Freedom Dog Fence is an electronic dog fencing system that is installed underground by burying a single wire as a complete loop along the entire perimeter of your property. This underground boundary can also include or exclude certain portions of your yard, such as a pool or garden. Your dog is safely contained within your yard and allowed to roam free with sections of your yard blocked to keep your garden and landscaping safe. Your dog can even be trained to stay out of your pool! Dogs live to run free, and keeping your dog safe in your yard gives you both the freedom to relax when you are outside.

"Excellent repair job with absolutely no complaints. This review is after posting a 3 star review a few days ago for not returning my phone calls. I was contacted on Monday and given an apology with explanation that the company had been short staffed and had tried to contact me earlier, apparently the call going to my Spam box. On 12-14-22, Tyler arrived at 11 AM and immediately went to work to locate the trouble with my underground dog fence. Apparently several breaks were located and repaired, about a 2 hour job. Tyler was very professional and apologetic for not getting out sooner and reduced my service bill by 50% for any inconvenience experienced. I tried to remove the earlier comments posted a few days back but was unsuccessful, thus this new review. Outstanding and pleased with the repair."

"We had a new AC unit installed approx 5 years ago by a different company. The unit stopped cooling so I reached out to our home warranty company that arranged for Wilson Heating & Air to come out. Upon arrival, it took Scott and Brandon about 5 minutes to identify that the new unit that was installed has a known defect which causes the coolant to leak out so they suggested we try and do a warranty replacement for the defective part. Understanding this process might take a bit of time (and the fact our upstairs was hovering in the mid 80s), they went ahead and refilled the coolant to get us up and running. Replacing the coolant was an additional cost as the home warranty program only covers a portion so the concern was that the new coolant would leak out. They couldn't know for sure but thought it would probably be ok and that the leak was probably small. Fast forward one week and the process to get the new part covered under warranty is still in process but all of the coolant leaked out so the house returned to the mid 80s. Very uncomfortable and we were looking at temps in the 90s heading into the weekend. I called Wilson H&A and explained the situation and even though Scott & Brandon were out on calls all day outside the area, they swung by at the end of their day to make sure they could get us back up and running for the upcoming hot weekend. Understanding that I had already paid to have the coolant replaced once and the fact that it had leaked much more quickly than expected, they took care of the cost of the second refill. I couldn't be happier with the way Wilson A & H has handled this entire transaction so far. Their team is clearly knowledgeable, strives to do the right thing, and has demonstrated a willingness to go above and beyond to take care of their customers. I hardly ever take the time to write reviews, but in this case I felt this company deserved to receive recognition for their effort. Thank you Wilson Heating and Air and Thank you to Scott & Brandon for your professionalism and service."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

Leaving vents open but closing doors in unused rooms will probably not save money on your energy bill. Closed doors prevent the natural flow of air throughout the home, which could reduce the efficiency of the overall HVAC system. They could also restrict airflow into and through the return vents, making the HVAC system less efficient.

Dryers are designed to use as little electricity as possible, but power is still required to run the motor that turns the drum and to heat an element that pumps hot air. Eco devices are available and may lead to cost savings in the long term, but you should run the figures before committing to an eco-friendly device as they are often much more expensive to purchase.

You can determine what size generator you need by listing the various appliances it will power during an outage. Write down the start-up watt usage, and then add them all together. 

A 7,500-watt generator will run your refrigerator, freezer, well pump, and lighting circuits without a problem. However, you’ll need an extra 3,000 to 4,500 watts to run your water heater and another 5,000 to 25,000 watts to run your electric furnace. In these instances, a whole-home generator is your best bet for running your critical equipment.

When combined with a substantial solar system, if you have enough Powerwalls, you could go off-grid and be energy independent. But remember, you'd need enough Powerwalls to power your whole home continuously because a single Powerwall can’t power large appliances for extended periods. One Powerwall is able to power an average-sized home's emergency circuits, lights, and outlets. To power large appliances, you likely need two or three Powerwalls.

Setting your AC unit to 78 degrees can, indeed, help you save energy. In fact, according to experts, every degree you turn the unit up could save you between 1% and 3% on your energy bills. That said, turning your unit off entirely while you’re out might actually be less efficient than keeping it on at a higher temperature. Why? The unit will need to work extra hard to cool the house back off again after all those hot hours.
