In some cases we can help you right now! If not, we will schedule an appointment that fits your schedule. If you receive our answering service, please leave us a message. We will call you back as soon as possible. Domestic Based Support. Our company is based right here in the United States and all of our technicians speak clear, fluent English. Safe Interaction. By using our online support center, no one has to come out to your home to fix your computer. That means no strangers in your home and you don’t even have to get dressed, if you don’t want to. Extremely Affordable & Convenient. Unhooking your computer, dragging it out to the car, then driving to the store and dragging in there and waiting for weeks to get it back and then pay hundreds of dollars for such fantastic service. That’s the typical experience for most users. Most Issues are software based. In our experience. 85% of user’s problems are either software or operating system problems due to bugs, worms, virus’, Trojans, malware, grayware or spyware related. As long as your computer turns on and has an internet connection, we can probably solve your issue. If we find that your issue is a hardware issue, we will recommend a trusted, local support company to help you further, if possible.

PARR Lumber Company was established in 1930 by Dwight Parr Sr., in the Pacific Northwest and remains a locally owned family business today. Headquartered in Hillsboro, Oregon, Parr is ranked as the nation's 16th largest building materials supplier. We are a leading supplier of lumber, building supplies, decking, fencing, panels, cabinets, windows, doors, and countertops. Parr proudly operates 44 Oregon and Washington facilities, including pro/retail building material yards, contractor-focused facilities, and cabinet outlets. Visit your nearest store for quotes, delivery, and phone order.

"Avoid Parr lumber entirely, Parr lumber company has always had the worst service possible, I am a larger company that has been in this industry for 38 years. There is not enough space here for me to explain how bad Parr is. From flat out rude at the counter to yard workers telling our guys to load their own material, answering the phone with a "What the F do you want!! Telling us that we are unreasonable for expecting Parr to give us exactly what we paid for, example we ordered black window and doors on a project, they sent white with many pieces broken, their esponse was we can paint them for you and give you a small credit for the broken windows and when I declined that ridiculous offer they got mad and tried blaming us for their mistake, weeks later we still do not have the very expensive windows and doors that I have paid for and Parr is not trying to be helpful at all in Fact they are going out of their way to be overly rude and refusing to give us information on the reorder of product that we paid for long ago. I buy approx. 400K in windows a year although I do not buy lumber Parr I gave them a shot at our window and door business and it was a huge mistake. Our company and our employees will never ever do business with Parr. Parr acts like a bully and their management backs that up, An area manager name Levi told me personally they could care less about our business, he was upset that I told him about their bad service and that we spend a million plus dollars at the best lumber company in town - Pacific Lumber Co. These facts are not something new this has been Parr's MO for the past 20 years and unfortunately it has gotten worse. Levi the Manager reminded me that Parr is a giant in this area without apology which was more of a threat then a fact. Parr does not exemplify the NW well at all. Stop shopping at Parr Lumber, notable mention for the absolute worst attitude and service is Jim Noblet at the 185th Parr store along with area manager Levi who refused to give his last name which is always a bad sign."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

While diesel is relatively stable, it won’t last nearly as long as propane and you may have to replace it if it sits unused for too long. Diesel can sometimes struggle to work efficiently or start engines during especially cold weather, so it’s not the best choice for every climate. Compared to fuels like propane and natural gas, diesel generators tend to be noisier and create more exhaust, which isn’t always ideal for home use.

To reduce AC startup power for a whole-house generator, install a soft start kit or hard start capacitor, which lowers the initial surge by gradually ramping up the compressor. Using a smart load manager can also help by staggering startup loads, preventing a system overload and future costly repairs.

It is safe to run a generator continuously, but you must follow safety protocols to ensure personal and home safety. Read the manufacturer’s instructions for specific recommendations, but the general recommendation is to turn generators off overnight or when you’re away from the house. Overworked generators can pose a fire hazard and if your generator is not in a well-ventilated area, running it continuously could lead to carbon monoxide poisoning.

A home that is 2,500 square feet will likely need a 20kW to 25kW generator. Consult your local generator installer to confirm the generator size needed to power your home before purchasing a new one. Be sure to consider how much power your necessary devices need to run.

As long as they have enough fuel, whole-house generators can run for weeks at a time (400 to 500 hours) without suffering too much wear and tear. However, this type of extensive use isn’t ideal if you want to extend the life of your generator.

Two important points. First, some generators may need you to periodically check oil levels every day or so and refill as necessary for safe operation. Second, if your generator uses a fuel tank, keep it regularly full so it doesn’t suddenly shut off. Many backup generators can run through a full tank in a day when they are powering large portions of a home.
