J&A Fence Supports CADES and Its Courageous Pacers Program

AVONDALE, PA - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
J&A Fence, a family-owned fence store and installation contractor serving Chester County, has announced its continued support of CADES, a Swarthmore nonprofit that serves children and adults with intellectual and physical disabilities, and its Courageous Pacers program.
CADES, which stands for Children and Adult Disability and Educational Services, provides education and therapy for people living with conditions such as cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, and autism. Its programs follow individuals through every stage of life, from early intervention for infants and toddlers to a school for children and day and residential programs for adults. Based in Swarthmore, in neighboring Delaware County, CADES supports hundreds of children and adults across the area each year.
The Courageous Pacers program is organized by the CADES physical therapy team and built around students of all abilities. Children and adults who use wheelchairs or have limited mobility move through a course on adaptive therapy equipment that supports them as they walk, joined by their teachers, therapists, and members of the community. The event raises money for the programs and equipment that make that kind of participation possible, much of which falls outside what public funding and most family budgets can cover.
CADES holds the walk each year, and it draws local volunteers, students, and businesses that turn out to help raise the money the therapy team depends on. Coverage of past events has shown students taking steps with support they do not have on an ordinary day, a moment their families and therapists point to as the reason the program matters. The adaptive equipment and trained staff behind those steps carry costs that fall largely on donations.
Money raised through the walks goes toward adaptive playgrounds designed for safe use by children with physical and intellectual disabilities and toward specialized equipment for people who use wheelchairs. For a company whose daily work is building fences that make backyards safe places for children to play, the cause sits close to home. J&A Fence supports the Courageous Pacers walks as part of its involvement in the communities where its crews work, and Giunta has said the company intends to keep backing the program in the years ahead.
Owned by Joe Giunta, J&A Fence has operated in the region since 2012 and serves Chester County along with northern Delaware and Cecil County, Maryland. The company is a registered Pennsylvania Home Improvement Contractor, license PA096517, and holds Screened and Approved, Top Rated, and Elite Service designations from HomeAdvisor, a national home services platform that awards them based on background checks and customer reviews. It remains family operated, with Giunta preparing estimates himself and his sister running the office.
"You spend your days building fences that keep kids safe in their own backyards, and then you meet families who are fighting just to get their child onto a playground at all," said Joe Giunta, owner of J&A Fence. "What those therapists and parents do makes our part look small. We keep showing up for it because it is happening right here, in the same county where we make our living."
Homeowners can learn more about J&A Fence and its work in the area by calling 484-368-2206 or visiting jafence.com. Photos of the company's completed fence projects are available for review on its Google Business Profile.

Mod-Tronic Instruments Provides Guidance on Types of HVAC Temperature Sensors

BRAMPTON, ON - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
MOD-TRONIC Instruments Ltd., a Canadian distributor of temperature measurement and process control instrumentation, has published expanded technical guidance explaining the differences between the main types of HVAC temperature sensors and how each performs in commercial and residential heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration systems. The guidance, available through the company's HVAC/R sensor resource page, is intended for building automation contractors, mechanical engineers, and facility maintenance personnel responsible for specifying temperature measurement equipment.
The material addresses a recurring source of confusion in the field: three distinct sensing technologies are commonly grouped under the same category, yet each behaves differently in service. Resistance temperature detectors, thermocouples, and thermistors all convert thermal conditions into an electrical signal, but they differ in accuracy, stability, response time, and usable temperature range.
Platinum and nickel-iron RTDs are described as the preferred choice where long-term stability and repeatable accuracy are required, which makes them common in building automation systems and air handling units. Thermocouples cover the widest temperature span and are typically applied where conditions exceed the practical limits of other sensing elements. Thermistors, generally supplied in 2252 or 10K ohm configurations, offer rapid response in duct temperature monitoring and zone control applications where speed matters more than absolute precision.
"Contractors frequently ask us whether one sensor type is simply better than the others, and that isn't the right question," said Steven Ruple, President of MOD-TRONIC Instruments Ltd. "An RTD that performs beautifully in a chilled water loop may be the wrong specification for a duct application where response time drives the control sequence. What we want people to walk away with is a clear sense of how each technology behaves so they can match it to the job in front of them."
The guidance also covers form factor, which the company identifies as an equally consequential decision. Duct sensors are available in averaging and point-sensing configurations, with averaging elements suited to large cross-sections where stratification would otherwise distort a single-point reading. Outside air sensors, room air sensors, pipe surface sensors, fluid immersion probes, sump tank sensors, and refrigeration and freezer sensors each carry different mounting requirements and environmental ratings.
Freeze protection receives particular attention. Combination freeze-stat sensors are used to detect low-temperature conditions across a coil face and trigger protective action before damage occurs, a function the company notes is often specified late in a project despite its consequences for equipment reliability.
Installation practice forms a further section of the material. Sensor placement away from direct sunlight, supply air drafts, and adjacent heat sources is described as fundamental to accurate temperature measurement, since a correctly specified sensor installed in an unrepresentative location will report readings that mislead the control system. Adherence to manufacturer mounting guidance, appropriate immersion depth for fluid applications, and proper thermal contact for pipe surface sensors are each identified as factors that materially affect measured accuracy.
Calibration is addressed as an ongoing requirement rather than a one-time step. NIST-traceable calibration establishes a documented reference at commissioning, and periodic verification allows sensor drift to be identified before it degrades climate control performance or energy efficiency. The company also notes that matched system calibration, in which a transmitter and sensor are calibrated together as a pair, can improve overall loop accuracy in applications with tight tolerances.
Environmental conditions further narrow the selection. Humidity, condensation, chemical exposure, vibration, and temperature extremes all influence which sensor construction and enclosure rating will survive in a given location, and hazardous area installations introduce additional approval requirements such as CSA and FM explosion-proof and flame-proof ratings.
"Energy performance in a building is only as good as the data the control system receives," Ruple said. "A half-degree error in the wrong place compounds across an entire season of operation. Getting the sensor selection right at the specification stage costs almost nothing compared with correcting it after the building is occupied."
MOD-TRONIC Instruments Ltd. distributes temperature sensors, transmitters, controllers, and related instrumentation from sixteen manufacturers, serving building automation, industrial process, and climate control markets across Canada. The company operates from Brampton, Ontario, with branch coverage in Halifax, Montreal, Winnipeg, Regina, Calgary, Edmonton, and Vancouver, and maintains stocking inventory of commonly specified HVAC sensor configurations.

Mountaintop Web Design Launches New Site for Leevers Supermarkets

GREENWOOD VILLAGE, CO - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Mountaintop Web Design has announced its partnership with Leevers Supermarkets, a 100 percent employee-owned grocery retailer, on the launch of a newly redesigned website. The site serves as the company's central digital platform across its store locations in Colorado, the Philadelphia area, and the greater St. Louis area, and is designed to reflect the retailer's history dating back to 1938.
The project addressed Leevers' need for a unified online presence capable of representing several distinct store banners and a wide range of communities across three metro markets. Mountaintop Web Design led strategy, design, and development throughout the engagement, working with the Leevers team to organize the site around its store locator, community initiatives, and employee ownership model. The redesign was also shaped by the company's stated mission of providing high-quality groceries at affordable prices while fostering connection through employee ownership, a set of priorities the new site was built to communicate clearly to visitors from the outset.
"Working with the Mountaintop team was a great process," said Jon Koontz, President and COO of Leevers Supermarkets. "We're thrilled with the way our new website turned out."
Leevers Supermarkets was founded in 1938 by Norm Leevers in Devils Lake, North Dakota, and is now led by the fourth generation of the Leevers family. The company operates under several banners, including Save A Lot, Save A Lot y Mas, Ahorra Mucho, Locavore, and El Mercado de Colorado, tailoring each store's product assortment to the neighborhood it serves. Leevers is structured as an employee stock ownership plan, giving eligible employees shares in the company and a direct stake in its growth. That ownership structure also informs the company's approach to hiring, with career opportunities framed around building a team of employee-owners rather than filling traditional retail positions. The company is headquartered in Castle Rock, Colorado.
Mountaintop Web Design approached the redesign with an emphasis on making Leevers' multi-banner, multi-market footprint easy to navigate for shoppers, prospective employees, and community partners alike. Particular attention was given to the site's store locator tool, which allows visitors across five states to find their nearest location by banner and region. The build also accounted for Leevers' multicultural and bilingual customer base, reflected in banners such as Ahorra Mucho and El Mercado de Colorado, ensuring the site's structure and navigation serve a broad range of shoppers.
The redesign also prioritized mobile performance and cross-device consistency, given that many shoppers locate nearby stores from a mobile device. Mountaintop Web Design noted that for a multi-banner grocery retailer operating across several regions, a clear and reliable digital experience plays a direct role in how effectively customers can find and engage with their neighborhood store.
The new site also incorporates content highlighting Leevers' work with local vendors and its participation in community events within the neighborhoods each store serves. According to Mountaintop Web Design, translating an employee-ownership model and a hyperlocal community focus into a cohesive digital experience required messaging that felt authentic to each banner and market rather than a single generic corporate voice applied across the board.
The website is now live and accessible to the public. Leevers Supermarkets intends to use the platform as its primary hub for store information, community engagement, and career opportunities, with updates expected as the company continues to grow across its Colorado, Philadelphia, and St. Louis markets.

SteelToe Digital Publishes 2026 Guide to Leading Septic Companies in America

KENNESAW, GA - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
SteelToe Digital has published a new online guide, "The 20 Best Septic Companies in America (2026)," which highlights 20 septic service companies across the United States and outlines the key factors homeowners should consider when selecting a septic contractor. Released in January 2026, the guide is intended to provide educational information for property owners researching septic maintenance, repairs, and installations.
The new resource reviews companies serving a variety of markets and explains the criteria used during the selection process. According to the guide, companies were evaluated using publicly available information, including licensing, service offerings, customer feedback, and evidence of consistent business practices. The article also explains why written estimates, insurance coverage, and clear communication remain important when choosing a septic contractor.

"Many homeowners only begin looking for a septic company after a problem has already developed," said Alex Laldin, Marketing Director at SteelToe Digital. "The goal of this guide is to provide practical information that helps people compare providers and understand what to look for before scheduling service."
In addition to featuring companies from different regions of the country, the publication outlines several qualities commonly found among established septic contractors. These include maintaining appropriate state licenses, providing written documentation after inspections or repairs, carrying insurance coverage, and offering services beyond routine septic tank pumping. The guide also encourages homeowners to verify credentials and request written estimates before work begins.
The article provides general information about common warning signs that may indicate septic system problems. These include slow drains throughout the home, sewage odors, standing water near the drain field, and plumbing backups. The guide notes that these conditions may require an inspection by a licensed septic professional and explains that early evaluation can help homeowners better understand the condition of their systems before problems become more serious.
SteelToe Digital also includes educational information about routine septic maintenance. The guide explains that pumping schedules vary depending on household size and tank capacity and describes what homeowners can generally expect during a septic inspection. According to the article, a typical inspection may include examining tank components, measuring sludge levels, checking the condition of the drain field, and providing a written report that documents the findings.
The publication also highlights the importance of reviewing customer feedback carefully. Rather than relying solely on overall ratings, the guide recommends looking for reviews that describe specific service experiences and explain how technicians communicated their findings and completed the work. It also encourages homeowners to confirm licensing and insurance directly with any contractor before scheduling repairs or installation work.
While the guide focuses primarily on homeowner education, it also examines how septic companies build their online presence. The article notes that many established contractors maintain accurate business listings, collect customer reviews, and provide clear information that helps homeowners find qualified providers when service is needed. The publication explains that online visibility has become increasingly important because many customers begin searching for a contractor only after a septic problem develops.
The release of the guide reflects SteelToe Digital's continued publication of educational resources covering residential service industries. The company has published similar articles featuring businesses in other home service categories while providing information intended to help consumers make informed decisions based on publicly available facts rather than advertising claims.
The company states that the guide is intended to serve as an informational resource rather than an endorsement of any individual contractor. Homeowners are encouraged to verify licensing requirements, insurance coverage, and service availability in their state before hiring a provider, as regulations and qualifications vary by jurisdiction.
SteelToe Digital publishes educational content covering local service industries, digital marketing, and topics that affect home service businesses and consumers. The company maintains an online library of articles that explain industry practices and provide research-based information to help readers better understand local service markets.

Solar Power Company Lumina Solar Delaware Serves Homes and Businesses

Newark, Delaware - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Rising electricity costs and growing interest in renewable energy are prompting more Delaware property owners to research which solar power company to work with, and Lumina Solar Delaware is serving that demand for residential and commercial customers in Newark, New Castle County, and communities across the state. The company designs and installs solar energy systems for homeowners and businesses that want to generate their own electricity on site.
A solar power company manages the stages of a solar project that a property owner would otherwise coordinate separately. At Lumina Solar Delaware, that begins with a site assessment covering roof condition, sun exposure, and energy usage, followed by custom system design, permitting, the physical installation of panels and inverters, coordination of required inspections, and system activation with ongoing performance monitoring. Handling those stages under one roof means a single point of responsibility from the first evaluation to a working solar energy system. The installation timeline varies with system size and local permitting requirements, and the company coordinates with municipal offices and utility inspectors in each jurisdiction it serves so that a system is not switched on before the required approvals are in place.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, solar power ranks among the fastest-growing sources of electricity generation in the United States, supported by falling equipment costs and rising interest in clean energy. The Solar Energy Industries Association reports that solar capacity across the country has expanded substantially over the past decade as more homes and businesses adopt the technology. Research from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory has documented continued gains in panel efficiency and reductions in the cost of solar energy systems, developments that have widened the pool of properties where solar is a practical option and increased the number of solar companies competing for that work.
Founded in 2018, Lumina Solar has completed more than 6,000 installations and employs more than 150 NABCEP-certified professionals across a service area covering Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, DC. Unlike solar companies that subcontract installation work, Lumina Solar Delaware operates in-house teams, and its technicians are licensed and insured. The company installs solar panels, inverters, and battery storage, allowing a property owner to add stored solar power for evening use or backup during a grid interruption as part of the same project. Residential projects typically center on rooftop arrays sized to a household's usage, while commercial installations are engineered around the larger electrical loads and roof or ground space of a business property.
Property owners comparing a solar power company against other solar companies are commonly advised to look at certification, licensing, local installation history, and how much of the work the company performs itself. Certification through recognized programs such as NABCEP and a verifiable record of completed local projects are often cited as indicators that a solar energy company can carry a project through permitting and inspection to code. Manufacturer warranty coverage on panels, inverters, and batteries remains a standard point of comparison, and Lumina Solar Delaware reviews equipment specifications with each customer during the design stage.
Delaware homeowners and businesses evaluating a solar power company can request more information about site assessment, system design, installation, and battery storage options.

Muse Treatment Publishes New Clinical Resource Examining Integrated PTSD and Substance Abuse Treatment Through Evidence-Based Recovery Care

LOS ANGELES, CA - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Muse Treatment has published a new educational resource exploring the relationship between post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and substance use disorders, expanding its online library with clinically supported information designed to help patients and families better understand integrated treatment approaches. The article, "How PTSD and Substance Abuse Are Treated Together in Los Angeles," reviews current evidence-based practices for addressing co-occurring disorders while emphasizing the importance of coordinated behavioral healthcare that treats both conditions simultaneously rather than independently.
The publication arrives as healthcare organizations continue to recognize the close relationship between trauma and addiction. According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), trauma exposure is common among people receiving behavioral healthcare, and untreated PTSD may contribute to substance use, relapse risk, and poorer treatment outcomes. The National Center for PTSD, part of the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, similarly reports that co-occurring PTSD and substance use disorders frequently require integrated treatment strategies that address both conditions concurrently to improve long-term recovery.

The newly released educational resource explains that PTSD and addiction often reinforce one another. Some people begin using alcohol or drugs to temporarily reduce symptoms such as anxiety, intrusive memories, hypervigilance, or sleep disturbances, while ongoing substance use may worsen psychiatric symptoms over time. The article discusses how comprehensive clinical assessments help behavioral health professionals identify co-occurring conditions and develop individualized treatment plans that address both mental health and addiction throughout the recovery process.
The publication complements Muse Treatment's Los Angeles treatment resource, which outlines the organization's continuum of behavioral healthcare services. According to the organization's website, patients may receive medically supervised detoxification, psychiatric evaluation, dual-diagnosis treatment, medication management when clinically appropriate, family counseling, relapse prevention planning, trauma-informed behavioral therapies, and continuing recovery support. The website also describes multiple levels of care, including medically supervised detox, residential drug rehab programs, Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), outpatient services, and aftercare planning that allow patients to transition through treatment based on ongoing clinical assessment.
This approach reflects recommendations published by the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM), which advises that treatment intensity should be matched to each patient's medical, psychological, and social needs while providing continuity throughout recovery. SAMHSA also recommends integrated treatment for co-occurring disorders because addressing mental health conditions and substance use disorders together is associated with improved engagement, reduced relapse risk, and better long-term clinical outcomes compared with treating each condition separately.
The educational resource further explains that trauma-informed care has become an important component of modern behavioral healthcare. According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), PTSD is a treatable mental health condition, and evidence-based therapies, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and other trauma-focused interventions, can significantly reduce symptoms when incorporated into individualized treatment plans. The publication describes how trauma-informed clinical practices seek to create safe therapeutic environments while helping patients develop healthy coping strategies that reduce reliance on alcohol or drugs.
For people searching online for drug rehab near me, the article provides educational guidance explaining how clinicians determine the appropriate level of care through comprehensive assessments rather than standardized treatment models. Patients experiencing both PTSD and substance use disorders may require medically supervised detoxification, structured residential treatment, outpatient behavioral healthcare, psychiatric services, or continuing recovery support depending on their medical history, symptom severity, and recovery goals. The publication emphasizes that individualized treatment planning remains central to evidence-based addiction medicine.
Muse Treatment also describes therapeutic services that may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma-informed counseling, family therapy, psychiatric care, relapse prevention education, life-skills development, and treatment for co-occurring mental health disorders. According to the organization's website, treatment plans may also incorporate drug rehab with MAT (medication-assisted treatment) when clinically appropriate for opioid or alcohol use disorders, alongside behavioral therapies and medical supervision. This integrated model reflects current national recommendations supporting multidisciplinary care for complex behavioral health conditions.
People researching drug addiction treatment centers often compare providers based on the availability of comprehensive clinical services, evidence-based therapies, psychiatric expertise, and continuity across multiple levels of care. Muse Treatment's newest publication explains how coordinated treatment may include residential drug rehab programs, outpatient services, behavioral therapies, psychiatric support, and drug rehab with MAT (medication-assisted treatment) when medically indicated. The educational resource also recognizes that many people evaluating affordable drug rehab centers seek information that explains not only treatment availability but also the clinical principles that guide effective long-term recovery.
Research published by the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) consistently demonstrates that addiction is a chronic but treatable medical condition and that sustained engagement in evidence-based treatment is associated with improved recovery outcomes. National clinical guidance likewise supports integrated behavioral healthcare for people experiencing co-occurring mental health and substance use disorders, reinforcing the importance of coordinated care that addresses the full scope of a patient's clinical needs rather than isolated symptoms.


Patients and families throughout Westwood, Westwood Village, Little Holmby, Holmby Hills, Bel Air, Brentwood Glen, Sawtelle, Century City, and Cheviot Hills can access Muse Treatment's educational resources while learning about addiction and behavioral healthcare services available through its Los Angeles programs. By continuing to publish clinically informed content supported by nationally recognized healthcare organizations, Muse Treatment seeks to improve public understanding of PTSD, substance use disorders, trauma-informed care, and evidence-based recovery pathways. The organization's expanding educational library reflects an ongoing commitment to helping patients make informed treatment decisions while better understanding the role of integrated behavioral healthcare in supporting long-term recovery.

STM Trucks & Machinery Supplies Fuso and Iveco Across Duty Classes

August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
STM Trucks & Machinery supplies Fuso and Iveco truck models across light, medium, and heavy-duty classifications as an authorised dealer for both manufacturers. The family-owned dealership serves commercial transportation requirements for businesses throughout New South Wales from three locations.
The range covers Fuso's commercial vehicle lineup, from compact delivery trucks to heavy-duty models, alongside Iveco's range of commercial vehicles built for varied applications. STM's three locations in Smeaton Grange, Queanbeyan West, and Unanderra provide access to these model ranges, supported by the company's service infrastructure. Operators can evaluate multiple vehicle options within the same brand family.

Duty-class coverage across the range reflects demand from commercial customers seeking single-source arrangements for fleet requirements. The range allows businesses to source vehicles from urban delivery applications through to long-haul transportation through a single authorised dealer network. Model lineups spanning duty classes suit growing businesses that require different vehicle specifications as their operations change.
"Our customers ask for truck lineups that handle their operational requirements," said a spokesperson for STM Trucks & Machinery. "Carrying Fuso and Iveco across all duty classes means we can put a customer in the right vehicle and back it with our own service department. Customers build a relationship with one dealer instead of managing several vendors."
The vehicle range is supported by STM's service infrastructure, which includes workshop facilities equipped for vehicles up to B-Double specifications. The company's service operations extend beyond standard maintenance to include 24/7 emergency support and on-site repair services for commercial fleet operators. Customers purchasing vehicles across different duty classes receive the same support regardless of vehicle requirements.
STM Trucks & Machinery maintains a spare parts inventory for both Fuso and Iveco vehicles, with deliveries running twice daily across Metropolitan Sydney and each afternoon to the Southern Highlands and Wollongong. The parts operation supports the vehicle range with genuine manufacturer components and aftermarket alternatives. The company's parts department stocks components across all duty classifications, so maintenance and repair requirements can be addressed regardless of vehicle size or application.
"Operators need vehicles that match the work, whether that's urban delivery or heavy-haul operations," the spokesperson added. "Carrying both Fuso and Iveco means customers find what suits them inside brand families they already know. Sourcing multiple vehicle types from one dealer also simplifies warranty management, service scheduling, and parts procurement."
The company’s workshop operations support the vehicle range with factory-trained technicians working across both Fuso and Iveco systems. Its service capabilities include routine maintenance, major repairs, and specialised diagnostics for commercial vehicles across all weight classifications. That technical coverage runs from light-duty urban delivery vehicles through to heavy-duty long-haul applications.
STM Trucks & Machinery is the authorised dealer for multiple commercial vehicle manufacturers. Commercial customers can access the Fuso and Iveco range through STM's three locations, with sales and service support available six days per week. Customer facilities include four courtesy vehicles, rest facilities, and a waiting area. Each location handles both sales and service.

MedonChina Launches Health Checkup and Wellness Travel Concierge Service for International Visitors in China

Shanghai, China - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
As China's inbound travel sector experiences historic growth, a new concierge platform is helping international visitors combine their trip with preventive health checkups, traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) wellness, and dental care. MedonChina, a Health Checkup China concierge service, connects travelers, expatriates, and business visitors with trusted healthcare resources in Shanghai, Shenzhen Hangzhou, and other major cities in China, while providing full English language support throughout the journey.
With visa free entry now available to travelers from 75 countries and stays of up to 240 hours permitted under recent policy expansions, more visitors are extending their China itineraries to include wellness experiences alongside sightseeing and business travel. According to China's National Health Commission, foreign patients made approximately 1.28 million visits to hospitals nationwide in 2025, a 73.6% increase over three years, with international travelers citing cost and efficiency as leading reasons for seeking care in China. MedonChina Health Checkup China services are designed to fit seamlessly into these extended visits, whether travelers have a single free day in Shanghai or are planning a multi day wellness journey across Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hangzhou.

"Thailand has wellness retreats. Korea has beauty tourism. China offers preventive health checkups and TCM wellness, all in one journey," said a spokesperson for MedonChina. "Our role is to make that journey seamless for international visitors who may not speak Chinese, aren't familiar with local healthcare systems, and simply want a trustworthy, English supported way to take care of their health while they travel."
MedonChina's offerings span two product lines in Shanghai, Shenzhen, Hangzhou and other major cities. The first is a set of flexible add on services, including health checkups, dental screenings, and TCM wellness sessions such as acupuncture, cupping, and traditional consultations, designed for visitors who are already planning a trip to China and want to incorporate a half day or full day wellness experience without disrupting their itinerary. These add ons are particularly popular among business travelers with limited time, expatriates unfamiliar with local hospital systems, and travelers from countries where routine dental and health screenings carry significantly higher costs.
The second is a series of multi day wellness journeys that pair Shanghai's international healthcare resources with Hangzhou's traditional wellness culture, combining preventive health checkups, TCM experiences, tea culture, and slow travel through West Lake and its surrounding scenery. These journeys are designed for travelers seeking a more immersive experience that blends modern health screening with China's traditional wellness heritage, a combination the company believes is unmatched by other medical tourism destinations such as Thailand, Korea, or Malaysia.
Throughout every experience, MedonChina coordinates appointment scheduling, private transportation, English speaking concierge support, and translated summaries of medical reports for reference after travelers return home. This addresses some of the most commonly cited barriers for international patients in China, including language difficulties, unfamiliar payment systems, and uncertainty about how to navigate hospital procedures.
The company emphasizes that it operates as a coordination and travel concierge service, not a medical provider. All diagnoses, treatments, and medical decisions remain the responsibility of licensed healthcare institutions and practitioners that MedonChina works with. MedonChina's role is limited to travel planning, appointment coordination, language support, and concierge services surrounding the healthcare experience.
China welcomed over 82 million inbound visitor trips in 2025, a 26.4% year over year increase, alongside a growing wave of social media discussion among international travelers comparing healthcare costs and efficiency in China favorably against their home countries. This growing visibility has contributed to increased interest in health checkups as a natural addition to a broader travel itinerary. As demand grows, MedonChina Health Checkup China continues expanding its network of add on services and multi day journeys to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse group of international travelers.
"We're seeing a shift from simply visiting China to travelers actively planning health related activities into their trip," the spokesperson added. "Our goal with MedonChina is to make that easy, transparent, and comfortable, whether someone wants a single health checkup during a business trip or a full wellness journey across Shanghai and Hangzhou."
About MedonChina:


MedonChina provides medical concierge coordination for international clients in China, including health checkups, TCM wellness, and dental care support. The company helps English-speaking travelers, expatriates, and business visitors navigate local healthcare systems in cities such as Shanghai, Shenzhen and Hangzhou.

All Pro Thornton Deck Builders Extends Custom Deck Services to Lafayette

THORNTON, CO - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
All Pro Thornton Deck Builders has extended its custom deck design and construction services to homeowners in Lafayette, Colorado, giving residents of the Boulder County community direct access to a regional contractor that has spent years building outdoor living structures across the north Denver metropolitan area. The service expansion took effect this quarter and covers new deck construction, deck replacement, structural repair, and related outdoor living additions throughout Lafayette and adjacent neighborhoods.
The move reflects sustained residential construction activity along the U.S. 287 corridor between Broomfield and Longmont, a stretch that includes Lafayette, Louisville, and Erie. Lafayette alone has grown to a population of roughly 30,000, and the city has issued a steady volume of residential remodeling permits over the past several construction seasons as older housing stock reaches the point where original decks require replacement. By extending coverage into the market, All Pro Thornton Deck Builders is responding to inquiries from Lafayette property owners who previously had to work with contractors based farther east in Adams County.
The extended services include design consultation, permit coordination with the City of Lafayette, and construction of decks built from pressure-treated lumber, cedar, redwood, and composite materials such as Trex, TimberTech, and Fiberon. The company also handles ancillary work including pergolas, railings, stairs, and deck lighting, and it repairs storm-damaged and aging structures that no longer meet current International Residential Code standards for load capacity, guardrail height, or ledger attachment. All estimates for Lafayette projects are provided on site, and the company follows the same insured and permitted workflow used across its existing service area.
"The extension into Lafayette formalizes work that has already been happening on a project-by-project basis, and it allows the crew to schedule Boulder County jobs alongside projects in Thornton, Westminster, and Broomfield without treating them as one-off travel jobs," said David Miller, Owner of All Pro Thornton Deck Builders. He added that pricing, warranty terms, and material sourcing for Lafayette homeowners will match what the company offers in its core service area.
Lafayette has a mix of housing types that shapes the kind of deck work most commonly requested. Neighborhoods such as Indian Peaks, Centaur Village, and Beacon Hill contain single-family homes built between the late 1970s and the early 2000s, many of which have original wood decks that are now between twenty and forty years old. Industry service-life estimates from the North American Deck and Railing Association place the functional lifespan of a typical pressure-treated deck at ten to fifteen years and cedar decks at fifteen to twenty years, meaning a substantial portion of the local inventory is at or past the point of replacement. Composite decking, which carries longer manufacturer warranties, has become a common replacement choice in the area because of Colorado's intense ultraviolet exposure and wide temperature swings.
Permitting is another factor behind the extension. The City of Lafayette requires a building permit for any deck attached to a residence or elevated more than thirty inches above grade, and inspections are handled through the municipal building division rather than through Boulder County. All Pro Thornton Deck Builders will help with filing the permits directly on behalf of Lafayette clients and coordinate the required footing, framing, and final inspections, a process that Miller said reduces the administrative burden on homeowners unfamiliar with local code requirements.
The company reports that initial demand from Lafayette has centered on full deck rebuilds rather than new construction, consistent with the age of the local housing stock. Project timelines typically range from two to four weeks for standard residential decks, depending on material availability and inspection scheduling, with composite projects taking slightly longer because of lead times on specialty boards and railing systems. Seasonal booking for spring and summer construction is already underway, and the company expects Lafayette projects to make up a meaningful share of its 2026 residential workload.
Miller said the extension is intended as a long-term commitment to the Lafayette market rather than a temporary service radius adjustment, and that follow-up warranty service and repair work will be handled under the same terms extended to homeowners in the company's original service area.

RedFlame Digital Issues Guidance on Local SEO for AI Search

Roanoke, Virginia - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
RedFlame Digital, an SEO and AI-visibility agency, has issued new guidance describing how local businesses can position themselves to appear inside AI-driven answer engines such as ChatGPT and Google AI answers. The guidance formalizes an approach the agency terms answer engine optimization, a discipline that adapts established local SEO practices to the way AI systems now retrieve and summarize information about service providers.
The guidance responds to a shift in how prospective clients locate professionals. A growing share of searchers open an AI assistant, ask a question in plain language, and act on the short list of businesses the tool names, often before visiting a traditional results page. According to RedFlame Digital, that pattern changes what determines visibility, because an answer engine returns a small set of named sources rather than a page of ten blue links, and a business either appears in that answer or it does not.

The agency organizes its recommendations around a single principle, which is consistency of information across the places AI systems read. RedFlame Digital advises local businesses to keep a firm name, address, phone number, and service description identical across the website, Google Business Profile, and directory listings, so that an answer engine encounters one clear and repeated set of facts. The guidance also covers technical items that help automated systems parse a site, including structured data, clean page architecture, and content written to answer the specific questions a searcher is likely to ask.
Answer engine optimization, as the agency defines it, does not replace conventional search work. The guidance frames it as an extension of local SEO, content development, and Google Business Profile management, applied so that the same underlying facts surface whether a person searches on a map, on a standard results page, or inside an AI assistant. RedFlame Digital notes that the businesses already maintaining accurate listings and well-structured content tend to be the ones AI tools cite, which places disciplined local operators in a strong starting position.
"The place people look for a local business has moved, but what earns a mention has not," said Travis Godec, Founder of RedFlame Digital. "An answer engine repeats the sources it trusts, and it trusts a business that says the same true thing about itself everywhere it appears. Our guidance is about making that consistency deliberate rather than accidental, so a firm shows up when someone asks an AI tool who to call."
The guidance applies most directly to law firms and to medical and other local businesses, categories in which reputation and local visibility carry significant weight in a prospective client's decision. In those markets, RedFlame Digital observes, a searcher frequently asks an AI tool for a recommendation, then researches the names it provides, which rewards businesses that maintain a consistent presence across search results, maps, and AI answers rather than a single ranked page.
RedFlame Digital also addresses measurement, an area the agency describes as still maturing. Because AI answers vary between tools and change as models update, the agency recommends that businesses track which sources AI systems cite for their category over time, alongside conventional metrics such as organic rankings and map-pack visibility. The guidance encourages treating AI search visibility as an ongoing program rather than a one-time task, on the reasoning that answer engines continually re-read the web and adjust which sources they name.


The agency positions the guidance as part of its answer engine optimization service, which sits alongside its local SEO, content, Google Business Profile, and technical SEO work. Additional detail about the agency and its approach is available at RedFlame Digital.

Vehicles For Veterans Helps Car Donation Foundation Top $200M

ST. LOUIS PARK, MN - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Car Donation Foundation d/b/a Vehicles For Veterans marks the milestone alongside longtime partners including Fisher House Foundation, Team Red, White & Blue, Homes For Our Troops and other American veterans charities
Car Donation Foundation, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit parent of Vehicles For Veterans, has surpassed $200 million in lifetime vehicle donations — one of the largest milestones reached by any vehicle donation program in the country. Vehicles For Veterans, one of CDF's three donation programs, has directed proceeds from donated cars, trucks, boats and motorcycles to a national network of American veterans charities since 2010.

"Two hundred million dollars is a big number, but what it really represents is a couple hundred thousand people deciding to hand over their keys instead of calling a scrap yard," said Loren Dorshow, Executive Director of Car Donation Foundation. "Every one of those vehicles became something a veteran could feel — a service dog, a month of rent during a hard stretch, mental health care that might not have been within reach otherwise. That's what our donors made possible, one car at a time."
Vehicles For Veterans has donated nearly $70 million in proceeds from donated vehicles to help fund service dogs, emergency housing assistance, mental health care, adaptive equipment and other programs supporting veterans and their families as they transition to civilian life or recover from service-related injuries.
Rather than donating a single car to a single veteran, Vehicles For Veterans sells each donated vehicle and directs proceeds to a national network of veterans charities, benefiting nationally recognized organizations including Fisher House Foundation, Homes For Our Troops, Team Red, White & Blue, Warrior Bonfire Program, Operation Homefront, Folds of Honor, Gary Sinise Foundation and many others.
Vehicles For Veterans is one of three vehicle donation programs operated by Car Donation Foundation, alongside Wheels For Wishes, which benefits Make-A-Wish and other children's wish and hospital charities, and Animal Car Donation, which benefits animal rescue organizations. Together the three programs account for the foundation's $200 million in lifetime donations.
Donations are not limited to cars. Vehicles For Veterans also accepts trucks, motorcycles, boats, yachts and RVs, with free pickup available anywhere in the country.
The program's beneficiaries also include K9s For Warriors, Hope For The Warriors, Semper Fi & America's Fund, the Travis Mills Foundation, Oscar Mike Foundation, American Warrior Partnership, Student Veterans of America and the Pat Tillman Foundation, along with the United Service Organizations and Tee It Up for the Troops.
"The entire Operation Homefront family celebrates with Vehicles for Veterans as they reach an incredible milestone of giving," said Retired Rear Adm. Alan Reyes, President and CEO of Operation Homefront. "We are deeply grateful for a decade of partnership and nearly $4.5 million in generous support, which has enabled Operation Homefront to provide critical housing, financial assistance, and recurring support programs that help military families realize a strong, stable, and secure future."
Donors can hand over the keys and let Vehicles For Veterans handle the rest — free pickup, paperwork and sale — with proceeds going toward veterans in need. More about how a donated vehicle becomes support for veterans is available at:
https://www.vehiclesforveterans.org/best-car-donation-program/
Having reached $200 million, Vehicles For Veterans is proud to keep growing its support for veterans nationwide, continuing to turn everyday vehicle donations into long-term help for the men and women who served.

Premier Medical Highlights Growing Role of the Family Doctor in Charleston SC

August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Premier Medical, a locally owned and physician-led healthcare provider, is drawing attention to the increasing importance of accessible family doctors for comprehensive, long-term care across the Charleston community. As patients seek continuity and coordination in their healthcare, the clinic is emphasizing how ongoing relationships with a dedicated family physician support better health outcomes over time.
Family doctors in Charleston, SC provide preventive care, maintain a detailed understanding of a patient's medical history, and tailor treatment plans to individual needs. According to the clinic, this model of care remains central to managing both routine wellness and chronic conditions, particularly as families look for a single, trusted point of contact for medical needs spanning multiple ages and stages of life.

Premier Medical operates two clinics located in James Island and North Charleston. Both locations offer extended hours and do not require appointments, an approach designed to make care more accessible for working families and individuals with unpredictable schedules. The provider offers urgent care, primary care, family doctor services, and pediatric care, and accepts insurance while offering affordable healthcare options.
The emphasis on family medicine reflects a broader shift in how patients approach their health. Rather than seeing different providers for isolated concerns, many patients benefit from coordinated care that considers the whole person over the long term. A family doctor helps manage chronic conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, and thyroid disease, while also providing routine check-ups, screenings, and referrals when specialized care is needed.
"A family doctor sees the full picture of a patient's health across years, not just a single visit," said Dr. Karey Breen, a physician with Premier Medical in Charleston, SC. "That continuity allows for earlier detection of concerns, more personalized treatment, and a level of trust that makes patients more comfortable seeking care when they need it."
The clinic notes that its family doctors provide ongoing, personal care for patients of all ages, coordinating everything from women's health and prescriptions to regular check-ups. Pediatric services extend that same continuity to younger patients, offering routine check-ups alongside treatment for more serious illnesses.
Dr. Breen added that accessibility remains a defining priority for the practice. "Care that is difficult to reach often goes unaddressed until a small issue becomes a larger one," she said. "By offering extended hours and walk-in availability, the goal is to remove barriers so that families in the region can maintain consistent, long-term relationships with their physicians."
Premier Medical describes its approach as genuine family medicine, with on-site owners actively involved in daily operations. The providers share a common belief in putting the whole patient first, avoiding distant off-site management and impersonal corporate policies in favor of personalized attention within the community they serve throughout SC.


Premier Medical is a physician-led healthcare provider based in Charleston County. The company operates clinics in James Island and North Charleston, offering urgent care, primary care, family doctor services, and pediatric care. With extended hours and no appointment requirement, the clinics are focused on making reliable, affordable healthcare accessible to patients across the region.

Watertight Homes Expands Damp Proofing Services Across Castleford Communities

Derbyshire, England - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Watertight Homes Ltd has expanded its damp proofing and property preservation services throughout Castleford and the surrounding areas, bringing more than two decades of specialist expertise to residential and commercial property owners across the region.
The company, established in 2000, now provides a comprehensive range of treatments to communities including Ashby, Crosby, Frodingham, Bottesford, Brumby, Messingham, Kingsway, Town Centre, Westcliffe, and Normanby. Services span rising damp treatment, penetrating damp treatment, basement damp proofing, cellar damp proofing, structural damp proofing, condensation control, mould prevention, humidity control, wall tie replacement, and timber treatment for woodworm, dry rot, and wet rot.
Damp problems can compromise the structural integrity of a property and contribute to health concerns for occupants. The expanded service coverage from Watertight Homes - Damp Proofing Castleford aims to address these issues through diagnosis and remediation carried out by trained technicians. Each project is preceded by a survey to identify the source and extent of the damp before a treatment plan is developed.
Mathew Milner, Managing Director of Watertight Homes, said the expansion reflects growing demand for property preservation services in the area. "Damp and timber decay are among the most common problems affecting older housing stock across Yorkshire, and many property owners are unaware of the underlying causes until visible damage appears," Milner said. "By extending our coverage across Castleford, the aim is to make professional diagnosis and treatment more accessible to households and businesses dealing with these conditions."
The company holds British Board of Agrément accreditation and is Triton approved. Completed work is supported by a ten-year guarantee, a measure intended to provide assurance regarding the durability of treatments carried out.
Beyond damp proofing, Watertight Homes offers basement conversions that transform unused cellar space into functional living areas, alongside basement waterproofing and basement tanking to protect below-ground rooms from water ingress. The company also carries out cavity wall tie repair and replacement, condensation treatment, wet rot treatment, and timber preservation for properties affected by fungal decay and wood-boring insects.
Milner noted that early intervention often reduces the scale of remedial work required. "A survey conducted at the first signs of damp can prevent minor issues from developing into significant structural concerns," he said. "The approach taken by Watertight Homes - Damp Proofing Castleford begins with understanding the specific conditions of each property rather than applying a single standard solution."
The company has served families and businesses across Leeds, Manchester, and wider Yorkshire for more than 20 years. Its work has drawn positive feedback, including five-star ratings recorded on Which?, reflecting standards of service and quality reported by past clients.


Watertight Homes Ltd is a property care and preservation company based in Leeds, West Yorkshire. Founded in 2000, the firm specialises in damp proofing, basement conversions, basement waterproofing, basement tanking, woodworm treatment, cavity wall tie repair, condensation treatment, wet rot treatment, and timber preservation for residential and commercial properties throughout the north of England.

Big Easy Renovations Publishes Homeowner Guide on Identifying Roof Hail Damage Before Filing Insurance Claims

NEW ORLEANS, LA - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Big Easy Renovations, a licensed roofing and renovation contractor, has published a detailed homeowner guide explaining how to identify roof hail damage and what steps to take before contacting an insurance company, releasing the resource as Louisiana moves through its most active hail period of the year.
New Orleans Roof Has Hail Damage (And What to Do Before You Call Insurance)," responds to a recurring problem the company encounters across the New Orleans area and surrounding communities, including Metairie, Kenner, Gretna, Slidell, and Mandeville: hail damage that remains invisible from the ground until water intrusion appears on interior ceilings months after a storm. According to the publication, a single spring storm can displace shingle granules, bruise the asphalt mat, and fracture factory-applied seal strips without leaving any mark visible from the street.

Atiyeh Bros. Portland Rug & Carpet Cleaning Highlights Professional Upholstery Care as Homeowners Refresh Furniture

August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Atiyeh Bros. Portland Rug & Carpet Cleaning is drawing attention to professional upholstery maintenance as more homeowners seek to refresh their living spaces and prolong the lifespan of furniture investments. With interior surfaces accumulating dust, allergens, and everyday wear, the company reports growing interest in specialized cleaning that restores fabric appearance and helps furniture last longer.
Upholstered furniture often represents a significant household expense, yet many pieces receive little attention beyond routine surface dusting. Over time, embedded soil, body oils, and airborne particles settle into fibers, contributing to premature aging and dulled color. Professional treatment addresses these concerns by removing deep-seated debris that ordinary household methods frequently leave behind.

The emphasis on furniture care reflects a broader shift among households toward maintaining existing possessions rather than replacing them. Regular attention to sofas, chairs, and other soft furnishings can extend usable life by several years, offering a practical alternative to costly replacement. The Atiyeh Bros. Portland Rug & Carpet Cleaning upholstery cleaning service focuses on this preventive approach, treating fabrics according to their specific fiber content and construction.
Different materials require different handling, and improper cleaning can cause shrinkage, color transfer, or fiber damage. Trained technicians evaluate each piece before applying appropriate methods, an approach intended to protect delicate textiles while achieving thorough results. This attention to fabric type distinguishes professional work from generic do-it-yourself efforts that may risk permanent harm.
"Furniture is one of the more meaningful investments people make in a home, and it deserves the same care given to floors and rugs," said a representative of Atiyeh Bros. "When fabric is cleaned correctly and on a regular schedule, families notice a real difference in how their furnishings look and how long they hold up. The goal is to help people get the most out of what they already own."
Seasonal transitions often prompt households to reassess indoor environments, and cleaner upholstery contributes to a fresher overall atmosphere. Removing accumulated allergens can benefit those sensitive to dust and other common irritants, an added consideration for families spending increased time indoors during colder months.
"Fabrics collect far more than most people realize between cleanings," the representative added. "A professional process reaches the material that settles deep in the weave, and that thorough removal is what supports both appearance and the long-term condition of the piece."
The company applies methods suited to a wide range of furnishings, from everyday seating to more delicate and specialty items. Each project begins with an assessment of fabric and soil conditions, allowing technicians to select techniques calibrated to the material at hand.


Atiyeh Bros. Portland Rug & Carpet Cleaning has served the Portland area with rug, carpet, and upholstery care rooted in generations of textile expertise. The company draws on a long history in the rug trade, combining traditional knowledge with current cleaning practices to serve residential and commercial clients throughout the region. Its work spans area rugs, wall-to-wall carpet, and upholstered furnishings, with an emphasis on preserving textiles and extending their useful life.

Winkler Real Estate Group Introduces Neighborhood Profile Program for Berkeley Homebuyers

Lafayette, California - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Winkler Real Estate Group has launched a new neighborhood profile program designed to help prospective homeowners better understand the communities of Berkeley, California, before making one of the most significant financial decisions of their lives. The initiative provides detailed profiles that outline the culture, amenities, and lifestyle characteristics of individual Berkeley neighborhoods, giving buyers a clearer picture of daily life in each area.
The program addresses a common challenge faced by homebuyers who evaluate properties based primarily on price and square footage, often without sufficient insight into the surrounding community. By compiling comprehensive information on schools, parks, dining, transportation, and local character, the profiles aim to support more informed decisions about where to settle.

Berkeley, known for its distinct districts ranging from the bustling area near the university to quieter residential enclaves in the hills, presents a wide variety of living environments. Each neighborhood carries its own atmosphere, price range, and set of amenities, and the new profiles are intended to help buyers identify which area aligns with their priorities.
"Buying a home is about far more than the property itself," said Shannon Buckley of Winkler Real Estate Group. "People are choosing a way of life, a daily routine, and a set of neighbors. The goal of this program is to give buyers the context they need to picture themselves living in a place, not just owning a structure there."
As part of the initiative, the company also plans to host neighborhood events where prospective buyers can meet current residents and experience the character of an area firsthand. These gatherings are intended to complement the written profiles by offering a more personal perspective that data alone cannot convey.
The emphasis on local knowledge reflects the firm's long-standing focus on the Berkeley market. Familiarity with the region's varied districts allows the team to match clients with neighborhoods that suit their lifestyle, budget, and long-term plans, an approach the company views as central to its work.
"Berkeley is not a single market but a collection of many distinct communities," Buckley added. "Understanding the differences between them is the foundation of everything the team does. This program simply puts that expertise into a form that buyers can explore at their own pace."
The neighborhood profiles cover a range of practical and cultural details, from walkability and public transit access to the presence of farmers markets, cultural venues, and community organizations. The company intends to expand and update the profiles over time as neighborhoods evolve and new information becomes available.

Winkler Real Estate Group serves buyers and sellers throughout the Berkeley, California area, with a focus on connecting clients to communities that fit their needs. The firm combines local market knowledge with a client-centered approach, guiding individuals and families through each stage of the real estate process. Through resources such as the new neighborhood profile program, the company continues to build tools that support informed decision-making within the region it serves.

Maven IT Solutions Publishes EOSL Hardware Maintenance Guidance Reversing Common Scheduling Assumption

SOUTH EASTON, MA - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Maven IT Solutions, Inc. has released new guidance on IT maintenance scheduling that challenges a widely held assumption about aging equipment. The central finding states that maintenance frequency should increase once hardware reaches end of service life rather than decrease, a conclusion that runs counter to how many organizations manage their infrastructure.
The guidance rests on a distinction that is frequently misunderstood. End of service life does not mean equipment stops functioning. It means the manufacturer stops issuing firmware updates, supplying replacement parts, and providing support escalation. Because fewer updates remain available to apply, many teams assume the maintenance burden falls after this milestone. The guidance reports the opposite. As parts availability and vendor support contract, failure risk climbs, which means physical inspection and monitoring should become more frequent even as patching activity naturally drops off.

"The assumption that less patching means less maintenance is backwards," said Brendan Finley, Managing Partner and Founder of Maven IT Solutions. "When a manufacturer stops shipping firmware and parts, the failures do not stop with them. They become harder to resolve, so the case for closer inspection grows stronger at exactly the moment teams tend to ease off."
The EOSL hardware maintenance guide grounds this inversion in a baseline maintenance cadence. That cadence includes daily backup verification and system health checks, weekly patch review and capacity trending, monthly firmware and operating system patching, quarterly disaster recovery testing and hardware inspection, and an annual full infrastructure audit. The guidance describes this schedule as a floor rather than a ceiling, with post-support equipment sitting above it. It notes that the quarterly warranty and end of service life status review against current inventory is where aging equipment gets identified in the first place.
The document also examines why deferral compounds over time. A firmware update postponed a single quarter can leave a cluster several versions behind by the time an issue forces the upgrade, turning what would have been a routine update into multi-step remediation. This chain effect is presented as a primary reason that maintenance discipline matters most as equipment ages.
"Deferral is where the cost hides," Finley said. "A skipped update rarely causes a problem on its own, but it stacks. By the time something breaks, the straightforward fix is gone and the path forward involves several intermediate steps." 
For organizations running equipment past manufacturer support, the guidance addresses third party maintenance as a lifecycle timing consideration, describing how support arrangements factor into decisions about equipment kept in service beyond its supported window. The full EOSL hardware maintenance guide sits alongside the company's other I/T guides covering infrastructure reliability topics.

Sell To Manatee Expands Options for Homeowners Seeking to Sell My House Fast in North Port FL

SARASOTA, FL - August 12, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Sell To Manatee, a Bradenton-based real estate solutions and investment firm, is offering North Port homeowners a faster alternative to traditional home sales as shifting market conditions and changing personal circumstances lead more property owners to explore direct-sale options.
The firm, which buys houses throughout Bradenton, Sarasota, Palmetto, and North Port, addresses a growing segment of homeowners who face time-sensitive situations that conventional listings cannot easily accommodate. These include foreclosure, divorce, the death of a family member, inherited properties, burdensome rental units, and homes in need of significant repair. Rather than requiring sellers to invest in renovations or wait for buyers to secure financing, Sell To Manatee purchases properties in their current condition and closes with cash.

Under the company's process, homeowners receive a cash offer within 24 hours of initial contact, with no obligation or fees attached. Closings can be completed in as little as seven days because purchases do not depend on traditional bank lending. The approach is designed for sellers whose priorities include speed and certainty rather than maximizing exposure on the open market.
Market data across Florida has pointed to longer listing timelines and financing complications for some buyers in recent months, factors that have prompted a portion of homeowners to consider direct sales. Sell To Manatee positions its service as a response to those conditions, particularly for owners who cannot afford the delays and repair costs associated with a conventional transaction.
"Many homeowners come to us because their circumstances do not fit the traditional timeline," said Andrew DeWeerd, spokesperson for Sell To Manatee. "Someone facing foreclosure or managing an inherited property often needs clarity within days, not months. The goal is to give people a straightforward path when SELL TO MANATEE - WE BUY HOUSES BRADENTON SARASOTA in North Port, FL becomes the practical option for their situation."
DeWeerd noted that the firm evaluates each property individually before presenting an offer. "Every home and every seller is different," he said. "Research goes into each offer so that homeowners can weigh a fair figure against their own needs without any pressure to accept."
The company buys properties across a wide range of conditions, from homes that are move-in ready to those that are uninhabitable, fire-damaged, or occupied by difficult tenants. This flexibility allows owners who lack the time or resources for repairs to move forward without additional expense.
Sell To Manatee assists homeowners in a variety of challenging circumstances, including "sell my house fast in North Port, FL", those who are behind on payments, owe liens, or have downsized and been unable to sell a remaining property. The firm reports that its cash-based model removes several of the contingencies that can delay or derail a standard sale.


Sell To Manatee is a real estate solutions and investment firm based in Bradenton, Florida, serving property owners throughout Manatee and Sarasota counties, including Palmetto and North Port. The company specializes in purchasing houses in any condition and providing homeowners with cash offers and expedited closings as an alternative to conventional real estate transactions.
