MJH to perform efficient Rinnai hot water retrofit @ the Lincoln, NH Comfort Inn & Suites.

We will soon be installing three high efficient direct vented Rinnai LP gas hot water heaters for the Comfort Inn & Suites in Lincoln, NH. The Rinnais will provide on demand immediate hot water w/out wasting energy heating large tanks of storage water. We have also installed similar Rinnai systems @ the WRJ, VT Hampton Inn & the Lebanon, NH River Valley Club. Thus far, the results have been rewarding.

Be prepared for the 2010 R-22 refrigerant manufacturing phaseout.

By 2010, the common R-22 air conditioning refrigerant will be phased out from production & like old refrigerants, such as R-12, that have already been phased out, will too become quite expensive. The common alternative refrigerant that we have been installing since the later '90s is the chlorine-free R-410A. It is environmentally friendly to the atmosphere & higher in efficiency. All air conditioning system manufacturers are offering R-410A systems.

Retrofitting an R-22 system to an R-410A system is fairly easy, but often times more than just the equipment needs to be replaced. The piping frequently must be replaced too, to facilitate the R-410A system.

Please contact our svc mgr Bruce Battis (bruce@mjhayward.com) or one our estimators John Chaloux (john@mjhayward.com) & Justin Hayward (justin@mjhayward.com) or 603.298.6981 & 603.526.6331 for a free consultation & estimate.

Space heater pose safety concern.

Here is a recent news post from http://www.wcax.com/:


Burlington, Vermont - June 26, 2008
Vermont utilities hope customers won't rely on electric heaters this winter, fearing bills could get out of hand and the heaters could tax the electrical grid. But there's also a safety concern.
The utilities say heaters can pose a fire hazard; they can overheat and should never be left near combustible items. Officials also say to turn the space heaters down when you leave the house or go to bed.
"We really urge people to read the manuals, supervise children," said Steve Costello of Central Vermont Public Service. "They do get hot and easy to knock over and start fires. That's a big issue."
Experts say the best way to keep your home heating costs down is to make sure windows and doors have tight seals and that ceilings and walls are well-insulated.

Breath of fresh air.

The more efficient & tighter homes & commercial spaces are built, the more they need assistance in breathing to provide fresh air to the occupants, eliminate moisture & odors & filter indoor particulates. Heat recovery ventilators (HRVs) & energy recovery ventilators (ERVs) are great solutions to providing fresh air to a space.

The Lennox Humiditrol system is a great component to add-on to your ducted heating & air conditioning system. It is not everday that you need air conditioning, but frequently find your space w/ unwanted humidity. An air conditioning system will not continue to dehumidify your space if it reaches the set temperature on your thermostat but there is high humidity. The Humiditrol continues to operate even if the air conditioning component cycles off to reach your desired relative humidity.
