BY GINNY RAUE Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. Henry Ford

WEST MILFORD Wayne and Diane Morrissey appear to be living according to Henry Fords words. Married for 33 years this month, the couple has shared the workload and success of a business partnership for 27 of those years, as well.

The Morrisseys have resided in West Milford for 33 years, raising their family, enjoying life in the township and operating Morrissey Overhead Garage Doors from their home. They are the parents of three daughters and grandparents of one little one with another expected any day now.

Wayne Morrissey wears many hats, quite literally. Besides being a husband, father, grandpa and business owner, he has been a firefighter with West Milford Volunteer Fire Co. #6 for 27 years, serving as chief for the last five years. He has also been a West Milford Police Department Special Officer for 16 years, working special events and traffic and crowd control.

On the job Morrissey, 56, learned everything he knows from his father-in-law, a garage door business owner. He was employed in technology at the Meadowlands and working part-time with Dianes father when he decided to take the plunge and open his own business.

I enjoyed the work so I figured Id try it, Id be better with my own business. It was a big jump and Diane and I did it together, he said.

As it has turned out, it was a good move.

Its been phenomenal. When I first started out the business was in West Milford, now Im in five counties. Its grown nicely and Diane and I get along great in business. What she doesnt do, I do, and vice-versa.

Houston, TX (PRWEB) September 18, 2014

Custom Air Products & Services, Inc. (CAPS), a leading commercial and industrial heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) company based in Houston, Texas (US) is proud to celebrate the Service Divisions fourth consecutive record breaking month.

CAPS is comprised of three divisions, each with their own specific focus and capabilities: Fabrication and Manufacturing, Mechanical Field Services and Service. The HVAC Service Division provides on-site emergency service and repair, renovation, retrofit and maintenance for all types of heating, ventilation, air conditioning, refrigeration, controls and plumbing systems. They provide services at commercial and industrial facilities all throughout Texas. The Service Department also supports the proper and smooth start-up of new prefabricated equipment manufactured in-house.

Its no wonder why the department has received as many service calls as they have these past four months: with the temperature averaging above ninety degrees all summer in Houston, the heat has taken quite a toll on industrial plants and commercial businesses. Allan Taylor, CAPS Testing Manager says: what we do is more than just provide comfort cooling. For some companies, they cannot continue to function without AC. We are keeping them in business and from losing, sometimes, thousands of dollars.

CAPS dedicated inside sales estimators are an extreme advantage to the department. The estimators focus primarily on providing their customers with more timely repair options to minimize their down time. In addition to keeping repair costs down, it is their goal to extend the life of the equipment. Estimates can be given while technicians are on the job and can have a turnaround of as quickly as one hour.

Along with the sweltering months, our business is changing says Corrie Haines, Service Operations Manager: We are moving to an international market and have a global customer base now. With several new start-up units in the Middle East and Russia, CAPS service technicians are busy supporting their tremendously growing customer base.

Taylor Norris, CEO, has confidence that the service division will break even more records in the future, but is aware there is always room for improvement: With the changing environment and the expansion of our customer base, a continued growth in our controls sector is necessary to meet the needs going forward for our client base.

Custom Air Products & Services, Inc. Breaks Service Department Record for Fourth Consecutive Month

SAN DIEGO - Wednesday marks the fifth day of a heat wave that has scorched San Diego County, and while many are getting by without air conditioning, 10News spoke to some San Diegans trying to beat the heat without electricity.

In the Talmadge area on Wednesday afternoon, 10News found resident Sue Hirsch returning from El Cajon, where she spent some time in an air-conditioned mall. She chose to leave the house in the morning after enduring 17 hours with no A/C or fan. She came back a couple of hours later to find her power had been restored.

"Oh lord, we finally have some power," said Hirsch.

She couldn't wait to turn on her fans and turn up the air conditioner after a long, hot night.

"It was terrible. It was just absolutely humid," added Hirsch.

It didn't take long for the morning to heat up. At a North Park elementary school, a parent snapped a shot of a thermometer in her son's classroom and sent it in to 10News. It showed 95 degrees at 9 a.m.

In the Broadway Heights area, off state Route 94, there was frustration among residents because they experienced a power outage Monday night, and then again on Tuesday. Yet, none of the heavy rain or strong winds on Tuesday afternoon came through their neighborhood.

"I couldn't sleep, and now I have meat in the deep freeze. I have meat in the refrigerator and everything is going bad," said resident Debbie Tucker.

"We've got hundreds of dollars of food that's gone spoiled," added resident Angela Murrell.

Resident Patricia Baker checked on her elderly mother, who lived in another part of the neighborhood.

Reno Heating and Furnace Repair Company, 4 Seasons Heating & Cooling, Announces New Discount on Reno Furnace Tune-Ups ...

CEDAR RAPIDS The $90 million redevelopment of Westdale Mall has shifted into high gear with a combination of exterior and interior activity.

Frew Development and city officials broke ground Friday for the 10-year project, which will include retail, commercial, office, entertainment, residential, hotel, green space and connecting trails.

The Cedar Rapids City Council agreed to provide $5 million in upfront money for Westdale and will recoup the money from tax-incentive revenue that comes with the added value of the redevelopment.

John Frew, president of Frew Development Group in Denver, Colo., on Friday said seven pad sites along the Edgewood Road SW side of the property have been sold. He confirmed that Chick-fil-A and U.S. Bank will occupy two of the sites, but he declined to identify the remaining buyers.

Chick-fil-A, an original tenant of Westdales in 1979, has been constructing stand-alone buildings with drive-up windows, similar to its Lindale Mall venue, as part of its current business model.

U.S. Bank is relocating to Westdale because the building housing its existing office at 2350 Edgewood Rd. SW was acquired by F&M Bank of Manchester, which has offices in northeast and downtown Cedar Rapids.

Airtight, watertight

Leading up to Fridays groundbreaking were a series of actions most behind the scenes required to prepare for demolition of the main portion of the mall.

Construction of three semi-permanent walls separating the main portion of the mall from JCPenney, Younkers and the former Von Maur building began weeks ago and is progressing rapidly, according to Lisa Rowe, vice president-retail for Frew Development Group and Westdales general manager.

Forget a downloadable app. This must-have homeowner gadget will automatically text you when theres trouble with your home a/c or furnace filter.

The new air filter monitor sends email or text alerts* to your smartphone, tablet or desktop computer when the filter becomes clogged so you can enjoy cleaner air, lower electric bills and an efficiently operating HVAC system.

Energy Savings: Just like your automobiles gas gauge, the CleanAlert FILTERSCAN WiFi shows how much cleaning power remains in your homes air filter. Using patented differential pressure technology to actively measure a filters capacity, the $99 wireless unit takes the guesswork out of this important household chore and helps save up to $300 in annual energy savings.

Download our Home Energy Savings Checklist and discover how to save money and conserve energy.

Health Benefits: Most of us spend the majority of our time indoors. Ironically, thats where allergens, mold and other irritants are most at home. In fact, the EPA finds that pollutant levels can be two to five times higher inside our homes than outside. Besides undercutting system efficiency, a clogged air filter can make homeowners feel sick, too, especially family members with allergy and asthmatic issues.

A well-maintained HVAC system air filter keeps the air your family breathes clean, says Terry L. Reavis, Vice President Sales & Marketing for CleanAlert, known for its innovative airflow-sensing solutions.

As an air filter becomes clogged with dirt, dust, pet dander and other particles, the HVAC system will all too efficiently recirculate these pollutants into every corner of the home. By installing a FILTERSCAN WiFi Air Filter Monitor, homeowners will enjoy cleaner air, while maintaining system efficiency.

Scientific Approach: The FILTERSCAN takes a scientific approach to maximizing a homes air quality by monitoring the change in pressure while an air filter is in use. Timely replacement has a dual benefit by ensuring the filter is replaced neither too soon nor too late.

Wait too long and the heating or cooling system not only loses efficiency and wastes energy but could also need expensive repairs.

The way things act in this universe we inhabit, when anything except water is heated it swells up and shrinks when cooled. This constant movement results in lots of problems. When metal is bent, for example, after a number of flexings fatigue results in breakage. Wings can fall of airplanes, studs snap and wheels come off trucks. Both can be deadly.

Water swells when heated, shrinks when cooled, but a few degrees below freezing ice swells again. This is lucky in that if ice didn't float, in time the lakes and seas would be solid ice. It's not so lucky when ice is inside pipes, in crevices between bricks and pavement for example. It has power to split the strongest materials. This is why we are forever having to detour in summer while bridges, culverts and pavement are being replaced.

The gully washers we've been experiencing lately have been flooding basements through holes that metal fatigue, ice-split shingles and concrete walls have left.

Shingles are destroyed both by ice and by the buckling between nails or staples when the sun heats them. This opens mouth-like spaces which lets wind push rainwater up over the top edge of shingles. Depending on the slope and shapes of under-roof construction, water can find its way to places to drip that ruin ceilings leaving no hint of where the leak may be found. Often it falls right onto your bed.

For several months every heavy rain has tripped the ground fault breaker that protects people from being electrocuted in the gazebo or by the fish pond and security light in the back yard. When the water started flooding into the outdoor cellarway and down to the floor of the cold room, it offered a clue to locate the weak spot in the electrical circuit. Son Mike who has the most experience in things electrical advised looking in the box of the receptacle that's on the wall just above the concrete slab surrounding the trap door. He was right. The box was half full of soggy porridge-like gasket material. The dissolved gasket let water at the receptacle, rusting screws, etc.

I called on son David, he with the most experience in gasketry and caulking, to fix the problem. Gentle rain had no effect on the repair, but the next gully washer killed the circuit.

Examining the situation from inside the cellarway, we saw that the seasonal heating and cooling had broken the mortar and silicone all along the junction of the concrete top and the brick walls. Furthermore, the vent for the gas fireplace exits up through the concrete top tight to the brick wall. I had used black-coated ten test as a cushion for expansion of the metal housing. Over the years it had done the same as the gasketry in the electrical box, rotted to mush.

David used his air compressor to clean the decayed vegetation, chips of mortar and sundry debris before filling voids with hydraulic cement and replacing rotten ten test with modern backer material. I was watching him inject silicone over this material when a movement caught my eye.

It was an earthworm no thicker than a bit of string and just over an inch long throwing itself like a miniature sidewinder across the hot concrete. It must have been snug in a crevice filled with damp humus until the blast of compressed air ruined its home. If it had a voice it would have been expressing outrage like Robert Burns' wee mouse, and probably screaming as the sun and hot concrete reduced it to a bit of leather.

It was headed across the desert instead of toward the near edge where it would fall into the shade of ferns. Knowing my blunt fingers would kill it if I tried to pick it up, I nudged it toward safety. It coiled instantly into a writhing knot. That let me get it to the cliff with a couple of feather-light sweeps. It vanished among the fronds, still able, I hoped, to recover from its desiccation.
