    How much did u pay for water softner?

    November 2013- paid $1700 for 1.5 cu ft system with Fleck 5800 valve and reverse osmosis system for the drinking water at the sink. I had considered the Eco Water from Costco, then got an education that you pay more for the proprietary systems/parts.

    Any tips lowering electrical bills

    We have SCE, and that was when we first moved here and didn't know about the discount they give you on having the box on the ac. We had them, but didn't realize it had to be activated. Now that I think of it that may have also been the same time we started using an old fridge in the garage for...

    Any tips lowering electrical bills

    Has anyone had any luck with solar window film? Our house in Dove Canyon is up on a hill, no neighbors behind, 2 story, 2zone a/c. We have a Nest thermostat upstairs, which helps. Considering the worst bill we had when we lived in FL was around $300 for running the a/c 24/7, I nearly had a...

    Crickets

    So that's what I was swatting in my garage the other day? It was on it's back and still moving, and near the door to the entrance of the house.  I'm in Dove Canyon, so I guess anything is possible around here.

    Baker Ranch in Lake Forest / Foothill Ranch

    We're on Bell Canyon Drive, in The Estates. Lot sizes were really important to us, since we were moving from an almost half acre corner lot in FL. The first house we ever saw was in Aliso Viejo, and we almost fainted at how tiny the backyards are there (and in Irvine).

    backyard renovation bid

    When we looked in Covenant Hills, there was a house that was simply amazing. (On Katy Rose? Adele?) The backyard was just to die for, with the pool, waterfall, covered patio, etc. A little out of our price range, but knowing what you want to do with your backyard would definitely not price you...

    Baker Ranch in Lake Forest / Foothill Ranch

    Welcome to Dove Canyon! My husband also works close to Baker Ranch, and we chose Dove because of the lot sizes and the views. I had originally wanted new, and saw how teeny tiny the lots were in other areas, so we went farther east and looked in here and Coto. Looks like you got a good deal...

    Recommendations for Gardening Service

    I had called Landscape Locators for some info a few months ago when my gardener started to not show up. I liked their premise - they have a bank of lawn service people, and they are assigned to you by the company. If you are not happy with them, they send someone else out. It's difficult to...

    Eco Water Systems - Water Softener Plus Water Purifier

    Lucky, did you ever get an EcoWater system installed? My husband is convinced that since it's through Costco, that it has to be a good product. I was quoted $5k, then a $500 Costco cash card, for their "refiner". I've also been looking at a Fleck valve through an independent dealer. More to the...
