Going “down the drain” is a good thing!
Convenience inventions are only convenient when they work.
If you have a garbage disposal, you know how convenient they can be. Whisking food items down the drain in seconds when you’re cleaning up after all the holiday (or any other) meal.
But, if your disposal isn’t working as well as it once did, it can cause drains to work slowly and eventually plug up. Often times with years of wear, disposals will begin to be so loud you can’t even hear uncle Harry yelling at the football game on TV.
Replacing a disposal is not a big deal. We’ve helped tons of do-it-yourselfers save money and improve the performance (and volume) of their disposals. If you don’t have one, we can even walk you through the process of installing a disposal.
The new Evergrind disposal by Insinkerator is a top quality machine that can make your life a lot easier. Additionally it would make it much easier to hear what your family members are yelling at the TV. Hopefully you’ll see that as a plus.
Hot Water Dispensers – Making Life Easy!
Depending on your age, you may find this hard to believe; BUT, there was a time when the only way you could change the channel on your TV was to get up, walk to the set, spin a knob to the next channel to see what was there. If it wasn’t what you liked you had to stand there clicking the channel dial until you found something you DID like. Here’s the part younger folks might find hard to believe; it was just accepted as being the way it is. Some devices are like that. The old way seems ok until you try the new one for a while and then you can’t imagine going back.
Come in to a Grover Electric and Plumbing Supply and get yourself a hot water dispenser. You’ll soon feel like the only person on the block with a TV remote. It’s one of those “What did we do before we had this thing?” kind of devices. Want some tea? Hot water for a recipe? Some instant oatmeal or hot chocolate? Push a button and there it is!
As to installing your hot water dispenser, it’s not difficult and we can walk you through the process. It’s what we do. We help do-it-yourselfers be do-it-yourselfers. Sometimes we help people who aren’t do-it-yourselfers find out they can do a lot of things themselves anyway.
Don’t think you need a hot water dispenser? Spend a week changing channels manually … it might change your mind!

Your Fall Home Checklist … Get Ready For Winter Weather
Sorry to break in here where while you’re admiring all those pretty fall colors but fall does bring on some other things that require our attention. It’s the season where we do some things that we appreciate not having to do later.
First up: Disconnect your hoses from those outdoor faucets before they freeze and break things. It might be a good time to look into some other options for protecting outdoor water supplies as well. We have a few ideas about that.
Second thing: Ceiling fans. They’ve been cooling for the summer (if they’re spinning the right direction) so now its time to reverse them and get them distributing the heat. HERE’S A TIP; dust them before you reverse them or you could end up throwing out a cloud of whatever they’ve been collecting all summer.
Third thing: You’ll be firing up the furnace now. (If you haven’t already!) So this is the time to make sure you’ve got a nice clean furnace filter. We have a big selection of filters to make sure your furnace doesn’t work any harder than it has to this winter.
Last but not least: There’s a lot more darkness now so make sure those outdoor lights are working correctly. If you have a timer on those lights, you’ll want to make sure it’s set to be shining when needed.
Did we just make our to-do list a little longer? It’s what we’re here for.
