Safeguard Notes Functionality of Wheelchair-Accessible Showers and Tubs Combos for the Disabled

    NORCROSS, GA, August 07, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When you are bound to a wheelchair, it is next to impossible to use a traditional tub or shower to clean yourself without assistance. Fortunately, Safeguard Tubs has created a line of bathtubs for the handicapped that remove the difficulties of standard tubs and showers, giving you your well-deserved independence.

California's premier supplier of handicap bathtubs, Safeguard Tubs, has listened to customers' needs and created easily accessible tubs for wheelchair users. These tubs are usually combined with an easy-to-reach handheld, wall mounted showerhead to make showering convenient and comfortable. Handicapped individuals can choose to use either the shower feature or the bathtub as they like.

This user-oriented functionality differentiates Safeguard Tubs' walk-in tub shower combos from their competitors' combos. Safeguard Tubs further distinguishes itself by creating customized tubs for each of its customers. Every tub Safeguard installs starts with a free in-home consultation that helps to determine the unique needs of each customer. The tub is then designed around these requirements, creating the perfect walk-in or roll-in tub for each individual customer.

"We want to ensure that each of our customers' unique needs are easily met with their customized Safeguard Tub," says an employee of Safeguard Tubs. "Wheelchair-bound individuals should be able to have the freedom and ease of taking a shower or a bath without having to rely on others, and our tub and shower combinations have made that possible for them."

The Finest Homes are Adorned with Plantation Shutters, Notes Eclipse Shutters

    NORCROSS, GA, August 09, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The plantation shutters provider, Eclipse shutters, notes that the products they sell are featured on some of the most stunning properties in the world. Traditional and elegant, plantation shutters originated on sprawling plantations in the south during the early years of the United States. Since people living back in these days did not have the luxury of modern air conditioning and artificial lighting, plantation shutters provided home owners with the best of both worlds. They are large and can be fully extended outward to let light and breezes in. Today, they are regarded as a timeless classic and have an aesthetic charm that is simply unmatched by modern window treatments, notes the indoor shutters supplier.

Homeowners looking for a functional yet stylish solution for their window covering needs will be pleasantly surprised with the fine collection Eclipse Shutters offers. According to Shannon Hodges, Director of Marketing for the plantation interior shutters manufacturer, "There is just something about the wide louvered design of plantation shutters that makes them so irresistible. They definitely make quite an impression no matter the room they are installed in, although in my opinion, they look particularly beautiful in kitchens and family areas, rooms where homeowners typically want a lot of natural light." The indoor shutters dealer also notes these window treatments are an excellent choice for people who want to save on heating and cooling costs. These shutters can be custom-made to fit the exact size and shape of any window in your home, which makes them incredibly energy-efficient.

Eclipse Shutters sells a complete line of indoor shutters. To learn more about their products and services, please visit http://www.eclipseshutters.com.

Eclipse Shutters Notes Advantages of Having Faux Shutters that are Always in the Sun

    NORCROSS, GA, August 12, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The indoor shutters dealer, Eclipse Shutters, would like to take a moment to talk about the benefits of installing faux shutters on your windows. Fading is the biggest problem people have with installing real wood window treatments, especially those which are exposed to the sun for long periods of time. While this issue does not pose a problem immediately, it can lead to cracking of the paint and overall deterioration of the material's surface quality over time. Chances are that homeowners who buy indoor shutters do so for their appearance as well as functionality. If left untreated, the fading and discoloration that will occur as a result of UV ray exposure can be a real eyesore.

On the other hand, notes the indoor shutters dealer, with faux shutters you don't have to worry about a thing. According to Shannon Hodges, Director of Marketing for the plantation shutters manufacturer, "Faux shutters are essentially a 'set and forget' type of product. They are extremely low-maintenance and look just as good as their real counterparts. Homeowners won't need to worry about or hassle with having to repaint them later on, which saves time and money." They also note that the composite material faux shutters are made from is durable and long-lasting; these shutters will easily last many years without fail. Is it any wonder why nearly half of all the shutters sold in the country are faux?

Eclipse Shutters has been a premiere dealer of indoor shutters for over 20 years. To learn more about the faux shutters they sell, feel free to visit http://www.eclipseshutters.com.

Popularity of Plantation Shutters Continues to Rise, Notes Eclipse Shutters

    NORCROSS, GA, August 07, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Eclipse Shutters, one of North America's largest manufacturers of custom made indoor shutters, is pleased to have found that plantation-style shutters are more popular than ever and have become a requested amenity in homes available for sale.

Indoor shutters for windows have been a popular addition to the home since they became fashionable in the court of King Louis XIV of France. Their timeless beauty and effortless functionality have made this centuries old trend a lasting one.

Modern homeowners understand that having plantation shutters installed on their windows improves their home in several ways. The most obvious way is that they increase the beauty of the home, both inside and outside. These interior shutters provide a classic grace that merges well with nearly any personal aesthetic. Less obvious is the way that plantation shutters save homeowners money on heating and cooling costs by insulating their home during summer and winter.

These benefits have made plantation interior shutters a desirable commodity in the strongly buyer-friendly housing market. Buyers are insisting on having these popular shutters installed in potential purchase properties, and sellers are quick to oblige since plantation shutters boost their property's value.

"It's been wonderful to see plantation shutters growing more and more popular," says Shannon Hodges, Director of Marketing at Eclipse Shutters. "We believe they are a fantastic addition to any home, and we love that so many homeowners and home buyers agree."

Notes from the Driverless Car Summit

Please update your browser to the most upated version. Update Now From the September 2012 issue of Motor Trend  |   Autonomous cars by 2022? That's the question posed by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International's (AUVSI) Driverless Car Summit held recently in Detroit. Whether you consider the idea of robotic cars fact or science fiction of the type that's always a decade from reality, the lesson from this convention is that the technological change is inevitable. AUVSI describes itself as the world's largest non-profit devoted to unmanned systems and robotics, including military vehicles and aircraft. Proponents of driverless cars point to reduced stress in daily commutes and more productivity. Autonomous cars also will give you more time to Google a moveable feast of websites. The online search monolith has consistently declined comment to this and other publications about its driverless car program ("Trend," June 2011), but Chris Urmson, Google Incorporated's tech lead on the driverless car program, gave some details.
