Dirt Direct : Topsoil & Loam

Dirt Direct offers a convenient, affordable solution to ordering bulk aggregate and landscape materials. Among the many services they offer, topsoil and loam delivery is one that many people may be starting to think about. Seeing as the first day of spring is on March 20th, it’s about that time of year for people to start thinking about planning their landscaping work.

Bulk delivery may not be for everyone, but if you’re in need of a large delivery of topsoil or loam, Dirt Direct is your company. Dirt Direct will work with you to make sure you get the right amount of topsoil or loam you need for your home or work site. The topsoil and loam they have to offer is quality material. It includes composted materials and is screened as to provide a consistency from 3/4″ to a small particle of dirt. Why does “screening” matter you ask? The screening process is done to add nutrients to enhance the food and minerals for your plants. To thrive in our Maine climate most plants need quality topsoil or loam to supply the plants with necessary nutrients.

Are you aware that topsoil and loam are not the same material? Topsoil is mostly what the name suggests, it is the upper most layer of the ground. It is naturally occurring dirt which is comprised of organic decaying matter. While loam is more of a commercial mixture of sand, clay and silt. This is considered to be the best topsoil because the natural mixture allows water to be soaked, while also allowing the water to drain and air to circulate. Just remember that  while all loam is topsoil, not all topsoil is loam!

Gelinas HVAC : All About Heat Pumps

What are Heat Pumps and what do they do exactly?

Heat Pumps are a central system that moves heat rather than generating heat. The systems do not require fuel consumption and provide the same space heating and conditioning at 1/4 of the cost of the traditional heating and cooling appliances. Heat Pumps provide a central system that is very energy efficient as well as being less invasive to install than the traditional heating and cooling systems. Since heat pumps are an all in one assembly, they are a great alternative to traditional heating and cooling systems. Heat Pumps use a compressor to absorb heat energy in the air as well as circulate it within the indoors and outdoors. For instance, heat in the cold months and cool air in the warmer months.

Heat pumps are less invasive and any circulating unit can be placed on any flat ceiling, wall, or floor surface. Just one outdoor unit can provide for multiple indoor units that include individual temperature controls. Indoor units have a self modulating setting to maintain an interior temperature without being there. The compressors and motors are located in the outside unit to provide a quiet indoor environment. The annual savings from using a heat pump can be 30% over the current consumption and costs of propane* as well as 20% over the current consumption and costs of natural gas*.

*Cost savings are approximate, and based on current market conditions.
