Energy For The Future | Bleeding The Taxpayer

“Green” Energy

FirstEnergy currently has two nuclear power plants operating in Ohio providing resources around the state. Privately owned and looking for more profit to stay in business. Now they are claiming they aren’t making enough to stay in business. Proposing a “zero emissions credit” to help recoup the loss. This bill has been introduced in Illinois and is currently under fire. If you take a look it is not hard to see why.

The “zero emissions credit” is not a new concept. Government subsidies are given to clean energy. This is to help them stay competitive in the market as to help advance the alternate fuel efforts. However is nuclear clean? It doesn’t release CO2 however there will be toxic waste produced from the reactor. Why would we give this subsidy meant to further clean energy to one producing one of the most harmful waste byproducts we know of?

Here’s The Deal

The proposed bill could see an increase on your bill five percent and commercial bills by five to nine percent. Well what if you planed ahead? What if you have energy coming from another supplier? Well according to the proposed bill this won’t matter. It will be a mandatory amount owed based on your energy consumption regardless. Totaling an extra 300 million in revenue for the energy giant. Something that should be front page news, barely spoken of. However if we look into the companies reported finances we don’t see this deficit.

“clean” energy

So what is the real intent here? Is this team Ohio pulling together to secure their energy supply or, is a quick profit. Here at Professional Gutter and Drain we believe in transparency with our customers. We value your feedback and are proud to show you every step along the way. Collaboration has proven itself the best way forward, hopefully we can continue to do so without any laws restricting us!

If you believe you have a clogged downspout drain you can easily verify your thought by testing the drain with your garden hose, this will let you know if you need drain cleaning. If the drain is 100% clogged then it shouldn’t take long before you see water start to back up and overflow out of the top of the drain.

If your drain is partially blocked then you might see a trickle of water out of the exit of the pipe and some overflowing at the top of the drain. Because a garden hose is usually the only thing you can test with and it will only provide a limited flow of water into the drain there is another possibility. Your drain may be partially blocked and not overflow except for in the instance of a heavy rain that can put a higher volume of water into your drain system then what was possible with a standard garden hose. If you suspect this is your problem the only way to know for sure is to have a drain camera inspection completed or be lucky enough to be in the right place watching the drain the next time you get a heavy down pour. We specialize in exterior drains only, therefore we have the heavy duty equipment necessary to trench through tough terrain including roots.

Gutter Service

Your crew was very professional and communicated well. plus very polite and talkative

As a full service gutter company we do gutter cleaning and repair as well. This type of service is completed during a service call out to your home. As part of a gutter service call, we will clean debris from your gutters and give your entire gutter / downspout system a “tune-up”. This means we will spend up to two man hours cleaning, tightening loose fasteners, adding fasteners, re-pitching gutter, refastening downspouts, re-sealing corners, and making other adjustments on an as needed basis. If two man hours is not enough time to complete gutter cleaning and repair on your entire home than additional time will be charged per man hour.

There are several different profiles and sizes of 1/2 round gutter. They are commonly made of galvanized steel, copper, or reverse bead seamless aluminum. The most common profile of 1/2 round gutter is a single bead across the front of the gutter and a double bead version with a bead in the front and back of the gutter is available.

There are many different hangers and bracket systems available to hang and support 1/2 round gutter. Typical sizes range from 5″ gutter with fluted or smooth round downspouts to 8″ with 5″ round downspouts. Due to the profile of the gutter and it’s limited capacity we recommend no smaller than 6″ be installed in the central Ohio – Columbus Ohio area. When installing copper or galvanized 1/2 round gutter we solder the seams and joints to provide decades of leak free service.
