The Winds of Change are coming!
It will be getting Cooler and then Colder,,,
So, Let's make plans NOW!




1.
     Have your furnace inspected and tuned up
 (do this right away, like early to mid September),
 before they get real busy doing others)

2.      Apply a fresh coat of paint, for sure where needed

3.      Inspect your roof

4.      Check for mold

5.      Replace weather stripping on doors

6.      Check air flow in vents i.e. stove, dryer, room fans

7.      Clean gutters and downspouts

8.      Check siding for curling, splitting or cracking

9.      Inspect your insulation

10.  Make sure smoke detectors are working (change the battery anyway)
11. After the last mowing of you yard change the oil, clean the air filter, fill the gas
 tank with Treated Gasoline, start your equipment and let it run for about 5 minutes (important)
 (strongly recommend that YOU purchase ONLY "REAL GAS" for your
 lawn equipment not the everyday gas that usually buy for your auto)
 change the spark plug in your mower and Edger,
      Treat the gasoline with a Gas Treatment that makes it stay fresh for months
12.  About Early November disconnect the garden hose
from the outside Faucet and IF you do use it again
 for some reason, DISCONNECT IT AGAIN!
(you don't want this to freeze, it can cost money to get repaired
 and cause wet damages to the inside of your home, which will also cost you more money)
13.  Change the filters in your Heat and Air System
14.  Have your auto battery checked for reserve power. Auto batteries that are the least
 bit weak will quit, usually on the first really cold morning
15.
  Treat your lawn with a weed control
about mid to late October so that next spring you don't have more weeds than grass
If you have a service, they should do this for you, but ask anyway!

If  there other checks that you think of, drop me an Email and I will promptly add it to this list (artjiles@artjiles.com) email address or call me 918.258.2298

Don't clog with the F.R.O.G.s

Fat FROG

With the holiday weekend approaching, you don’t want your kitchen sink to croak, so don’t put your F.R.O.G.s down the drain.

That’s right, F.R.O.G.s (fats, rags, oil, and grease) are notorious obstructionists in sewer lines and wastewater pump stations.

When these culprits clog the sewer lines, wastewater finds the path of least resistance. It can blow back into your sink or bathtub, creating unsanitary conditions in your home and costing you thousands of dollars to clean up.

When rags, also known as “flushable wipes,” fats, oil, and grease enter the system through a kitchen sink or toilet, they are trouble for the sewer system. 

These wipes wrap around the intricate parts of the City’s pump stations, causing them to shut down. City employees remove enormous amounts of wipes by hand every week to get the system up and running again.

Sewer obstructions, such as these, clog the pump stations that carry wastewater to the City’s wastewater treatment plant. When wastewater comes out of a pump station or a manhole, it gets into our rivers, streams, and ponds and can lead to illnesses for people and animals and harm plant life. Please keep fats, rags, oil, and grease (F.R.O.G.) out of the sewer system. 

When in doubt, throw it out in the trash, do not flush it down the sink or toilet. 

Here are other non-flushable, non-drainable items to avoid putting down your sewer system:

Click this link to see what to NOT flush down the Toilet
yes!  it is a safe link!!

  • ts. Dairy products such as milk, cheese, butter, and used oil or grease. Grease solidifies when it gets cold and will adhere to pipes.
  • Cotton Swabs do not dissolve. They clump together and cause blockages in the system.
  • Paper towels. These are also clogging culprits. They do not dissolve and will clog your pipes. 
  • Dental Floss. Acts as a net catching other objects and debris in the flow. 
  • Tissues. Though they are similar, toilet paper and tissues are not the same. Tissues do not dissolve in water. 
  • Face masks, feminine products, and condoms. These items will not flush and will cause drain and sewer system blockages. 

So please don't clog with the F.R.O.G (fats, rags, oil, and grease). Keep them out of the sewer system to prevent harm to your home, the sewer system, and the environment by throwing them away in the garbage.

State Park

Discover a Fairytale Getaway Near Tulsa: Natural Falls State Park,

Green Country Tourism

Natural Falls State Park is a mesmerizing Okie gem that feels better suited for the backdrop of a tropical getaway than a day trip in a flyover state. Boasting a show-stopping 77-foot waterfall, scenic hiking trails, and serene natural views, this magical destination is our top spot to reconnect with nature or...get a great Instagram.
  • Go Chasing Waterfalls: The park's centerpiece, a majestic 77-foot waterfall, cascades through rocky formations in the Ozark Highlands, creating a tranquil atmosphere in the valley below.
  • Scenic Hiking: Take a leisurely hike on the 1.2-mile roundtrip Dripping Springs Trail, which weaves through the woods, over creeks, past a smaller waterfall, and descends a steep staircase to an observation deck at the foot of the main waterfall.

AIR-PURIFYING HOUSE PLANTS

 

                                                                                                                                The following article on the most colorful and best-smelling house plants is reprinted from www.houselogic.com, an
                                                                                                                                                                informational website sponsored by the National Association of Realtors.

 

                                                                                                                               Most air-purifying house plants put out their own sweet smell while removing the nasty ones that make your nose curl.
                                                                                                                         But just to clarify, while NASA confirms these plants do tackle toxins, they are not a cure-all for our home here on earth.
                                                                                                                                            They will remove some toxins, but since our homes are not airtight (unlike NASA’s place abodes),
                                                                                                                                                                     they can’t remove everything because the air is constantly changing.

                                                                                                                                                                      But don’t let that put you off. These air-purifying plants can make
                                                                                                                                                      a difference in your home with their sweet scents. Here are a few to get you started

 

·         Jasmine has a sweet odor that can calm you

·         Lavender is great at making you sleepy

·         Rosemary can help you focus and work smarter

·         Sharry Baby Orchid smells like chocolate. Delicious!

·         Mother-in-law Tongue turns carbon monoxide into oxygen

·         Devils Ivy (pothos) can cleanse air of toxic fumes

·         Mums tack on of the toughest toxins: cigarette smoke

·         Peace Lily can reduce annoying, new odors from upholstery and carpet
