The Benefits of Energy Efficiency in the Restaurant Business

Energy Efficiency has many benefits especially in the Restaurant Business. Energy Efficiency uses less energy obtaining the same result. For example, as technology increases the electronics in the household is running up the electricity bill. Many High-Definition Televisions are becoming more Energy Efficient, which in the end saves money. Keep in mind Energy Efficiency is not Energy Conservation. Energy Conservation is reducing or eliminating a service to save energy. By making sure to shut off the lights in the house is an example of Energy Conversation.   According to ENERGY STAR, "Restaurants that invest strategically can cut utility costs 10 to 30 percent without sacrificing service, quality, style or comfort – while making significant contributions to a cleaner environment." It  makes for a cleaner environment by reducing the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. "As a Restaurant Owner/Manager you want to make high-quality meals at the lowest possible operating cost." Energy costs are continuing to rise making it more expensive to prepare meals in the restaurant industry. You should consider ENERGY STAR products to save money within your business. It will not only profit you but also the employees and customers as well. As stated by ENERGY STAR, Energy Efficiency is beneficial by cutting idle time. "Do you need all of your appliances on, all of the time? Probably not. Leaving equipment on standby costs money. We recommend implementing a startup/shutdown plan to make sure you’re using  only the equipment that you need, when you need it." Also be sure to maintain and repair your equipment. "Everyday wear and tear drive up your energy bills. While a leaky gasket, clogged burner or loose oven-door hinge may not waste much condition your kitchen. Cut down on spillage by adding inexpensive side panels to hoods, and push each appliance as far back against the wall as possible to maximize hood overhang and close the air gap between the appliance and the wall." To see more of this artcile from ENERGY START go to: http://www.energystar.gov/ia/business/small_business/restaurant_factsheet.pdf  Restaurant Equipment Paradise sells Energy Efficiency commercial equipment.

Connecticut’s Teen Driving Laws Making an Impact on Hartford Teens

This month marks the fourth anniversary of Connecticut’s tougher teen driving laws, and many state officials say that these laws have saved teenager’s lives. These laws were originally created in 2008 because of the high number of accident-related deaths of 16 and 17-year-olds throughout Connecticut. Thanks to these new laws, there has been a steady downward trend in these deaths, and officials are hoping that the number continues to drop. Motor vehicle accidents are the number one cause of death for teenagers throughout the nation according to DMV officials, and Connecticut is one of several states that have begun to enact special laws to protect these young drivers. Connecticut’s laws brought increased restrictions on teenage drivers, higher penalties for violations and tougher training requirements. This movement was part of an effort from the Connecticut CMV to protect the young and most inexperienced drivers on the road. Other groups within the state have been speaking out as well, including one group called Impact. This educational and non-profit organization focuses on preventing injuries, accidents and deaths caused by inexperienced drivers by holding driver education programs throughout the state. These programs benefit parents, school faculty, staff and law enforcement officers in addition to students, and uses multimedia presentations to provide facts about inexperienced driving and personal stories. It is a result of these combined efforts from concerned citizens, parents, and lawmakers that have reduced the number of car accidents among teenage drivers in the state have dropped 34%. This is even greater than the national decline of 26%, and the state plans to increase the awareness even more through innovative measures. Despite all of the progress that has been made, there are still accidents that take the lives of teenagers and leave other teens with life-changing injuries. If you or your loved one have been injured in an accident caused by the recklessness of another, seek help from a Hartford personal injury attorney who can help you seek justice and compensation.  David A. Zipfel & Associates, LLChas been serving victims throughout the area since 1978, and Attorney Zipfel has handled over 2,000 cases. Call the firm today to learn more. ...read more

Innovation From PODS

Innovation is the act of introducing something new. That’s just what PODS containers did for the moving and storage industry. By taking the idea of a self-storage unit and making it portable, these containers changed everything. They created an affordable way for people to get help with self-storage items, moving them with minimal effort. PODS made scheduling your loading, unloading, moving and storage easier and more convenient. Before PODS, movers had two choices. If you were moving from one house to another, you had to load everything into a moving truck yourself and then drive the unfamiliar rickety old truck to your new home. Or you could hire a moving company to do the loading and driving and unloading for you. The difference in price for these two options was significant, so most of us were stuck doing everything ourselves. If you were just looking for storage, maybe for your winter gear during the summer, you had to pack everything into your car or truck, drive it to self storage and unload it all back into the self-storage unit. Now there is a happy median for movers and an easier solution for those needing seasonal or long term storage. PODS containers helped movers find the middle road, offering an affordable alternative to loading and driving a moving truck. All you have to do is call the PODS franchise and the container is delivered to your driveway the next day. You load your things into the container, taking as much time as you need, and call them to get the PODS unit when you are done. Whether you keep the container for one day or 30, the price is the same, so you can take your time. Then you call the storage company to pick up the PODS container and they will take it to storage for you or move it to your new home; whichever you decide. Moving is stressful enough without adding obstacles. Rental trucks are just another hassle you don’t need. You have to worry about loading all your boxes up a rickety ramp in the back. Heavy furniture on dollies are a lot easier to load with a PODS container because the unit is place on level ground in your driveway. It’s easier on your back, your legs and your peace of mind. Then when you finally have everything loaded, you have to drive a big truck you are not familiar with over roads you have never traveled. When you let the PODS company do the driving, you have a lot less to worry about. And if you end up with a gap between the time you need to move and when your new home is ready, there is no problem getting your PODS unit stored at the storage company’s facility. Before PODS, if such a situation arose, you had to move twice…once to your temporary housing and then again to your new home. Now you can just take a few things you need from the PODS unit and send everything else into storage. What could be easier than that? ...read more

The transmission in my Volvo needed to either be rebuilt or replaced, and the staff at AAMCO gave me several options to get my car back on the road. Some of the options were simply too expensive, but that's the cost associated with repairs to something like an automatic transmission. The staff were willing to work with me to settle on an option I was comfortable paying for, and service and communication throughout the repair were excellent. ...read more
