eCompressedair.com (ECA) understands the ultimate taxing job that a compressor performs daily. The team at ECA considers it to be the heart of an operation. “Similar to eating heart healthy, a compressor needs to be maintained with the highest quality products and parts. Just one down day because of something preventable could potentially cost you thousands of dollars,” adds Brian Bronner (Technical Applications Specialist with ECA). With this in mind, eCompressedair.com has partnered with the world’s leading filter manufacturer, Mann & Hummel and their recent acquisition Purolator. They promise to offer nearly 10,000 new compressor air filters, oil filters, and separators, to name a few that MANN & Hummel can provide.

ECA will be fully introducing this line of filters in the coming months for customers requiring the highest quality filtration on their compressor equipment. From Atlas Copco to Zeks, eCompressedair.com already carries thousands of aftermarket parts for one’s compressed air needs. Every aftermarket product eCompressedair offers either meets or exceeds OEM specifications. Quality and safety are the top priorities when deciding what products ECA will offer their customers.

Increasing the MANN Filter product line assures eCompressedair is meeting their mission statement by offering the right air compressor parts. “Mann & Hummel offers extensive research and development that is unparalleled in the industry. Other competitors simply do not have these resources, or do not come close,” adds Bronner.

“When we first set out to offer compressor parts online, we declared that no matter the part it would be of the highest quality with the best price for our clients”, says Dave Matyseck, General Manager.

Some facts about ECA:

ECA has been offering compressor parts online for over a decade. They were one of the first to do so, and have now become the largest aftermarket quality air compressor parts supplier in the world. This allows ECA to keep thousands in stock, offering their clients the fastest shipping, most competitive prices, and the quality assurance customers need to keep their compressed air system running efficiently.

ECA website is very user friendly. Their site is simple to use. Just type in the OEM part number in the site’s search bar and add the filter/separator into the cart to checkout. Site users can explore their huge selections of various compressor parts and accessories.

Poll: Just 1 in 3 Know Wind Energy Depends on Fossil Fuels

Only 35 percent of voters know about wind energy’s dependence on fossil fuels, according to a poll recently commissioned by the Mackinac Center for Public Policy. Results of the poll also showed that even fewer, just 30 percent, of voters were aware of health and safety issues that may be associated with wind energy.

“Based on the way those polled responded to the questions, I think it is safe to say that — at best — only about one-third of voters are aware of wind energy’s alleged weaknesses,” said Mark Grebner, president of Practical Political Consulting. “Somewhat more respondents said they knew about wind energy’s dependence on fossil fuels than said they knew about the possible health and safety issues associated with wind energy. Correspondingly, more said they were surprised upon hearing about health and the safety issues associated with wind energy than said it surprised them to hear about wind energy’s reliance on fossil fuels.”

Grebner conducted the poll, which took place on April 1, 2, and 4 and consisted of calls to 4,000 voters likely to participate in the upcoming May election. Those polled were read three statements about wind energy in Michigan and asked (1) if they found it surprising, (2) if they hadn’t heard it before but didn’t find it surprising, or (3) if they already knew it.

Statement No. 1 was, “Wind is so undependable that fossil fuels have to be available to supplement it over 50 percent of the time.”

Nearly three in ten respondents (28 percent) said they found it surprising, 37 percent said they hadn’t heard it before but didn’t find it surprising, and 35 percent said they already knew about it.

Statement No. 2 was, “There’s a debate whether the use of wind to generate electricity should be redefined as a form of fossil fuel, because so little of the generation actually comes from wind.”

Of those polled, 39 percent said they found it surprising, 35 percent said they hadn’t heard it before but didn’t find it surprising, and 27 percent said they already knew about it.

Statement No. 3 was, “Health and safety problems with wind turbines have caused some neighbors to move into their basements, or sell their homes, or file lawsuits.”

Roughly two out of five (42 percent) said they found it surprising, 28 percent said they hadn’t heard it before but didn’t find it surprising, and 30 percent said they already knew about it.

When this portion of the poll was completed, respondents were asked, “How good of a job have news media done covering the debate over whether wind energy in Michigan is efficient and safe?”

Respondents could choose between three answers.

(1) They’ve done a good job in bringing the issue to the public’s attention.

(2) They’ve failed to adequately cover the issue.

(3) They’ve actually been concealing the issue from the public, by making false reassurances.

Only 19 percent said the news media had done a good job; 53 percent said it had failed to adequately cover the issue, and 27 percent said the news media has been concealing the issue from the public.

“Perhaps not surprisingly, when we compare those responses to the party preference recorded for each voter, we discover Democrats are more willing to believe in the media’s good intentions while the Republicans are more likely to smell a rat,” Grebner said.

Wind energy’s reliance on fossil fuels has been attested to by energy experts and reported by alternative news sources on both the political left and the political right. Possible health and safety issues associated with wind energy appear to have generally only received news coverage locally with the exception of a few articles and some radio coverage by larger news sources.

Mason County declared the Lake Winds wind plant south of Ludington out of compliance with its noise ordinance after residents filed a civil suit claiming the $250 million, 56-industrial turbine facility was making them sick. Consumers Energy took Mason County to court, lost at the Circuit Court level and the case is now in the Michigan Court of Appeals.

It appears that this story has only received coverage from the Ludington Daily News, Michigan Capitol Confidential and some radio stations.

Of the 4,000 likely voters called for the poll, 6.4 percent responded to at least one of the wind energy statements. That respondent rate is approximately the same as that of a PPC poll conducted last October poll.

Rolling Hills solar panel project is just the beginning for district

Photograph by George Sakkestad Rolling Hills Middle School in Los Gatos had solar panels installed in 2011, with more solar installations planned for the future. Marshall Lane Elementary School in Saratoga is also going solar.

When the Campbell Union School District installed solar panels at Rolling Hills Middle School in Los Gatos in 2011, it was the beginning of a now-celebrated energy conservation program.

The district received the Energy Leadership Award at the Green Schools & Colleges Summit held recently in Pasadena, and is also in line for special funding through the California Energy Conservations Assistance Act.

The Energy Leadership Award was for the net-zero energy multipurpose building at Blackford Elementary School. The building features rooftop solar panels, a full-glass front and skylights, daylight occupancy sensors to control lights, automated windows, thick insulation and a white roof. Energy is produced year-round by the solar panels and surplus energy is stored in a grid for later use. It’s expected to produce more than or equal to its energy consumption each year.

The Blackford multipurpose building is the first of eight energy efficient buildings the district plans to construct as part of its overall energy-saving strategy.

“Rolling Hills was the first school to have solar panels and we’ll be adding to that,” district spokeswoman Marla Sanchez said. “Marshall Lane will get solar, too.”

The district was also awarded a $7.5 million zero-interest loan for solar installation projects and energy efficiency measures that will be implemented at 11 schools. The loan was one of three awarded to school districts by the California Energy Commission. The projects are expected to save more than $480,000 a year.
