Listen to these HVAC experts: make sure your HVAC system is properly maintained!

Atlanta, GA - USA | July 28, 2020 -- Spring has sprung, and the weather is finally getting nicer. Beautiful days are upon us, the trees are in bloom, and if it weren’t for the COVID-19 epidemic, we’d be spending a lot more time outside.

The seasons change every year, and yet every year, there’s someone whose HVAC system breaks down during the hot summer months because they didn’t get proper maintenance done.

Listen to these HVAC experts: make sure your HVAC system is properly maintained!

“Most HVAC problems arise because nobody was looking at the symptoms before they became major problems,” says Frank Mutz, President and CEO of Moncrief Heating & Air Conditioning. “If people just had a trained eye to look at their systems, we’d be seeing much fewer system breakdowns during critical times.

The Mutz family has been running Moncrief Heating & Air Conditioning for decades, and during that time, they have cemented themselves as Atlanta’s premier heating and cooling experts. Frank Mutz himself is a certified master electrician, a master plumber, and a conditioned air expert; his team works with everything from air heating, geothermal systems, water heating, ductwork, and much more.

“On a brutally hot summer day, the cooling system in your home has to work extra hard to keep your house comfortable,” Mr. Mutz explains. “When your AC is running at the red line, it could completely blow! Now you’ve got a sweltering hot home, and you gotta pay a steep repair bill or fix it. These things are, in many cases, completely avoidable just by doing your yearly maintenance!”

We asked Frank what homeowners can do to prevent these issues.

“Replace your air filters, clear out dust and debris from the system, and make sure the area around your air conditioning unit is clear of leaves, grass, rocks, and anything else that could get in the way of air flow,” explains Frank. “Next, have a trained HVAC contractor take a look at your system and tune up what needs to be tuned up.”

“We’re offering two specials, both to help homeowners and business owners keep their HVAC systems up and running. We want to make it easy and affordable for everyone in the Atlanta area to keep their living and working spaces comfortable.”

“Our first special is geared toward Atlanta homeowners. We’re offering 40% off a Spring Tune Up. We’ll inspect, clean, and maintain your cooling system to get it ready for winter. Much less expensive than a repair bill, and you get to be comfortable all summer long.”

“Our second special is a free $50 off our Total Service Care Plan. In this plan, we take care of your system year round. Our best-in-class maintenance plan helps prevent heating and cooling emergencies all year round by maximizing equipment reliability and energy efficiency.”

Downtown Los Angeles, CA, USA, July 29, 2020 -- Andrew Jones Auctions achieved phenomenal results across multiple categories in its Design for the Home & Garden auction held online, July 26th. The auction was 95 percent sold and grossed $1.6 million. The top lot was a spectacular still life oil on canvas painting by Nicolai Fechin (Russian, 1881-1955). It changed hands for $262,500.

Bidding for the circa 1925 painting, titled Still life with flowers and fruit, opened above the high estimate figure of $100,000 and quickly climbed to its final selling price. Fechin was a master of color and composition. The painting was from the collection of Mary and Lou Silver from Indian Wells, California. Most lots in the 261-lot auction were from the Silvers’ outstanding collection.

The Silver collection included important fine art, sculpture, micro mosaics, antiques, art glass, design and a Steinway grand piano. Also offered were items from the estate of Ruth Harvey of Bel Air, California and fine silver and antiques from a Northern California estate. Various fine art selections and exquisite objects struck a chord with decorators, collectors and millennials.

“We are grateful that, as a small and nimble business with steadfast clients, we have been able to adapt and bring important, researched works to the market in a more virtual manner,” said Andrew Jones, president and CEO of Andrew Jones Auctions. He added, “The interest garnered and the prices reached are very encouraging. Pivoting to online-only auctions has not hurt us.”

To prepare for this auction, Andrew Jones Auctions decided to open for preview by appointment only for three days. “We restricted the number of clients that could be in the gallery to four at a time and took every precaution including temperature checks, mask requirements, hand sanitizer and constant surface cleaning,” Mr. Jones said. “All in all, clients were delighted to be able to preview and were impressed with the lengths we went to, to protect the health and safety of all.”

With no in-room audience, a full complement of phone bidders stationed on distanced tables and active online platforms brought in buyers from around the world. Around 3,500 people registered to bid online, via AndrewJonesAuctions.com, Invaluable.com and LiveAuctioneers.com. In addition, 200 in-house registrations for absentee and telephone bidding were also recorded.

Following are additional highlights from the auction. All prices quoted include a sliding scale buyer’s premium.

The sale realized consistently strong results from start to finish. The collection of Mary and Lou Silver featured an impressive Italian micro mosaic table top attributed to 19th century mosaicist Cesare Roccheggiani ($45,000); a Marc Lalique glass ‘Cactus’ center table ($42,500) and a vibrant indoor scene by Helen Maria Turner titled Meditating by the Window ($40,000).

Fine silver shone with an impressive pair of trays by the master silversmith Paul Storr engraved with an elaborate coat of arms from the estate of Ruth Harvey, making $30,000 and $27,500, respectively. Also, a Roman marble bust of a barbarian from a private London collector doubled its presale high estimate, selling for a respectable $50,000.

A collection of early English silver from a California estate was led by a rare set of four George II tumbler cups by Edward Feline, London, which made $13,750. The same estate saw a set of six George III weighted candlesticks by John Carter bring $13,750. From another owner, an Indian Colonial five-piece tea and coffee service commanded $10,000.

Andrew Jones Auctions’ next big event will be a Fine Jewelry, Watches and Timepieces Auction slated for Tuesday, Sept. 15. Included will be additional offerings from the Mary and Lou Silver collection, to include dazzling pieces by Jorge Adeler, Asprey, Buccellati, Bulgari, Cartier, Patek Philippe, Petochi, Van Cleef & Arpels, David Yurman and many others.

Genetic determinism states that our physical & behavioral characteristics are determined by our genes. Under this view, what we are today is a product of our genes. If we carry fat gene (A allele of FTO gene), you are going to be obese. However on the other hand if we have R allele of ACTN3 gene, we are going to be super champ athlete. Such claims are just false & utter nonsense. If a person has two A Allele in obesity gene- it is linked to increase appetite, high cravings for food & 70% more likely exposed to obesity risk. However, it does not mean that your body composition is restrained by your DNA sequence. The issue with genetic determinism is that it equates all human beings with their social, moral & behavioral complexity with their genes. However, in practice we are much more than genes.  Here is why:

We are impacted by environment & culture: You would have probably noticed that tall folks would have either one of them or both parents as tall. Your height is highly impacted by genetic components. However, you cannot give the entire credit to genes. Besides genes, diet also plays a major role. So even if you are the child of Tennis player Maria Sharapova, you would not grow as tall if you follow a poor diet. Environment factors such as diet & nutrition have a major role to play in determining your physical characteristics. The same logic applies for body weight & composition.  Even if you have double AA in its obesity gene, it is not necessary that you will be obese or overweight.  Your intensity of workout is encoded by your genetic code. So does that mean that healthy body weight is the outcome of your genetic code only? Not really, it is actually a combination of both your genes, your environment & lifestyle that shall influence your body weight.

A single gene does not determine our body weight: It is highly unlikely that a single gene can have a massive impact on physical traits. Complex activities such as athletic ability, capacity to build muscle & tendency of being overweight are determined by multiple genes. As a matter of fact your body weight is impacted by a lot of interacting factors such as metabolism, appetite, circadian rhythm- all of these are influenced by lot of different genes. Therefore, you cannot evaluate one gene-FTO gene & determine that you are destined to be fat. However, knowing that you have a fat gene answers a lot of questions about your diet & gives insights about the intelligent choices you can adopt to maintain a healthy weight.

Increased risk for obesity does not mean higher penetration of Obesity gene: Genes which increases the risk of being overweight cannot be completely penetrated. With the exception of rate obesity syndrome, most obesity related genes have low to moderate penetration. It essentially means, people who have high genetic risk to obese does not have to face life long struggle with the extra bulge. To be put in simple words, those who have obesity genes- weight is not entirely not their fault but there is something they can do. Therefore a DNA test can provide insights about genetic risk to obesity as well as provide intelligent nutrition & exercise performance choices that help them to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
