Americas Watchdog Wants to Hear From Air Conditioning Insiders to Learn When They Learned About the Toxic Chinese Drywall in Florida
Washington, DC (PRWEB) April 13, 2009
For over three months Americas Watchdog, & its Homeowners Consumer Center have been leading in a national, and state by state investigation of the effects of toxic Chinese drywall on US homeowners, their families, & their actual houses. The group has discovered significant quantities of toxic Chinese drywall in Florida, Louisiana, Texas, Nevada, California, Virginia, Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi, Alabama, Colorado, Oklahoma, and other US States. What is most alarming is the group now thinks the imported toxic Chinese drywall could literally be in hundreds of thousands of new US homes, remodeled homes, or homes repaired after Hurricanes, like Katrina, or Ivan. Americas Watchdog now wants to know, “When did the US air conditioning companies know when the toxic Chinese drywall was corroding copper air conditioning coils in Florida, and other states? Homeowners, their children & their families are getting sick, & we want to know when the air conditioning repair crews knew exposure to toxic Chinese drywall was degrading, or corroding copper air conditioning coils.” Air conditioning company insiders, residential construction project managers, or air conditioning repair people should call the Homeowners Consumer Center if they have any specific information on this very serious issue at 866-714-6466, or contact the group via their web site at http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.
Americas Watchdog has talked to several thousands US citizens about toxic Chinese drywall. Aside from the severe medical side effects, one of the symptoms of toxic Chinese drywall appears to be copper corrosion, copper discoloring, or air conditioning failures. The group now wants to talk to air conditioning technicians, or air conditioning repair people, in order to establish how long ago the US air conditioning industry knew about toxic Chinese drywall degrading copper, or air conditioning coil failures? “We hear from homeowners all the time, the air conditioning repair man said, he had never seen anything like it before, or you have the Chinese toxic drywall, or these coils are supposed to last 15 years.” These conversations go back to 2004. If true, Americas Watchdog wants to know, “Why did US homebuilders continue to use imported toxic Chinese drywall, after it was known it was corroding metal, and or making people sick? Was no one in the homebuilding, or air conditioning industry concerned about people’s health?” Insiders in the air conditioning repair industry, or homebuilding insiders with specific information should contact the Homeowners Consumer Center at 866-714-6466, or contact them via their web site at http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.
According to the group, “We are trying to connect the dots as to who knew what, and when. We need honest air conditioning repair people, & or homebuilder insiders, to let us know when people knew about the toxic Chinese drywall. There are sick homeowners & kids in numerous US States & we need to know why, & when it started.”
Repeat note to national or regional homebuilders in Florida & other states: According to the President of Americas Watchdog, “We have heard you intend to destroy mysef, or our organizations for exposing your liability in endangering 100,000′s of innocent U.S. citizens with toxic Chinese drywall. For the record, I have failed in the past, and I will never forgive myself, and I have devoted my life to making things right for everyone. However, I did not expose 100,000′s of U.S. citizens to a Chinese toxic drywall product that could make them sick. I did not hire over a million undocumented construction workers, and then invent a 1099 tax fraud scheme that has cheated Federal & State tax authorities out of tens and tens of billions of dollars, with no investigation from the U.S. IRS (even though we have been calling for one for almost four years — Google Americas Watchdog undocumented workers). We did not commit appraisal fraud by over inflating the values of our nations homes, like you did, and in doing so, help create our nation’s current housing disaster, (but I warned about it: June 2005 Money Magazine — Appraisal Fraud your home at risk).”
Americas Watchdog and its groups have been trying to help every US homeowner since 2001. “We will continue to try to make things right for everyone,” the group’s president continues, “am I a failure? Yes; and I will continue to try to make things right for everyone, and I will not back down on on the toxic Chinese drywall issue, for anyone living in Florida, or any other state.”
Honest air conditioning repair people, air conditioning technicians, or homebuilder insiders, with specific information about air conditioning coil failures are encouraged to call the Homeowners Consumer Center anytime at 866-714-6466, or Contact them via their web site at http://HomeownersConsumerCenter.com.
“This really is a matter of the health of 100,000′s of US citizens, we are hoping courageous air conditioning repair people, or homebuilding insiders will step forward on this critical issue,” says the group.
Americas Watchdog & its Homeowners Consumer Center are all about homeowner protection & corporate responsibility.

Chas Roberts Alerts Arizona Homeowners: New Tax Incentives for Air Conditioning Units Available
Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) April 23, 2009
Chas Roberts Heating and Air Conditioning is informing Arizona homeowners that the recently passed federal stimulus bill (American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009) has made it more affordable for homeowners to replace their air conditioning units with more energy-efficient models – just as the Phoenix area reached over 100 degrees for the first time this year and Tucson won’t be far behind.
Homeowners who install qualified central air conditioning units January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010 may qualify for a tax credit for 30% of the installation costs*, up to 00*. The stimulus bill also removed the 0 lifetime cap from similar tax credits that were available in 2006 and 2007. Homeowners that claimed tax credits in those years may still be eligible for the full 00 tax credit for 2009-2010*. In addition, APS customers may also qualify for an additional rebate of up to 0 and Tucson Electric Power Company customers may qualify for rebates of up to 0 for installation of high-efficiency air conditioning systems.
“It’s never been more financially reasonable and timely to ‘go green’ with your air conditioner,” says Chas Roberts CEO Roberta Roberts Shank. “These new tax incentives, combined with the early onset of summer temperatures, make this the perfect time for homeowners to consider replacing their air conditioning units.”
Replacing a central air conditioning system is a sound financial decision. A more efficient air conditioning unit uses far less energy and can reduce your energy costs by up to 40%*. Combined with the new tax incentives and rebates being offered, it can quickly pay for itself. It’s also an investment in restoring the ozone layer, which protects us from solar UV radiation and it’s an investment in making the air we breathe cleaner and safer.
Now is the time to take a look at your air conditioner before it gets too hot, or worse – before your unit breaks. To have a higher efficiency air conditioning unit installed by a knowledgeable Chas Roberts technician, call (602) 328-5058 in the Phoenix area or (520) 292-6858 in Tucson, or visit ChasRoberts.com.

Air Conditioning Tuneups Key to $1 Million Gas and Electric Savings
Southlake, Tex. (PRWEB) July 30, 2009
Berkey’s Plumbing, Heating and Air Conditioning is on a record pace to complete more than 10,000 heating and air conditioning equipment tuneups that will save its customers more than million in gas and electric bills this year.
Bill Stevens, Berkey’s president, said demand for service has been strong all year, but the extreme heat in July has all but assured the company will better its previous performance.
“In this recessionary economy, people are looking for ways to save money, and they know a small investment in their heating and air conditioning equipment will pay big dividends in reduced gas and electric bills,” Stevens said.
The million savings figure is conservative, as it represents 0 in annual savings for every tune-up. But heating and air conditioning equipment tuneups produce efficiency gains of up to 30 percent, while combined gas and electric bills in many North Texas homes average more than 0 per month. At that rate, homeowners could approach 0 savings every month.
In steamy Texas weather, central air conditioning tuneups are vital to efficient performance and extended equipment life. Berkey’s technicians perform a nine-point inspection of all inside and outside components to set equipment to factory specifications.
“It takes about 45 minutes to do a good tuneup, and we do that an average of 38 times per day year-around,” Stevens said. “Heater tuneups in cool weather are just as important as air conditioning tuneups. Not only do they save money, we check for carbon monoxide and other potentially harmful gasses.”
The average home heating and central air conditioning equipment runs about 3,300 hours per year. That’s the equivalent of driving a car 65 miles per hour for 214,000 miles. Few vehicles would get that far without a tuneup. Also, the savings in gasoline costs for auto tuneups usually are not nearly as great as the savings on gas and electric bills that heating and air conditioning tuneups generate.
Financially speaking, air conditioning and heater tuneups are a bargain, often returning the full cost as reduced gas and electric bills within a few weeks. Stevens said Berkey’s sweetens the pot by offering a service contract that covers all heating and air conditioning equipment in a home (their average customer has 3.2 units) for one flat price that is barely more than the cost of a single tuneup for one system.
As a bonus, Berkey’s includes a plumbing “tuneup” as well. “Our customers have come to expect real value and outstanding service from Berkey’s,” Stevens said.
