Grand Opening of Syracuse Island

Friday, June 21st, 2019

syracuse-island-grand-opening-flyerWe have a long history of serving our community here at Rentmeister Total Home Service. Recently, we’ve set our sights on the Syracuse Island Splash Pad. The inspiration behind the Splash Pad is Chloe Bennett. Chloe is a local child here in Syracuse with Cerebral Palsy and West Syndrome. Living with these conditions has limited Chloe’s ability to speak, walk, and play in traditional playground settings. The Splash Pad is fully accessible to all children of all abilities.

In the past, we’ve participated in the Syracuse Days Pancake Breakfast to raise funds for Chloe’s Sunshine Playground. We love Chloe’s spirit, her cause, and our community so we loved the idea of helping fund the Splash Pad too!

We’d like to invite you out on Saturday, June 22nd from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Centennial Park for the grand opening of the Splash Pad. The event is completely free and open to the public. It includes food trucks, free snow cones for children, and other activities. Celebrate the start of summer with our Rentmeister Total Home Services family this weekend!

The Heat Pump Difference: Consider This for Your Next Comfort Installation

Tuesday, September 5th, 2017

icon of the sun next to a snowflakeThere’s a cooling system on the market that is quickly rising in popularity as a way for homeowners to improve their comfort and HVAC efficiency. It’s the heat pump—a system that works much like a standard air conditioner. We mean that it circulates chemical refrigerant between two sets of coils, one indoors and one outdoors, in order to create the process of heat exchange.

Heat exchange means literally that heat is being moved from one area to another. An air conditioner works by taking the heat from inside your home and expelling it out doors. But with a Syracuse, UT heat pump installation, you have the power to reverse the process for effective heating, too. With just a simple adjustment to your thermostat, you can enjoy year-round comfort from this climate control installation.

A Dirty Air Filter and Its Impact on Your Home

Monday, July 17th, 2017

dirty-air-filter-impact-homeYou’ve probably heard this before—or at least, we hope you have—but it’s imperative that you change your air filter on a regular basis. Why is that? You might assume that a dirty air filter is a problem due to the contaminants it sends through the air, and this is the reason we keep stressing the importance of changing it. This is only somewhat correct, however.

Your HVAC systems’ air filter is there not only to block allergens from moving back into your airstream, but mainly to block particles from damaging the inside of your air conditioner by pummeling it or jamming the fan. When an air filter is dirty and clogged, however, it can do just as much damage to your Syracuse, UT air conditioning system. Keep reading to learn how a dirty air filter affects your home.

Serving Breakfast to Benefit Chloe’s Sunshine Park

Friday, June 16th, 2017

chloe-sunshine-park-pancake-breakfastAs has become a tradition for Rentmeister Total Home Service, on Saturday, July 1st we will be sponsoring a Pancake Breakfast benefiting Chloe’s Sunshine Park. We’d like to invite our wonderful, valued customers, as well as family and friends, to join us.

Proceeds from the breakfast benefit Chloe’s Sunshine Playground Project, named after one of our youngest Syracuse City residents, Chloe Bennett. Chloe was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy and West Syndrome. This limits her ability to speak, walk, and play on traditional playground equipment.

From her limitations, an idea was born–to create a place where Chloe, children like her, and their families could play together. In May of 2015, this dream became a reality. Chloe’s Sunshine Playground is an accessible park including features that enable ALL children to play side by side.

We look forward to seeing you on July 1st, 7:30-9 AM, and urge you to visit Chloe’s Sunshine Playground (1800 S 2000 W, Syracuse) with your own family!
