"Comfort is our specialty...Quality is our method...Satisfying you is our goal".

Scents, Cents, Sense.


     SCENTS:

     Long before aroma therapy, candles, potpourri beads and plug-in air fresheners, people used a variety of home made techniques to scent their homes. I.e.,

     Merry ShermanVinegar is an inexpensive, effective deodorizer. Pour a little vinegar in each of several containers and place them around the room and some unpleasant odors like cigarette smoke, are neutralized.

     Baking soda, cinnamon sticks or cloves, orange peels, unpeeled lemons can all be used to eliminate disagreeable odors.

     • But one man's meat is another man's poison. This old adage, first recorded in 1576, is a not so subtle way of saying “What is good for or enjoyed by one is not necessarily so for someone else”.

     • Today, the most efficient air cleaner is an air purification system. These units are the same size as the OLD style electronic air cleaners; however they clean the air much better in some cases up to 99.98% at .1 micron* and producing little or no ozone. These units offer the homeowner the ability to remove not only dirt and dust** but other household pollutants like bio aerosols, viruses, mold spores, and fungi as well as odors and chemicals like pet odors, perfumes, tobacco smoke and cleaning agents; just to name a few. Up to 72 trillion allergens find their way into your home everyday. In short these new whole home purification devices use very little energy and make your home a healthier environment for you and your family.

          *   1 micron is = to 1/25,000 of an inch in diameter
          ** 1 oz of dust = holds up to 40,000 dust mites

     CENTS:

    * The amount of electricity used by the appliances on the chart are based on average normal use and of course are subject to change as rates increase.  The wattage and efficiency of your appliance may vary. Your use habits and the size of your family could make a difference in your electricity usage and thus the cost.  

     SENSE:

     Then it just Makes Good Sense To…

           1.  Be as comfortable in our homes as our means allow.

           2. Live in as healthy environment as possible…

     …and as Heating & Cooling is the largest energy expense in most homes, accounting for around 50% of annual energy bills, then…

     …reducing your energy use for cooling therefore, not only saves you money but provides the single most effective way to reduce your home’s contribution to global environmental problems (Cooling & Heating systems in the United States spew over a billion tons of CO2 into the atmosphere each year and about 12% of the nation’s sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, come either through direct combustion or from the power plants that provide the electricity).

     How do you “take steps” to save energy? The most basic and simplest way is to be sure your system is operating at maximum efficiency! That (and system safety) is the whole purpose of our famous 40 Point “tune-up/check-up” program, used each year by hundreds of customers as they get ready for summer.

     As we see it, here at Climatemakers, we don't really have any competitors when it comes to getting your system ready for summer. While others may advertise “bargain prices” or abbreviated (10-15 points) services, only Climatemakers has an unequalled 40 Point check up/tune up, that (1) displays each point (2) defines the importance and then (3) posts it on the world wide web for all the world to see. Click here.

     Can we prove that we offer the area's most comprehensive “tune-up” service available (40 points!)? Do we put our money where our mouth is? See for yourself! See in writing, not only the name of each of the 40 points BUT the effect each point has on the performance of your system (and why you should not settle for less) by going to our website. Click here. We believe we are safe in saying, that no other local contractor can match that list!

     For PURELY SELFISH REASONS, and for a strictly limited time (March 15th – May 15th), a substantial seasonal discount on this service is available. We hate to give away so much money, but to date, we haven't been able to devise any other way to persuade people not to wait for the 1st hot day of summer to call…and we need the time to properly prepare the cooling systems for our hundreds of customers before the summer sets in for earnest.

     This makes for both of us a "win-win" situation. We win by getting you to order early (and can do more jobs)...you win, if you order early, by getting a $150 value for a lot less money (and you can save even more if you order on line) as you join hundreds of others who every summer, make Climatemakers their “contractor of choice”.

     BUT THERE ARE ONLY 3 DAYS LEFT for you to take full advantage of this special seasonal discount. Remember, you must order by 03/30/06, to get the full 40% discount PLUS another $5 if you order it on line!

         Order NOW! Save a whopping 40%! (plus an additional $5 for scheduling online).  On line reservations can be made by clicking here. Reservations can also be made by phone. Call: HOT-COLD (468-2653).

     The cost of the "check-up/tune-up" is a small price to pay for superior equipment performance that result in lower energy bills and extended life performance.

     Remember, THE MAJOR CAUSE OF EQUIPMENT FAILURE IS INADEQUATE MAINTENANCE.

While Climatemakers main objective is to provide to our customers, the optimum HVAC services possible, our Help Us Serve You Better!secondary goal is to provide through our website and newsletters the best most complete information available in order that you may be fully informed.

Right now, while it is fresh in your mind, do you have any suggestions as to how we can improve our newsletter, our website or do you have a subject you would like to see discussed in a future newsletter? It’s real simple…just click here. I value the feed back from our customers so highly that I personally read every corporate email and would love to hear from you.
