How is pipe insulation similar to a Power Miser?

Monday, November 26th, 2012

How is pipe insulation similar to a Power Miser?

We can explain how pipe insulation is similar to a Power miser rather easily:

We all know that pipe insulation is purchased then wrapped around the hot water pipes in a home in order to keep the hot water lines insulated so the water does not cool down as fast when it travels through the pipe to the sinks in your home. The result is saving energy and saving money.

A Power Miser is similar in that it also is purchased and installed in the home. The Power Miser helps the home become more efficient with regards to the electricity that is being used. The result, again, is saving energy and saving money.

Now both the pipe insulation and Power Miser are working in the home, however, we cannot actually see them working but we know that they are working 24/7 to save us energy and money.

Now that we are discussing pipe insulation and Power Misers’, We suggest after you purchase a Power Miser get some pipe insulation and install them both to save more money. We have to apologize, we do not supply pipe insulation.

Healthy Homes Need Surge Protection

Friday, January 13th, 2012

Whole house surge protection seems to be the wave of the future, and the now. We have so many electronic devices in our homes that it is increasingly more dangerous to go without some sort of surge protection. At the cost of a whole house surge protection it only makes sense to get one installed. If you were to burn out one computer in your home the cost of replacement would beat the cost of a whole house surge protector.

During my research on this topic, I found an article in Computer Link Magazine ( a local Rochester, NY based magazine) on the whole house surge protection offered by http://pmcecosupply.com here it is: http://www.techny.com/2011/04/power-miser-device-protects-your-electronics-from-surges-reduces-energy-consumption/

Furthering my research, I found that joules is a term used to measure the amount of surge protection of a surge protection device. I know that the local Rochester, NY company PMC eco Supply, LLC supplies the Power Miser product which rates each whole house surge protector at 2000 joules.

Another interesting fact after interviewing customers who have the Power Miser whole house surge protection devices is that customers notice they do not burn out light bulbs in the home as much. This particualry pertains to customers who have had a persistent problem of burning out light bulbs frequently. We think this is a fascinating benefit to learn about.

PMC eco Supply, LLC now ships the Power Miser whole house surge protection device all over the country. They are priced at $299.00 Get one today to protect your valuables at http://www.pmcecosupply.com

Do you think you need a bigger hot water tank? Think Again!

Wednesday, December 7th, 2011

I have heard, over the years, when talking to people about home improvements or making their homes healthy by saving money that they need a larger hot water tank. Well, I am going to address it real easily in this article.

The answer to that is – No you do not need a larger hot water tank. If you are running out of hot water and only 2 people have taken a shower, then there is a problem. One reason is that one or both of the people have taken an extremely long shower or the shower head that is in the home is dumping out too much water.

A simple solution to both of the above reasons is to visit your nearest hardware store or visit Healthy Homes of Rochester’s products page and select a high efficiency, low flow shower head. It is a simple replacement and not expensive. I think you can get one for under ten dollars.

I know plenty of you will say that they do not give off enough water to take a shower. I am telling you that they do give off enough water and at the same time conserve a bunch of your water. Replacing the shower head with a low flow, high efficiency shower head will reduce the cost of your water bill and the cost to heat the hot water at the same time. Changing the shower head will also cut electric costs if you live in an area where you are on a well. The well pump will not have to turn on as much. What a bargain that is. The shower head will pay for itself within the year.

Most low flow, high efficiency shower heads only dispense 1.5 gallons of water per minute. This is compared to the original 2.5 gallons per minute or more depending on the style.

I think this is a great place to start when going green and saving money.

Proof of Power Savings with a Power Miser

Saturday, December 3rd, 2011

Kilowatt Chart

It seems there is a lot of controversy regarding Power Miser electric saving device. Since most are not familiar with the power saving Power Miser product the general public does not know if the devices work.

With that in mind we thought we would do some testing with a Power Miser. The idea was to get some monitoring equipment set up in a home to watch what was actually going on with the electric at any given moment. We did just that.

The electric monitoring equipment was installed and set up properly where we could see via web browser on a graph the actual real time kilowatts on the home.

Then the real test for the Power Miser performance was upon us. We tried to simplify our test so that it was easy to understand and plane as day. We turned the breaker at the main circuit panel for the Power Miser OFF. Then we turned on the electric dryer for exactly 1 minute. Next, we turned the breaker to the Power Miser back ON and ran the electric dryer for exactly 1 minute again.

All this was captured on our electric monitoring equipment which we took a screen print of at that time. The picture above shows exactly what we captured. To explain, the red line is volts which stays pretty much at 120. The blue line is Kilowatts. That line you can see 2 rather obvious spikes. The first spike is going to 7.2 kilowatts. This one is with the dryer on and the Power Miser OFF. The second spike goes only to 5 kilowatts. This one is with the dryer on and the Power Miser ON. Amazingly we have visual proof of the Power Miser power saver or electric saver working. The difference between the two is about a 25% change in electric consumption. It is invaluable data which helps answer the question “does it work?”. We say: “Yes it does”.

Whole House Surge Protection

The Power Miser

We all want to protect our valuable home theater electronics, computers and appliances from the risk of lightning strike, power surge, or a brownout. Most of us use power surge strips to protect our valuable electronics. Most of us don’t run our home’s appliances (washer/dryer, refrigerator, sump pump, etc.) through any kind of surge protector, which, if a destructive surge were to occur, could zap them out of commission. There goes a lot of money down the drain should you suffer from this happening and you having to replace these appliances.

In addition to whole house surge protection for your home, the ‘Power Miser’ device’s main selling feature is its technology, which reduces your home or business’s electricity consumption from the utility, lowering your electrical bill by up to 25% each month, while also helping the environment.

The Power Miser unit gets professionally installed between your electrical meter and circuit breaker box. The technology behind the Power Miser unit is in its capacitors, which store electricity for use within your home or business. Appliances, especially those with inductive motors (such as air conditioning units, furnaces, refrigerators, freezers, dishwashers, washer and dryers, pool pumps, vacuum cleaners, hair dryers, and so on) drawing power straight from your meter is many times an inefficient process, wasting a good deal of electricity. The Power Miser’s technology supplies stored electricity to your appliances and electronics, reducing your demand from the utility. In doing so, your meter slows down and you use considerably less electricity. This causes you to have a considerable decrease in your electricity bill from your utility, and helps conserve the environment.

Power Miser is a no-risk decision to whole house surge protection and energy savings for residents and businesses.

Since having a Power Miser installed in my home for the purpose of saving energy, going green, and, whole house surge protection, I have found I do not blow out light bulbs any longer. It never occurred to me that this Power Miser devise would save my light bulbs, but it does! I used to have to replace about 4 light bulbs per month. Since the Power Miser has been installed I have not replaced one. Amazing results which were not expected.

Contact http://www.pmcecosupply.com for your own whole house surge protector and save money while doing so. Prices start at $299.00

Power Saving Technology Has Gone To A New Level

Wednesday, November 16th, 2011

Power Miser software interface

I have been one of the first to test a “state of the art”, new technology. It is called an automatically controlled Power Miser by PMC eco Supply, LLC.

This product installs in a home or small business to cut the electric consumption of the home or building. It typically saves about 10 to 25 percent. The Power Miser is best installed by an electrician. The Power Miser is made of capacitors which are computer controlled to automatically adjust to the load in the building at any given time. They actually turn off when there is nothing running in the home.

We have tested one with great results. The best part is that the Power Miser comes with software and Bluetooth ready to send the live data of the electrical system right to your computer! There is no other technology like this on the market. The retail price is $1400.00 but for saving money and monitoring your home, we think that is a great product. I would suggest contacting http://www.pmcecosupply.com and getting on the list to order one of these. The new Power Miser is on back order due to the demand. There is about a 3 week turn around to getting the product.

We love when a local Rochester, NY company has a great new innovative product.

Black Streaks On Roof – It’s Actually Mold!

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

After

Before

Q. What Are Those Streaks on My Roof? And How Do I Get Rid of Them?

A: The “black streaks” or “stains” that appear on your roof are living organisms that are feeding off of your asphalt roof! Eating your roof alive, literally!

by Ryan Morse,
Founder, NYS Metal Roof Co-Op

Roof stains are sweeping the country in alarming proportion. Until recently most of us thought this to be purely cosmetic.

This however is not the case. The stains that appear on your roof are living organisms (Gloeocapsa magma -a type of blue-green algae and fungi – MOLD). These organisms feed on the base of the shingle (primarily the limestone filler) causing the reflective ceramic granules to loosen and end up in your gutter.

As these granules ‘disappear’ you will notice as rise in your homes utility bills. Unable to effectively reflect the suns rays away from your home in summer your air conditioner will find itself working overtime to keep your house cool.

The black streaks also absorb and hold heat to your roofs surface. In winter your heating bill will inch upward as the shingles are less likely to retain the heat in your home as they did when they were new.

If the area of growth is left untreated the stains will spread causing more issues!

An infected roof not only reduces your homes curb-appeal and property value but can also have an adverse effect on the occupant’s respiratory system.

Asphalt roofs in climates with warm, humid summers like ROCHESTER are largely affected. The spores on the northern exposure of the roof stand a better chance of survival because that portion of the roof is the last part to dry after rain or morning dew. This raises the humidity on the surface of the shingle, thus creating a perfect breeding and feeding ground.

The algae spores are carried to our roofs from water sources by the wind and birds, and then from roof to roof where it grows and feeds on the limestone filler in asphalt shingles.

Shingle manufactures changed from all asphalt to fiberglass shingles some time ago. The limestone in the fiberglass shingles which, is added for weight, attracts the bacteria and begins to spread.

The tar used in roofing is fossilized, dead organic matter — and an important food source for fungi. Asphalt, at the granule base, is normally consumed first. Once these granules dislodge, accelerated deterioration will occur. Ceramic granules represent the outer hard shell that protects against hail and other falling debris. Ceramic granules protect against damaging UV radiation and insulate the roof against extreme heat. So you can understand that their dislodgement by the growing fungal colonies can be detrimental to our roofs’ longevity.

As I mentioned, the “dark stains” on a roof act as a sponge to absorb the sun’s heat, which causes a rise in the temperature inside a home or building, creating higher air conditioning bills.

The spores, which are on your roof, can get inside your home because they end up on the driveway and walkways from rain, and are easily tracked inside. They can even be drawn into our air conditioning systems and eventually populate our ducts.

After 9 years of research and testing, ROOF REVIVER(TM) Roof Cleaner has become the finest product in America for treating roofs infected with algae and fungi.

Here’s why Roof Reviver(TM) is your best choice:
