

The best type of firewood is a locally-sourced hardwood such as oak. While it’s not the least expensive option, oak is found in most parts of the country and doesn't smoke or spark when burned. Other common slow-burning hardwoods, such as hickory, walnut, cherry, and maple, also make excellent firewood.

In some aspects, yes, new wood stoves are better than old ones. For example, today’s EPA emission limits for wood-burning stoves are much lower than they were several decades ago. Stoves that meet these stricter standards produce less air pollution, reduce fire risks, and decrease your risk of inhaling harmful particles.
