 Wipes

The COVID-19 outbreak has led many of us to use disposable disinfecting wipes more frequently. The packaging says “Flushable “ but they aren’t. They clog grinder pumps. They constrict service piping. Even our pumping facilities are not immune from the havoc they cause. Please put them in the                                                trash- don’t flush them down the toilet.

Should our repair technicians find your grinder pump failed thanks to wipes, you will be liable for the repair costs.

Portable generators are useful when temporary or remote electric power is needed, but they can be hazardous. The primary hazards to avoid when using them are carbon monoxide poisoning, electric shock or electrocution, and fire.

Downed utility lines, power company blackouts, heavy snow falls or summer storms can all lead to power outages. Many people turn to a portable generator for a temporary solution without knowing the risks.
