    High school sprinkler system approved - March 13, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    by Jason Angus Reporter jangus@civitasmedia.com Altus Times

    The Board approved four-year board member Dr. John Thomas to serve as President of the Board, and three-year board member Keith Phillips to serve as Vice President. The Altus Public School District Board of Education approved this reorganization of the Board during their regular meeting held 5 p.m., Monday, March 11, in the Conference Room of the Administrative Center at 219 N. Lee.

    The newest Board member Nate Covington was present.

    The Board of Education also approved to accept the bid from Ricks Lawn Sprinklers to install a sprinkler system to the Altus High School game and practice football fields for the amount of $42,650. Board member Darrell Moss raised the question of whether or not it would be better to install AstroTurf for the playing field in order to help with the water conservation effort. It was discussed that the cost of an AstroTurf can reach upwards of $600,000. Superintendent Bob Drury assured that the new sprinkler system design will help save on the water bill and provide more coverage than the current sprinkler system.

    After the initial roll and the flag salute led by Phillips, Dr. Thomas noted that the pay request from Vance Hunt Libraries for the High School library furniture and shelving does not require Board action because it has been already been approved by the Altus City Council. Thomas also provided that the Choice of School Enrollment period is May 6-10, and Pre-K enrollment is June 1 at AHS.

    The Board approved claims and items on the consent agenda. There were no actions to be taken to amend any current polices.

    Accepted school district resignations include certified personnel Pam Booker, Family Consumer Services at Altus High School, effective May 30, Joe McIntyre, Special Education at Altus Intermediate School, May 24, and non-certified personnel Maria Derruisseaux, Secretary of Adult Education, June 30, and Deanna Jones, Crossing Guard at Sunset Elementary, May 24.

    Reassignments approved for 2013-2014 school year include certified personnel Kim Allen from Counselor at both AHS and Roosevelt Elementary School to full-time counselor at AHS, Gigi Brickhouse from the Intermediate School to Vocal Music Teacher at the Junior High School, Samantha Gregory from Title I to Counselor at the Intermediate School, Chuck Martin from Alternative Education at Altus Junior High School to Assistant Principal at the Intermediate school, Lori Reden to be full-time counselor at the intermediate school, and Deborah Webb, to be Dean of Students at Bulldog Academy.

    Approved non-certified reassignments include Deborah Green go to ISS supervisor at the Intermediate School, and Vicki Heitert from Special Education Aide at Rivers Elementary to Custodian at the Junior High School.

    Proposed substitutes, time sheet employees, volunteers, and extra duty assignments were approved by the Board.

    Houston Pro Services to Offer Smart Lawn Sprinkler System Upgrades at No Extra Cost - March 13, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    Trial Offer by Houston Pro Services to provide 200 Solar Sync ET sensors at no cost to new lawn sprinkler installation customers in Houston. These sensors, which are usually a $300 upgrade, help conserve water and provide extra convenience to homeowners.

    Houston, TX (PRWEB) March 12, 2013

    The Hunter Solar Sync ET sensor assesses sunlight and temperature and adjusts the sprinkler system daily to determine evapotranspiration (ET) and adjust the irrigation run time against the programmed run time according to its seasonal adjustment value. The sensor also immediately halts irrigation in the event of rain or freezing conditions as required by Texas law.

    Due to water conservation concerns, all automatic sprinkler systems installed after January 1, 2009, are required to have a rain/freeze sensor per Texas State Law. However, the law stopped short of requiring new sprinkler systems to automatically adjust and account for other changes in the environment that could reduce the amount of water wasted.

    Houston Pro Services is dedicated to providing responsible landscaping solutions that are smart and affordable. According to William Santamaria, owner of Houston Pro Services, You hire a licensed irrigator to custom design your irrigation system for durability and efficiency, but you still have to make manual changes to the settings to adjust the amount of water being used. It is not a very efficient or convenient way to manage it, which is why we are offering this upgrade.

    The issue with traditional sprinkler system installations is that the homeowner must change the programing based on weather conditions or seasonal adjustments, which unfortunately, just does not happen. Even the most dedicated homeowner tends to forget to adjust the settings to compensate for the changes in season or weather. Providing free Smart Sprinkler Systems on new installations will allow our customers to just set it one time and forget it, said Mr. Santamaria.

    A smart sprinkler system prevents wasting water because it will only run just enough water based on sunlight, temperature, and ET throughout the entire year, unlike homeowners who make their own judgments solely according to current temperature. Commercial irrigation systems use smart sprinkler systems because water conservations and savings are extremely important for larger jobs.The water savings for large systems, which can be up to 30%, are considerable due to the number of gallons used each week. Hence, Houston Pro Services residential customers who receive a free Smart Sprinkler System upgrade will benefit by not only the convenience of the system, but will enjoy the substantial savings in the cost of running the system.

    Houston Pro Services is a family owned company that specializes in landscaping, and lawn sprinkler systems based in Houston, Texas. For further information, you may contact William Santamaria at 1-713-396-3320 or visit the website at http://www.houstonproservices.com.

    Egyptian Theatre will install sprinkler system - March 13, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    DeKALB Officials at the Egyptian Theatre are hoping to finish installing a building-wide sprinkler system by the end of August.

    Alex Nerad, the theaters executive director, said he is working with contractors to ensure a smooth installation, and to make it appear the sprinkler system was originally part of the building.

    We dont anticipate interrupting anything we already have planned, Nerad said.

    On Monday, the DeKalb City Council voted 5-1 to allow the Preservation of the Egyptian Theatre organization to spend $127,400 to install a sprinkler system using money previously earmarked for other theatre projects.

    The city had already allocated $374,000 to the Egyptian Theatre to pay for the air conditioning system, which leaders canceled after learning it would cost about $2 million.

    The city also allocated $100,000 in tax increment financing funds to the theater as a part of its annual pledge.

    First Ward Alderman David Jacobson, a frequent critic of how tax increment financing dollars are spent, cast the lone no vote Monday.

    Aldermen Kristen Lash and Ron Naylor, of the 3rd and 5th wards, respectively, were absent.

    City Manager Mark Biernacki said the funds remaining after the sprinkler system installation which could be almost $350,000 would be spent on a prioritized list of building improvements at the theater.

    We saw no reason to direct it to nontheater projects, Biernacki said. The money was already allocated to the theater, but for different projects than what was allocated for.

    Kenilworth fire at escalator manufacturer stopped by sprinkler system, quick firefighters - February 28, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    KENILWORTH A sprinkler system and a quick fire-department response stopped an intense fire from burning a massive commercial building where escalators are manufactured, said officials this morning.

    The fire started at 3:25 a.m. on the roof of the North Michigan Avenue building which is about 100 feet by 800 feet, said Chief Louis Giordino.

    About 40 feet of the roof was engulfed in flames at one point, Giordino said.

    But the sprinkler system was activated by the heat, and it kept the flames from spreading down to the building below as well as notifying the fire department automatically about the blaze, he added.

    It had a pretty good head start, but we got there quick and there was the sprinkler system, the chief said.

    The fire was brought under control about 4:15 a.m., Giordino said. The "massive" building was not occupied at the time and there were no injuries reported, he added.

    The cause is still under investigation, Giordino said.

    UPDATE: No Sprinkler System In Pemberton Manor Fire - February 28, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    SALISBURY, Md. - Fire Marshals confirm that an apartment that caught fire on Feb. 24th didn't have a sprinkler system.

    Investigators say the fire started on the second floor of Pemberton Manor apartment building, causing about $75,000 in damages and displacing 16 people.

    "The benefit of the sprinkler system, it's not so much to put the fire out, although it often does, they're more so designed to allow more time for people to get out," said Kirby Travers, Deputy State Fire Marshall.

    Travers also says Pemberton Manor was not in violation of fire safety code, since their complex was built years before and falls under the code set back when the building was originally built.

    We reached out to Pemberton Manor for comment, but we're still waiting for them to return our phone calls.

    Sprinkler system floods Meeteetse library - February 28, 2013 by Mr HomeBuilder

    More than 4,400 books were ruined and a school day canceled after a sprinkler system erroneously flooded a portion of the Meeteetse library on Sunday afternoon.

    The damage at the Park County-run library located inside the Meeteetse school was generally limited to a section containing Western novels and non-fiction books, along with a nearby school classroom (see photos at the bottom of this article).

    Meeteetse Assistant Principal Cory Dziowgo said the fire suppression system worked like its supposed to. Unfortunately, the system had been activated in error by a malfunctioning heating unit.

    There wasnt an actual fire, it just overheated, Dziowgo said.

    Park County Library Director Frances Clymer said the roof-mounted unit began pouring hot air into the library and the sprinkler valve closest to the air vent broke open.

    Then it spewed, I believe, over 1,000 gallons of water into the building, Clymer said.

    That wasnt because of a slow response time.

    Dziowgo who also is a member of the Meeteetse Volunteer Fire Department said the firemen had the sprinklers shut off within five to 10 minutes of the system tripping.

    Clymer praised Park County Buildings and Grounds, the Meeteetse school district facilities crew and Varney Clean Care for their prompt response after the flooding.

    They really got a handle on it very quickly, Clymer said. I was real impressed with their responsiveness.
