You would be shocked at all the service calls I have had in the last six to ten months for strange smells in ovens. Some of these homes had been occupied for almost a year remember. The cause?

New ovens have a very thin protectant on the steel and dust that is inside. In ten months time they hadn't cooked. Times get hard and out comes the Betty Crocker cook book. Thank goodness these folks don't live close enough to me to hear me laughing at them now.


Ya see! Good news! People are learning about batteries
and smoke alarms. Learning about fire extinguishers
and/or what that green "full" indicator means.
How to do a "low crawl" when the smoke gets thick.
Discovering just where-n-daHeck is that house insurance policy.
Discovering neighbors and family again because the
good fireman said you have to do a "sleep over" somewhere else.

See. Good news.

Smoke Alarms . . . . Don't even go there.
Every homeowner gets a "walk-thru" that contains what I call Homeowner 101. One of the biggest items are the smokies. You know, don't paint 'em and change the 9v back-up battery when you change the clocks. About 70% of the new owners call me within a year of move in complaining of an odd beeping sound. Folks just don't listen!
