Round Rock, TX: Now more than ever, your plumbing - toilets, taps, and pipes - have to work. But, fortunately, in these times of COVID-19, homeowners in Austin Texas can turn to veteran plumber Robert Breithaupt for immediate help.

Robert and the RC's Plumbing Company team take enormous lengths to protect them and their clients from the spread of the novel coronavirus during call-outs, with them suiting up in protective equipment before entering homes.

While the extra layer gives comfort for all, Robert is more than aware of the problems his clients across Travis County can be exposed to when it comes to plumbing issues.

So whether it's a blocked toilet, a dripping tap, sewer blockage or more underlying problems in the pipes, this licensed master plumber is always on hand to ensure any plumbing or electrical issues are handled correctly.

The company has recently added "no-contact video inspections" to their service portfolio. This  allows customers to have a licensed plumber or electrician evaluate the problem without stepping foot in their home. 

"Our team will work around a client's schedule and find the most convenient time to call, diagnose the issue and provide the correct solution," commented Mr Breithaupt.

"There's no job too big or too small that our team of experts won't tackle, whether it's a leaking faucet, a failing water heater or an electrical panel that needs to be replaced."

Their team is background-checked and are cross-trained in the latest industry standards and best practices, while also having extensive services knowledge to make homes safer and more comfortable.

The company is adept at surveying houses for electrical inspection, as well as upgrading outdated wiring or circuits, providing a home backup generator and installing surge protection to protect electronics and appliances from power surges.

The team covers areas including Austin, Buda, Cedar Park, Elgin, Georgetown, Jonestown, Lago Vista, Leander, Manor, Pflugerville, and Round Rock.

Turning to hire a plumber or an electrician during the times of coronavirus, Mr Breithaupt urged residents to ask what precautions are taken by a home-services contractor, that they are licensed and to check their reviews.

He added: "Here at RC Plumbing, we are prepared to offer our services, help and advice to the community at this highly stressful time, we are licensed, and have fantastic testimonials to back up our high service standards."

Hutto, Texas- April 9, 2020- The Coronavirus is at the forefront of almost everyone’s mind around the world. With numbers still climbing, caution must be taken when social interactions occur. For homeowners, HVAC problems are again happening, requiring home service professionals like Grande Air Solutions to make house calls.

Grande Air Solutions is a family-owned and operated HVAC company providing repair, installation and inspection services to the Hutto, TX area. Treating every customer like family, safety is a top concern. Their team takes all necessary precautions to ensure they are doing their part to prevent and slow the rapid spread of COVID-19. Their team has been going the extra mile, through screenings and personal protective gear to ensure both homeowners and customers are safe.

Screenings are a primary first line of defense. For employees, they will be screened before each shift to determine whether they have been in contact with confirmed positive cases. They will also be unable to work if determined they have a fever, cough, or other symptoms. When customers call in for service, they will be asked similar questions, including if they have had any contact with a positive COVID-19 person, or if they have any symptoms. While the HVAC contractor is somewhat dependent on the honesty of their customers, they will be taking necessary precautions on site too.

Wearing full-scale PPE throughout the entire service call is essential. Many home service workers are used to wearing protective suits and gear during their regular line of work.  When a customer contacts Grande Air Solutions for repairs, their technicians arrive suited up, covering their usual work attire. They will also be outfitted with gloves and masks, for additional protection. Following every job, hand washing and sanitizing is a must.

A representative for Grande Air Solutions had this to say on their efforts to combat the spread of COVID-19, “Our top priority is our customers and staff. We want everyone to remain safe throughout this challenging time while getting the heating or cooling services they need.”

During this time, service calls are limited. Regular maintenance requests can be delayed for the safety of homeowners and technicians. However, for emergency services that can’t wait, like a broken air conditioner, which affects the comfort of the home, these calls can be taken, and a repair or replacement be made. While there is a stay at home order in effect for most of the control, it’s essential that safety be a top priority. Grande Air Solutions continues to deliver outstanding heating and cooling services to the Hutto, TX area, using protocols that ensure homeowners and employees are safeguarded against the Coronavirus.

Toronto, Ontario, April 09, 2020 -- UGE International Ltd. (TSXV: UGE) (OTCQB: UGEIF) (the "Company" or "UGE"), a leader in commercial and community solar energy solutions, is pleased to announce that its global solar experience has surpassed 400MW, as one of many milestones reached in Q1 2020.

The following summarizes the Company's milestones and other updates from Q1 2020. The Company experienced the strongest quarter in its history for new Confirmed Orders, driving a 50% growth in Company backlog, which now exceeds USD$45 million.

US Market

UGE's US market continued to experience increased activity in Q1 2020. For projects in deployment, UGE reached final completion on a 100kW system in Long Island, New York, as well as mechanical completion on a 130kW project in Montvale, New Jersey. A second Montvale project is nearing the same milestone, which will be completed in Q2 2020.

Meanwhile, UGE confirmed eight new projects in the US, with an estimated project value of over USD$20 million. This was highlighted by UGE's recent announcement, which included an agreement to develop, build, and finance its largest US project yet, a community solar project in Westchester, NY.

UGE also announced that it closed project financing for two New York-based projects. Interested New York City-based energy users are able to subscribe to the projects through the following URL: www.ugei.com/community-solar-marketplace.

Philippines Market

UGE's momentum in the Philippines continued, as well. The Company reached final completion on four projects totaling 1.4MW, and substantial completion on two projects, both of which are expected to reach final completion by the end of Q2 2020.

UGE's wholly-owned subsidiary, UGE Philippines, also signed agreements for two new projects in Q1 2020. The clients were Cebu Institute of Technology University, for a 97 kW solar energy system, and Lite Port Properties Inc., for a 200 kW project at a commercial mall complex in Bohol.

Engineering and Consulting Services

Meanwhile, UGE's consulting division, "UGEngineering", completed several assignments, both for external clients and UGE's US and Philippines project development subsidiaries. The division completed assignments for three external clients, including Issued for Construction drawings for 18MW of projects in New York State and front end project engineering design in Ontario. In Q2 2020, the division looks to complete assignments for its first project located in California, repowering projects in Ontario, and microgrid projects in Africa, as well as the increasing list of projects for UGE's US and Philippines subsidiaries.

UGE International

At the corporate level, UGE celebrated the 400MW milestone by recording its strongest quarter ever for Confirmed Orders at over USD$20 million, and estimates that its project backlog is now between USD$45-50 million. The Company also neared closure of its Canadian EPC subsidiary as creditors voted to accept UGE Canada RE Ltd's proposal on February 14, 2020. Because of COVID-19, the court's approval of the Proposal has been pushed back to a later date, to be determined. The Company also will release its 2019 audited financial statements before the end of April 2020.

Lastly, the Company continues to manage through the ramifications of COVID-19. Although construction progress has slowed based on local restrictions, each of the Company's subsidiaries have proactively taken steps to temporarily decrease spending and will focus on accelerating schedules once such local restrictions are lifted. New project development continues at a rapid pace, as demonstrated by the significant number of new projects won in recent weeks. UGE expects to move several of these new projects into the construction phase before the end of the year.
