Have to give our kids a big shutout during this global crisis we are all living through! They have both shown us incredible resiliency with helping around the house in and out, doing chores without even asking and even taking the initiative to do their own projects!
Our kiddos have grown up their entire lives with their dad and I involved hands on in small, but essential business that isn't just 9 to 5. We are so grateful for their understanding and now this new responsibility we all have.
As we have told our kids for many years, we all learn everyday, regardless if we are in school or not! Life lessons and life learning for the win in our household 🙌 💕🙏 With ample downtime as well! Cause, well this is a new "norm" for all of us and it will have its highs and lows at times and that's ok! ✌ 🥰
Some of these reminders may sound harsh... however we had someone call the office yesterday and thought their sump pump was getting a little old (25 yrs) and since THEY WERE HOME they should have it checked... they were in the middle of the quarantine!!!!! I had to bite my tongue hard from not asking WTF they were thinking and remind them politely that we would NOT be entering their home! I wish I could say they were understanding, unfortunately they weren't. Seriously people take this serious!!!!! I have to think of my guys who have to literally go IN people homes and who have families of their own! If you are under quarantine DO NOT LEAVE YOUR HOUSE OR HAVE ANYONE IN YOUR HOME! Please 🙏🌎💕 ‼A reminder from the Plumber's and HVAC Tech's ‼
With so many being told to STAY HOME to is crucial we all listen AND please remember to be mindful in what we flush! 🚽
Please do NOT flush wipes, paper towels, pads, tampons, diapers down the toilet! The only thing going into your sewer system, town/city sewers or your own septic is human waste and minimal amounts of toilet paper. 🧻
I mention minimal amounts because large amounts of toilet paper, although biodegradable, can cause backups, especially in older pipes if there is any built up residue, potential cracks/breaks or roots! Yes gross 🤢, I know, but it happens!
It's also very important to NOT put grease down the drains either, this provides a surface for paper products to grab onto and a blockage can quickly form! 🔥 As we are still in heating season please ensure your furnace filter has been changed. A dirty filter will cause your system to breakdown and potentially cause damage to parts. Although many of our suppliers will be considered essential there most likely will be a slight delay with parts availability that we should all be prepared for!
If you have family, loved ones with only 1 heat source please consider what a "back up" plan might be - especially if you or they are under quarantine. It is also important to ensure you have back up water supply, especially if on well water if your pump goes down‼
Our business falls into the following category of "essential services" con't in comments.....
