Turn Up The Fun For the Summer

Turn up the fun and turn down the heat this summer
(ARA) – Shirt sleeves are getting shorter and the days are getting longer, which can only mean one thing – summer is just around the corner. No matter how many fun summer activities you have planned for your family, as the summer wears on, you will eventually hear two things from your children: “I’m hot” and “I’m bored.”

“Not this year!” says television personality and mom to seven children Hannah Keeley. Here are a few of Keeley’s favorite ways to keep your family entertained and the heat at bay this summer.

Go around the world. Take your family on a world tour from the comfort of your very own home. Each week throughout the summer, pick a new country to learn about as a family. Watch a documentary about the location, do some cultural research online or check out travel books from the library. At the end of the week, prepare a meal from the family’s selected country. This is also a great way to keep your kids’ brain cells firing once school is out.

Make a water park. On hot summer days, the Keeley family likes to build their very own water park – at home – using a tarp, sprinkler and their playground slide. Create your own backyard water park using items you already have at home and in your yard. Point a sprinkler at the swing set, run the hose down a slide or fill an inflatable kiddie pool. Add a few water toys such as rubber ducks, plastic cups or even water balloons and watch as your kids stay entertained for days.

Have a family slumber party. Drag out the sleeping bags, pop some corn and get the whole family involved in an all-night party. The kids will love to hear funny stories about when their parents (or grandparents) were young and you can treat your family to instant s’mores, even without a campfire. Just stick a marshmallow on top of a graham cracker and microwave it for 30 seconds. Add some chocolate, top it with another graham cracker and you’re in business.

Stay cool. Families tend to escape the heat by spending more time indoors, so it’s important to have your air conditioning system checked out now before the summer heat makes its grand entrance. If your system is on the fritz, ask your local air conditioner dealer about a new energy-efficient air conditioner. The Allegiance (R) 15 Air Conditioner by American Standard Heating & Air Conditioning can help you save up to 47 percent on your heating and cooling costs and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Saving money and doing something good for the environment – two great ideas to add to your family’s summer to-do list.

Quick tips for eliminating morning madness

Calling all moms: eliminate morning madness
(Courtesy of ARA) – Every mom knows that the only thing to expect in the morning is the unexpected. Between finding time for a shower, getting the kids’ teeth brushed and keeping the dog from drinking out of the toilet, morning madness begins in the bathroom for many busy moms.  According to a recent Scrubbing Bubbles survey, 81 percent of women begin multitasking right from the start, with eight in 10 admitting to multi-tasking more now than ever before.

“As a mom of two, I know the difficulties of trying to juggle everything in the morning,” says Janice Croze, founder of 5 Minutes for Mom. “Like many women, I start my mental to-do list as soon as I step into the shower, so the last thing I want to look at is a dirty bathroom. By utilizing tools that work hard for me and employing some organizational skills, my mornings run smoother.”

Croze is partnering with Scrubbing Bubbles to offer moms a few simple tips to minimize morning madness:

* Prepare in advance – Make the extra effort to prepare lunches the night before for the kids to grab on their way out the door to school. You can also use the time to start prepping something easy for breakfast, like pancake or muffin batter.

* Turn morning hassles into nighttime fun – Picking out outfits is another night-before activity that can cut down on chaos in the morning. Try making it into a ritual after homework and before bed. If your kids are budding fashionistas, let them help choose what you’ll wear, too.

* Choose cleaning solutions that work overtime – Avoid looking around your house and adding cleaning to your worries by finding products that work harder for you. For example, new Scrubbing Bubbles Extend-A-Clean Power Sprayer has active cleaners that keep your bathroom surfaces clean for days. So, there’s one less thing on your to-do list for the day.

* De-clutter as you go – Don’t let a mess pile up in the kitchen sink after every meal. Be proactive – leave the dishwasher open and empty, directing everyone to put their dishes in when they’re done eating.

* Teamwork, teamwork, teamwork – Team up with your family members to make sure that everyone has what they need as they go out the door, from completed homework and lunch bags to gym clothes and cell phones.

Making a night-before effort, finding products that work harder for you, and staying organized will cut down on unnecessary chaos in the mornings. To find more tips to help you minimize your morning madness visit www.5minutesformom.com or www.scrubbingbubbles.com.

Canton home inspection testimonial

Here is a great testimonial from a couple who needed a Canton Home Inspection.   

My wife and I are finally buying our first home. As you can imagine, this is a major source of anxiety for us. I contacted IHI Home Inspections not really knowing what to expect from the home inspection process and was completely blown away. My step-daughter’s father told us of his home buying experience, about how his home inspector spent about 45 minutes to an hour going over the place. David came out yesterday morning and spent five and a half hours going over every single detail, documented and photographed everything, went at our speed in explaining his findings and left me, as a husband and father, with a considerable boost in my peace of mind making such a large investment for my family. David was completely professional, friendly, and genuinely concerned about our needs. He spent considerable time ensuring that we knew exactly what we were getting, from the minor, cosmetic issues to the more serious, “dig in your heels” type problems. I cannot recommend IHI Home Inspections highly enough. I simply do not have the words to express, not only my satisfaction, but how deeply impressed I am with the level of service I received. My only regret is that I couldn’t post this last night. When I was a younger man, working in sales (which I was terrible at, by the way), my sales manager once told me that if you make a customer happy they may tell one or two people but if you make them mad they’ll tell everybody that will stand still and listen to them for more than 3 minutes. I want to turn that around and tell everyone that I can get to listen to me just how happy I am that I chose IHI Home Inspections.  And I want to spread the word to others that want a thorough and reliable report on the biggest investment many of us will ever make.

January is National Radon Action Month by Atlanta home inspector.

As an Atlanta home inspector, we like to try and keep people informed about health and safety issues.  We wanted to take a moment and let you know that January is the month that Organizations like the Environmental Protection agency gears up to promote awareness of the dangers of Radon gas.  Most people don’t know about radon gas and some of those that do know about radon don’t really know that much.  I have been amazed to find out that two homes in the very same neighborhood can have very different readings.  One home can be tested and have very low readings.  Which is anything below 4 pCi/L.  And the house next door can have a high reading of 13 pCi/L.  We have actually ran across these exact circumstances.  It also has nothing to do with the size or the age of the home.  Being a brand new home does not protect you from having radon gas in your home. 

The EPA recommends that any home that has a reading of over 4 pCi/L have a radon mitigation company come out and install a radon mitigation system in the home. 

Another thing that I want to point out is that not all radon mitigation companies are the same, of course this should go without saying, but you would still be surprised.  We recently had a home test very high, above 30 pCi/L and they called a guy that we recommend simply because we have seen his work and he does a quality job for a competitive price.  When we retested the test came back with a 1.3 pCi/L and the client was very happy.  I would also be a little hesitant to use a company that does both radon testing and radon mitigation.

We got called by another client who had a builder installed radon system and we ended up providing them a radon test. Now they had this radon mitigation system installed right at 1 year, and when we got the test results back it was reading above 8 pCi/L.  Make sure that if you have a system installed to come back and have a retest done preferably by someone other than the builder or installer. 

We recommend that when you get a radon test done, that you chose to have a 48 hour continuous test preformed.  This means that someone will come in and set up a continuous monitor, the monitor will take a reading every hour and record it.  It then will give you the average at the end of the 48 hour period. 

Now with all that said and done, I want to encourage you to call us today at 404-788-2581 to set up your radon testing.  The Atlanta home inspector, David Lelak of IHI Home Inspections,  serves Canton, Alpharetta, Roswell, Cumming, Woodstock, Atlanta and all of North Georgia. Call us today at 404-788-2581 for a radon test, we help you protect those you lave against the harmful effects of Radon gas.
