Fence Paint Color

One of the rules of condo-living is that common area colors and shapes have to match. If you are going to do touch-up painting on your fence (rather than wait for the management to do it) then you can match the correct color with the numbers found in the photo below. Take these numbers to Home Depot and they will make the paint the right color for you.

Easy Maintenance Reminder

I have heard that you should changing your air filter saves you electricity and money, and also keeps your air conditioning unit running longer and better. I discovered that having an inferior type of filter and not changing it often enough resulted in a very poorly functioning air conditioner. It cost me about $500 to have the unit acid cleaned and recharged. Now the A/C runs perfect and I am protecting the system with filters that I conveniently ordered online. There are a number of companies (just type in air conditioning filters into a google search) that will take your order online and ship the filters to your house. How much easier could it get?

Pictured: I thought that my old filter was still clean after a couple of months of use -- but next to a new filter I could see how dirty it was.
