Insurance companies do require cameras in some cases otherwise they'd cancel coverage. It happened to a client of ours a few years back. At this time I don';t know of a single insurance company that offers a discount for security cameras. Most however, do offer a discount on alarm systems. The...

Having Installed numerous CCTV systems in the last 6+ years I must say I can't wait till compression/hard drives and computer based DVRS can record and handle the high amount of info of HD cameras at a reasonable cost. Most high res cameras are not even at 800X600 but slightly lower res. Most...

It is the spray glue they use to hold the fibers together. Sometimes the colour of the insulation also corrosponds to the R-rating or value. Yes I watch "How It's Made" and I don't care Who knows it. That episode was on yesterday lol

I've seen a bijion frese that small little white dog that normally weighs 13-16lbs, well, I've seen the 38lb version at a customers place once. Funniest looking thing Little legs sticking out. The legs actually bent out(bow legged)
