A few simple changes including one important tip to help homeowners save over $300 per year in energy cost

Englewood CO  (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  The Englewood Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard urges homeowners to schedule a dryer vent inspection and service to prevent dryer fires and improve dryer performance. The clothes dryer is among the top 5 energy users in the home and a poorly vented clothes dryer will cost substantially more money to operate. Whether gas or electric, a clothes dryer requires proper airflow to function safely and efficiently.

Mitchell Chesney, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard, combines service with education to eliminate dryer fire hazards in his neighborhood. In addition to preventing dryer fires, dryer vent cleaning can reduce energy consumption by $300 per year, per household.

For many years dryer fire prevention was the Wizard's main focus. Due to rising energy costs Chesney has added energy saving tips to his conversation with customers to encourage proper dryer maintenance.

Besides regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning service, some of the suggestions for saving energy in the laundry room provided by the Wizard include:

• Do only full loads of laundry, but do not over load the machine
• Dry back to back loads to use residual heat left in the dryer after a cycle
• Separate heavy from light weight items for more efficient drying
• The super thrifty energy saver can use outdoor clothes lines or indoor drying racks either instead of, or in addition to using the dryer

Clothes dryers can be expensive appliances to operate but there are things people can do to reduce the cost. The number one green tip from the Wizard is to have regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning service to ensure the dryer operates as safely and efficiently as possible.

Dryer Vent Wizard services dryer vent systems in homes and businesses with clothes dryers. Every dryer needs a Wizard to ensure peace of mind knowing the dryer is operating safely and efficiently. Mitchell Chesney serves the Denver Metro area, Boulder, Englewood and surrounding cities and communities. Visit http://www.dryerventcleaningenglewood.com/ to learn more.

Their latest website provides free Conservatory price comparison quotes. Bringing UK homeowners nationwide access to some of the most competitive Conservatory prices, their objective is to provide a quick and simple to use facility to compare quotations from qualified, trusted and very competitive Conservatory installers.

London, UK  (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  Best summarised as "a quick and simple to use facility to compare quotations from qualified, trusted and very competitive Conservatory installers", www.conservatoriesshop.co.uk was launched to give consumers a single place to go in order to find the lowest priced conservatories in the UK.

In order to give visitors enough information help them decide on which type of conservatory would suit them - and what to look for (or avoid) when choosing a conservatory installation contactor, the site has been designed to provide a wealth of information on all types of conservatories, including helpful sections on planning permission and building regulation requirements that homeowners may not be aware of.

In many cases homeowners who are looking for conservatory prices online for the first time, find that good quality, unbiased and independent advice is hard to locate. Not only that, but in order to be able to compare the market properly consumers would have to find at least 3 installers that they feel they can trust to give them written quotes - normally meaning a long and frustrating search of many websites.

Golden Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard Explains How Carbon Monoxide can be a Concern

Homeowners are unaware of the danger associated with poorly vented gas dryers

Golden CO  (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  The Golden Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard says his customers are often surprised to learn that a gas dryer can be a carbon monoxide threat. All fuel burning appliances require proper ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Just like the furnace or water heater, a poorly vented gas dryer can allow dangerous levels of carbon monoxide into the home.

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless gas that interferes with how the body processes oxygen. It is dangerous and deadly. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning include headache, nausea and disorientation. The dangerous gases are produced inside homes where carbon-containing fuels are incompletely burned.

Service technicians with Dryer Vent Wizard explain to their customers that poorly vented gas appliances, including clothes dryers, can allow carbon monoxide into the home. With increased consumer awareness, leading to homes being upgraded for energy efficiency, the problem grows as gas by-products, like carbon monoxide, have less chance of escaping the home. Proper dryer vent installation and regularly scheduled dryer vent cleaning is critical to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.

It is important to be sure all combustion equipment and appliances in a home are properly installed and have adequate ventilation. Have a qualified dryer vent service technician perform an inspection and upgrades if necessary to ensure the clothes dryer is operating safely and efficiently.

Dryer Vent Wizard is the largest chain of dryer vent service providers with 60 independently owned locations in the US. Mitchell Chesney serves the Denver Metro area, Golden, Arvada, Lakewood and surrounding neighborhoods. Visit http://www.dryerventcleaninggolden.com/ to learn more.

New York, NY (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 -- If you or your kids are attending college, don't forget about the various education tax benefits that may be available to you. Some people overlook these important credits. You will need to figure out which of these you are eligible for and the one that's best for you, but one of the most popular is the American Opportunity Tax Credit. If you qualify, you could get up to a $2,500 tax credit per student for tuition, books, and certain fees you pay for during the first four years of higher education.

"Many of those eligible for the American Opportunity Tax Credit will qualify for the maximum annual credit of $2,500 per student." explained Paul Stanley of eTax.com. "Even if you don't earn enough to have to file a tax return, you should file one anyway because you could still get a refund for up to $1,000 for each eligible student."

The starting point to figure your credit is a Form 1098-T. That's the tuition statement you get from the college showing how much tuition and other qualifying expenses were paid for the student.

"Check with your school if you haven't received your tuition statement, and remember, be sure to keep your receipts, so whether you are sending the kids off to college or working on your own college degree." stated Stanley.

To find out more information about the American Opportunity Tax Credit visit eTax.com Help Center.

Home insurance providers are starting to require dryer vent inspection and cleaning; firefighters know first hand the devastation caused by clogged dryer vents

Arvada CO  (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  The Arvada Dryer Vent Cleaning Wizard, insurance companies and firefighters all join forces to prevent dryer fires. Some home insurance providers are requiring the service and local firefighters know first hand the devastation caused by dryer fires.

Mitchell Chesney owns Dryer Vent Wizard, providing dryer vent cleaning and service to homes and businesses in the Denver Metro area. Education is a vital part of the Wizard's service as he provides tips to his customers to prevent dryer fires and improve dryer efficiency.

More than 17,000 dryer fires occur each year, causing deaths, injuries, and nearly $200 million in property damage. In response to this growing trend, dryer manufacturers install safety devices to shut the appliance down when sensors indicate overheating and airflow blockage. Of course, like anything else, these safeguards are not 100%. They can wear out or fail.

Dryer Vent Wizard service technicians recommend annual dryer vent cleaning and inspection of dryer exhaust systems to ensure safety. Insurance companies are starting to require dryer vent cleaning and maintenance to reduce the risk of dryer related fires.

The Wizard also addresses other problems that result from poorly vented dryers including increased humidity causing mold and mildew damage and upper respiratory problems for sensitive residents. Gas dryers that are not vented properly can cause carbon monoxide to leak into the home as well. Restricted air flow causes the dryer to work harder and longer to get the job done, leading to malfunction, poor performance and substantially higher energy bills.

Service by the Wizard quickly pays for itself in energy savings and improved dryer performance, not to mention elimination of several home hazards. Enjoy peace of mind knowing the dryer is operating safely and efficiently. Order a complete dryer vent inspection by the Wizard. Visit http://www.arvadadryerventcleaning.com/ to learn more.

Close-Up Talk Radio spotlights Cheryl Anne Lampshire

Upton, MA  (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  When telling a story, all the elements must work in harmony for the story to be truly effective and elicit the desired response.

The same is true of the work we do; business processes are simply another way of telling a story. Cheryl Anne Lampshire is an author and business consultant specializing in quality assurance and business process management and improvement.

"I would describe myself professionally as a problem solver and a story teller," says Lampshire. "The bigger the problem, the more interesting it is to me. I address everything as an opportunity to help people succeed because deep down everyone wants to succeed."

In the last decade, work has become so complex managers no longer understand what their employees actually do. As a result, the modern work environment no longer provides incentive for employees to emerge into leadership. According to Lampshire, the new role of a manager is to be a collaborator and a facilitator, keeping the path smooth.

The companies Lampshire consults typically know they have a problem but they don't know what it is. More often than not, their stories aren't aligned with their culture. They want employees to assert themselves as leaders and share their innovative ideas, but the existing business processes don't promote that kind of engagement. Lampshire will develop technology channels to enable teams to feel safe and empowered such that innovation, creativity and leadership will emerge.

"Respect is the only cultural value all humans share," says Lampshire. "In the culture of successful, innovative teams, all the team members feel respected; they feel listened to and trust the other members of the team. When they have all of those things, they share their creativity and innovation runs."

Close-Up Talk Radio will feature Cheryl Anne Lampshire in a four-part interview with Doug Llewelyn on February 6th and February 13th at 12pm EST and with Jim Masters on February 20th and February 27th at 8pm EST.

The starting point to figure your credit is a Form 1098-T. That's the tuition statement you get from the college showing how much tuition and other qualifying expenses were paid for the student.

"Check with your school if you haven't received your tuition statement, and remember, be sure to keep your receipts, so whether you are sending the kids off to college or working on your own college degree." stated Stanley.

PAWTUCKET, R.I. (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 -- New 'digs' for the New Year: Professional property management and tenant placement services will now be available to Rhode Island property owners statewide, as Nexus Property Management expands and opens a new office located at 420 Pawtucket Avenue, Pawtucket, RI 02860.

Many real estate companies are primarily brokerages that focus on sales, with property management being an all-but-forgotten and distant afterthought. But according to Nexus Property Management broker and owner Nicholas D'Agnillo, "We believe in connecting Rhode Island property owners with better living. This means not only helping them manage or acquire new properties, it also means removing the stress of filling a long-standing vacancy, and beyond."

Nexus Property Management offers a variety of real estate management services, including the advertising and marketing of vacancies, application processing, property leasing and maintenance, and collections and evictions if need be. An example of Nexus' hands-on approach is the "Rent4U" service, a turnkey solution that helps owners who need assistance with tenant placement in RI or property management in RI but still wish to manage their property's day-to-day operations.

According to D'Agnillo, the company lives up to its motto ("Connecting You with Better Living") quite literally. Through the Nexus Property Management Web portal, owners gain access to real-time reports such as tenant payment history and can communicate with the Nexus management team directly. Tenants can use the Web portal to pay rent, submit maintenance requests or view account history.

Open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday, the new Nexus Property Management office is located at 420 Pawtucket Avenue, Pawtucket, RI 02860, at the corner of Auburn Street.

Time Management and Productivity Expert Laura Stack Discusses How to Create a Culture of Speed

DENVER, Colorado (PRBuzz.com) February 5, 2013 --  For decades society has scrambled to keep pace with technological changes by ramping productivity up to startling levels. This in turn, helps to further advance technology, which leads to greater productivity - a rising spiral that time manager and productivity expert Laura Stack says begs the question: "How do you build and maintain such a culture of speed?"

In her latest blog, "How to Create a Culture of Speed," Stack answers the question by discussing agile organizations and high-performance teams.

"Nowadays you have to put the pedal to the metal, or the go-getters will leave you eating their dust, taking big bites off the edges of your market," Stack says. "You can't compete effectively without an agile internal culture capable of reducing time-to-market and cycle speed for all essential processes."

Stack directs readers to consider the following principles for creating a culture of speed:

1. Perfect your systems. Create and document procedures for every type of task handled by a team. Make sure everyone involved learns these procedures, providing them with training if needed.

"Ask yourself how fast you can be up and running if you lose a key person," Stack says. "Consistently update your procedures to match current reality, so nothing is ever out of date."

2. Establish a broad support base. Managers and team leaders should do everything possible to encourage investment from all team personnel. Spread authority so the workflow process doesn't break down when one person is away, hesitant, or not allowed to make a basic decision.

"Motivate your people in every way you can think of," Stack says. "Keep careful track of performance--rewarding fast, effective employees with special rewards when targets are met--while providing benchmarks for everyone to shoot for."

3. Eliminate myopia. When working closely with other teams, develop intergroup protocols to smooth the way.

4. Communicate effectively. Every member of a team must fully understand the organization's values, mission/vision, and strategic priorities, and their place within that framework.

"Provide feedback immediately when someone requests or requires you to do so," Stack says. "Don't play word games with anyone: tell your co-workers, subordinates, and even your bosses precisely what you want and when you need it."

5. Leverage technology. Use techno-tools to maximize speed, but avoid letting sparkly time wasters like social media become distractions that suck up valuable time.

"Upgrade production technology (including software) whenever you can afford to and the benefits warrant it," Stack says. "Become an early-adopter of proven, useful new devices."

In the most effective organizations, everything moves swiftly. Innovative organizations that can effectively maximize their velocity will pull ahead in the business race, as others stagnate or falter. Stack says her tips can help an organization become one of the winners.

"If you're running all out and can't seem to get anywhere, perhaps something's wrong with your organizational culture," Stack says.

"Take a look at the items I've outlined in this blog, think deeply about each point, and remember this: even if it seems everyone else has forgotten, you're all in this together.

"Find ways to work with or around everyone--so your team, at least, can keep moving the organization forward."
