How We Got Started

Provide me proof that I’m wrong before you once again increase the enormous size of what is supposed to be the ”limited government” in DC. We need working people who produce something, not 87,000 more desk jockeys.

Chasing money is one of, if not the, absolute worst job in the world. Service businesses must have a COD policy; after all, you don’t leave the grocery store or restaurant without paying. Legal counsel should review the general conditions on the back of your contract form to ensure they are buttoned up tight.

It depends on many factors; however, a good rule of thumb in the northern parts of the nation is don't put any money into anything 12-15 years old or older. What a shame to repair a blower motor, wrap it up, and then have a draft inducer fail 6 months later. Then comes an igniter, control board, etc. One must be helpful, yet careful, to guide the customer to a sound decision. Utility bills definitely play a part in this also. Best wishes and good fortune!
