Wow! ChordSavers have really come a long way since I last wrote about them. The product is ever expanding with lots of variety to meet just about any situation where cord and cable protection is needed.  Think about it – they can be used in the home, at church functions, stage productions, concerts, Home Theaters, A/V and so much more. We recently used them during a 3 day convention to cover up microphone and projector cables.  They stayed in place because of the revlolutionary non-slip, non-skid strips on the bottom of the ChordSavers.

Not only do they protect the cords but they prevent tripping over loose cords or cables.  You just don’t trip over these things!

ChordSavers™ are a unique solution for protection of all your cords and cables.

Specifically designed for protecting guitar, microphone, XLR, patch, PA, RCA, DJ equipment, digital, fiber optic, extension cords and cables, ChordSavers™ come in 36″ lengths and interlock to any length of run required. They eliminate the use of expensive duct or gaffers tapes that provide zero protection.

Use them over and over again for the most demanding stage and sound reinforcement rig, studio, home theater, trade show exhibit or heavy traffic area. They are reliable and simple to use while providing the ultimate protection that your equipment demands.

ChordSavers offer a unique solution to address the unwanted, untimely and unnecessary damage inflicted on your cable and cords. Providing the ultimate reusable cord protection for any musical stage, studio, or home theater setup, they come in an easy two piece snap together system and interlocking design to make them ideal for any length of cable run.  And…with the dual adhesion strips that help reduce slippage,  they offer the ultimate in protection.

Insulate Your Water Pipes & Keep The Heat In

Insulate Both The Cold Water and Hot Water Pipes and Save!

There are great reasons to spend a little bit on buying insulation for your water pipes. Actually, if you are anything like me, it is even better to install the insulation around your water pipes soon after you buy it rather they let it lay around collecting dust.

You can buy the insulation at Home Depot or Lowe’s or any plumbing supply center. Make sure you know the size of the water pipes so that you can get the appropriate fit.

Why insulate cold water pipes? Well, the main reason would be to prevent then from freezing if they are located in an unheated crawl space or in a garage or anywhere you suspect would be a potential problem spot.

But, what about the hot water pipes? The hot water pipes can loose a lot of heat as the water travels from your hot water tank to it’s final destination. By insulating these pipe, you keep the heat in, and this will result in the water getting to the shower, tub or sink sooner.

On the The U.S. Department of Energy’s website, there is a wealth of information that everyone could benefit by and I would recommend that you bookmark this site. Regarding water pipe insulation here are some great tips from the site.

“Insulating your hot water pipes reduces heat loss and can raise water temperature 2ºF–4ºF hotter than uninsulated pipes can deliver, allowing for a lower water temperature setting. You also won’t have to wait as long for hot water when you turn on a faucet or showerhead, which helps conserve water.

Insulate all accessible hot water pipes, especially within 3 feet of the water heater. It’s also a good idea to insulate the cold water inlet pipes for the first 3 feet.

Use quality pipe insulation wrap, or neatly tape strips of fiberglass insulation around the pipes. Pipe sleeves made with polyethylene or neoprene foam are the most commonly used insulation. Match the pipe sleeve’s inside diameter to the pipe’s outside diameter for a snug fit. Place the pipe sleeve so the seam will be face down on the pipe. Tape, wire, or clamp (with a cable tie ) it every foot or two to secure it to the pipe. If you use tape, some recommend using acrylic tape instead of duct tape.

On gas water heaters, keep insulation at least 6 inches from the flue. If pipes are within 8 inches of the flue, your safest choice is to use fiberglass pipe-wrap (at least 1-inch thick) without a facing. You can use either wire or aluminum foil tape to secure it to the pipe.”
