Depending upon the local jurisdiction, your plans will be reviewed by

multiple departments and thus the need for multiple sets of plans. While

the building department will review the plans for conformance to building

code requirements, the planning department will review the plans fo

architectural and zoning requirements and the engineering department

will review the plans for infrastructure requirements.

Most people are aware of the building department and the service thatdepartment provides, but few are aware of what service the planning and

engineering departments provide. What this means for most homeowners

is a big surprise when it comes to the cost of a building permit or the

length of time it takes to gain approval of the plans that were submitted

In order to take the surprise out of your next building project remember

there are three primary departments that will review your plans for three

different areas of concern. Each department has their own predetermined

fee structure for the service they provide. The building department reviews

plans for Life Safety requirements as they relate to fire safety, building

code compliance, materials and proper assembly methods.

The planning department reviews plans for zoning requirements andconformance to locally established municipal code guidelines such as

proximity to property lines, setbacks, overall size of the lot and how

much area of the lot is being covered by your project, building height and

viewshed requirements. Proximity to high noise areas such as railroad

tracks, freeways, overhead aircraft easements or primary arterials and

whether or not the proper decibel levels (acoustics) will be met. Given

that we live in a beautiful coastal area, the planning department is also

concerned with proximity to wetlands and riparian (creeks and rivers)

areas.

The engineering department reviews the plans for infrastructure

requirements and how your project will impact items like curb, gutter and

sidewalk, driveway aprons, slopes of roadways and access easementsstreet side retaining walls and the impact of your project on surface

drainage and wastewater. They are also concerned with the location of

utility easements, property corners and historic property boundaries.

Most design professionals are well versed in navigating the requirements

of each department and can assist you in planning for your next project

Whether its a lot split, building on a sloped site, adding a retaining wal

to gain extra yard space, or a simple bedroom or kitchen extension take

the surprise out of unexpected permit expenses and lengthy approva

timelines by planning to meet the requirements of all three departments

By Robert Adame

When applying for a building permit have you ever wondered why you need to submit three or fou

sets of plans instead of just one? After all, arent you just applying for a building permit?

Options include standard minimum efficiency storage tank heaters, Energy Star storage tank

gas water heaters, high-efficiency gas and electric heaters, different type of tankless wate

heaters, Hybrid on-demand water heaters, products which move into the condensing

space, and the re-emerging technologies of electric heat pump and solar water heater. Awater heater is one of the longest-lasting appliances in the home with warranties available

on some of the tankless and hybrids that far exceed other appliances. Since it is a long

term investment, investing in super high-efficiency water heaters can make sense. Fo

instance hybrids, properly installed tankless units, and solar water heating systems offer

rapid paybacks. This in part due to lower operating costs, but when combined with federa

tax credits and other state and local rebates, its an even more attractive investment. While

the homeowner will pocket hundreds of dollars in energy savings the first year, the savings

will increase in years to come as energy cost continues to climb.

A hybrid water heater combines the flow capacity of traditional tanks with the continuity

of modern tankless to supply consistent endless hot water with good consistent pressure

For example: The Eternal hybrids burner is dual activated by both a thermostat (similar to a

tank) and flow sensing (similar to a tankless). This intelligent control means Eternal has no

start up lag, to waste water and is compatible to all water saving devices and Water Sense

shower heads.

The Hybrid description is sometimes expanded beyond just one product to incorporate

various components into combination systems. For example, you can combine solar panels

storage tank, radiant floor heating and one Eternal Hybrid water heater to give endless ho

water and space heating to a home. Combinations like this greatly enhance annual energy

savings.

Hybrid is simply the best characteristics of both tank and tankless. A condensing mode

with higher efficiency ratings that will perform like a tankless in the long-draw scenario and

like a tank in the simultaneous/multiple fixture draw scenario with a built in buffer tank. You

dont need the increased BTUs that the larger tankless units need to provide hot water on

the-fly. This is where Hybrids perform at higher efficiency ratings, on the lower burn cycles

which is where most residential applications cycle most. Some Hybrids have stainless stee

construction for longer warranties (up to twenty years). Also no pressure loss with multiple

fixtures running and theres no wasting water. Hybrids can perform two or more functions

with special connections and controls you can operate radiant heating, solar back up wate

heating, and easily adapt to thermal, geothermal, or other renewable energy sources. One

drawback to both Tankless and Hybrid are that they both need to have electricity to run the

control panel. Although minimal power is used, if there is a power outage there is no ho

water (unlike previous generation gas tank water heaters).

I can go on and on about positives and negetives about each type of water heater system

on the market today, but the bottom line is each home is different - not just in size or how

the pipes run but also what the habits are from the people who live there. So when the

time comes to consider changing out the water heater in your home or business, conside

all of your options because after all this is a decision that can improve your carbon footprin

(energy usage) and help sustain our community.

By Bobby Rya

Not so long ago replacing a hot water heater was a no-brainer. Just remove the old tank and install a new tank, like for like

Today plumbers and plumbing contractors can offer current customers a full menu of replacement options from a basic

gas or electric storage tank unit through a growing list of hybrid heaters. What is happening right now is the beginning

of an explosion of new options in water heating for each homeowner. One of the most important attributes of plumbing

contractors is Doing the right thing for their customers. Progressive plumbing contractors expose their customers to

the options available and to the possible energy saving, water saving, and long term money saving available to them.

realtors

buying & sellinghow to pot a ood rator

Selling or purchasing real estate can be a tricky and stressful process, and hiring the right REALTOR to guide you can makall the difference. This article discusses the key characteristics that every good REALTOR possesses. Some qualities arerequired in all professions, but a few are especially pertinent to real estate. Look out for these qualities to determine whethyou are in capable hands.

First and foremost, your REALTOR should behave professionally during the time he or she is working for you. A relationshithat is too friendly or relaxed may mean that the realtor is not working as hard or taking you as seriously as possible. If theagent works from a home office, he or she should not expect you to stumble through a maze of toys or a dirty house in ordeto carry out business. Be on the lookout for casual or sloppy dress or demeanor; the agent will likely take the same careconducting your business as they do with their personal appearance.

Your REALTOR should also have the knowledge to help you navigate the process successfully. In addition to knowing thestate and local real estate laws and requirements, they should also have experience and in-depth knowledge of the areayou are buying or selling in. Agents who thoroughly know the area schools, hospitals, and recreation areas will make a bigdifference to you, the client.

A good REALTOR is also someone who loves to work with people - even on the bad days. You should never feel rushed orhurried by a REALTOR, and you should always be made to feel that he or she has your best interests at heart. A polite andfriendly realtor is a sign that you are the focus of their work. Good REALTOR will always be straightforward and honest. Anyour agent should never leave you wondering if the promised results will be delivered.

Finally, one of the most important characteristics of a good REALTOR is that he or she goes the extra mile. A REALTOR whtakes care of little details like keeping you posted on your sale, or answering the phone with a smile in their voice are theREALTOR to keep and be grateful for. Remember that prompt and effective communication is essential to any relationship,a REALTOR who does everything they can to show they appreciate your business deserve to be appreciated.
