In warehouses, replacing old and outdated fixtures entirely can be a pain. Our easy to install LED high bay retrofits make it easy to replace metal halide warehouse bulbs with LED without the costs or hassle that comes with an entire fixture replacement. This is a highly popular option when warehouses look to LED to bring savings in their warehouse or factory.

Since there are so many options of these fixtures,

Maybe you are in need of entirely new fixtures, not just a retrofit kit. Our extensive listings of LED high bay fixtures gives you a great option to fully replace existing fixtures or even an entire lighting redesign.

If you are in an industry which requires explosion proof lighting, our high and low powered options are great to fit in warehouses (factories more often). You have the required explosion proof light that you need with the benefits of LED technology which is going to save you money. learn more about LED warehouse lighting options here.

Indoor Generator Provides 20,000 Watts of Stored Renewable Energy to a Ranch Home, Even When All External Power Supply is Unavailable

Dallas, TX  December 30, 2011– Doug Kerr is the proud owner of a stretch of land located in the rural area of Kaufman County (Texas) where the air is fresh and the hustle and bustle of city life is non-existent. One thing Doug’s land doesn’t have, however, is a city power grid. Traditionally, to gain access to power in an area that hasn’t already been included on the electrical grid, you can pay the local electrical provider a large sum to run new electrical service to your location, or be forced to use noisy, polluting, and high-maintenance fuel-powered generators.

Fortunately, Doug found a much better option when he called ElectricMan Inc., a local Dallas and Plano electrician. ElectricMan Inc. is the exclusive North Texas provider of the Indoor Generator, a system that utilizes the latest technology in power storage, partnered with reliable renewable energy options to pioneer electrical independence not only for off-grid applications, but any residence or business that could benefit from more reliable electrical service and lower electrical costs.

Using a vertical access wind turbine, ElectricMan Inc. takes advantage of the abundant wind rolling across Doug’s land, from any direction, to provide a consistent source of electricity for the custom-built Indoor Generator unit installed in his home. The Indoor Generator system itself contains 20 maintenance-free deep-cell AGM batteries capable of storing 20,000 watts of on-demand power—enough electricity to run the household for an entire week or two, even if the wind doesn’t blow at all.

Keeping in mind that no matter how reliable your system is, a backup power plan is always important. The Indoor Generator is also compatible with an external gas powered generator that will run and charge the system at the same time in the event of an emergency, or the unlikely case that the wind doesn’t blow for an extended period of time. This is where the innovative versatility of the system makes it uniquely capable to reliably power a home. With thousands of programmable commands, the Indoor Generator has the capability to utilize multiple incoming power sources, and automatically switch between options such as grid power if it is available, stored battery power, wind turbines, solar panels, or a gas-powered generator, dependent upon what option is readily available and efficient.

The innovations that are integrated into the Indoor Generator system now give any home or business access to a constant supply of clean power, increasing safety, security, and longevity of electrical systems and appliances, while providing the opportunity for electrical independence to anyone.

A quick glance at the news this week shows that solar panel installation, innovative solar technologies, and solar plants are taking off all over the world. Here is a quick look at some of the good news about solar energy:

– A team of Australian scientists have demonstrated supercritical steam can be harnessed in solar power plants, representing a dramatic increase in efficiency. Supercritical steam exists when steam is highly pressurized and is good news for large scale solar power plants that use mirrors to focus sunlight to heat water and create steam to turn turbines.

– India and China, two of the most populous countries in the world, are rolling out and finalizing plans to make solar power an integral part of their infrastructure. As both of those countries climb further into industrialization, they consume more resources. Integrating solar power now will help them reduce their impact on the environment.

– The EPA is setting new standards for carbon emissions for states to meet in the next few years and many people are curious about how industry and governments can meet these new benchmarks. Wind and solar panel have shown remarkable ability to create clean energy and generate jobs, both critical concerns.

Of course, these stories all stand against a background of home solar panel installation, which is still a viable way for you to reduce your environmental impact and control your energy costs at the same time. As energy costs continue to climb at an average rate of fiver percent a year, your savings will increase every year as you continue to use a clean source of energy.

We’ve been helping people like you realize their dreams of solar power and energy independence for years, with favorable deals on solar leasing and long term financing to get you started today. If you’ve dreamed of your own solar array, don’t hesitate to call us and make it happen.

Do you have a specific way you place food in your refrigerator or do you just put food wherever you can find an empty spot? If you use the latter method, you probably see more food spoilage. In fact, you may have to occasionally go hunting through the fridge to find that rotten smell we have all been familiar with.

Decluttering your refrigerator is probably one of the easiest ways to prevent food from spoiling quickly. It’s an easy process once you develop a system for it. The main goal is to keep your food easily accessible and highlight the foods that need to be eaten as soon as possible (like strawberries).

The best way to start this process is to clear out all of the expired food in your refrigerator. This includes bags of leftovers you promised yourself you were going to eat and it also includes all of those jars you’ve had on the side of your door for the past few years.

Once you have only edible food left in your refrigerator, think about how you want to use it:

Dedicate space for frequent meal preparation. If you have a certain breakfast, lunch or dinner meal prep routine, dedicate a shelf or two for just those ingredients so you can easily grab them first thing.

Showcase the foods that will spoil soon. Have foods that are likely going to expire sooner than the rest displayed front and center. This will encourage you to use them in meal preparation. Clear containers also make it easy to see what’s inside.

Control the environment. Check the temperature to make sure foods are properly stored. Putting liners in the bins also helps absorb any moisture that could make your fruits or vegetables too cold.

Develop a rotation system. When you buy new food, make sure you put it behind your older food.  This keeps your food waste low and your budget on track.

Don’t forget the freezer. If it is older than 6 months, it is probably freezer burned by now and can be tossed.  Store your foods in airtight containers or bags and label them (include the date).  No more “mystery meat” for dinner, and no more wasted food.

The freezer is often underutilized. Bread, scrambled egg mix, leftover coffee, tea, and broths can all be frozen for later use. Your homemade soup, cooked rice and other dinner entrees can also be frozen if you don’t have a chance to eat the leftovers in time.

Try using an ice cube try to store single serving pieces of purees, sauces and beverages. Freeze leftover coffee for an iced coffee drink, or a cube of frozen veggie broth to whip up some gravy later in the week. Make smoothies down the road by freezing mashed or chopped fruit. Almost anything can be frozen except for canned foods in the can (although they can usually be removed and frozen) and eggs in the shell.

To keep your refrigerator decluttered, go through it once a week to identify foods that need to be eaten soon and toss what is no longer edible. Once your refrigerator is decluttered, you’ll save money by having less food spoilage and eat better because all of your food is easy to find.

Keep Your Refrigerator Running at its Best Quality

Making sure your refrigerator is well maintained can also prolong the life of the food inside. If your refrigerator isn’t working correctly, food is more likely to spoil. Consider these tips for proper maintenance of your refrigerator:
