Fun Fact:  “To talk turkey,” means to speak candidly, directly, plainly and/or bluntly. There are several possible explanations to the origin of this phrase.  Some support a link to uncensored familial conversation around the Thanksgiving dinner table; Others say the phrase is linked to the actual sounds a turkey makes, because the male turkey’s “gobble, gobble” is a basic, unadorned, matter-of-fact kind of vocalization.

Imagine how relaxing it would be to soak away the day’s stresses or invite friends over for a fun party featuring your own hot tub. Having a hot tub or sauna in your backyard or patio area is a dream of many. These provide a lot of fun as well as stress relief and are more affordable than you may think. However, the idea of installing a hot tub is something you may not be ready to tackle yourself. Even if you are looking to save money, you may find that calling a Burbank electrical service, such as The Electric Connection, is actually the best option. Consider the following before you think about installing a hot tub yourself.

Safety

Even if you are a skilled at home improvement projects, installing a hot tub can be a dangerous activity. This is because installing a hot tub combines water and electricity. You do not want to take the risk of injury to yourself or others by making a mistake in the installation. A licensed electrician in Burbank has the background to make certain he or she is not injured and the electrician should have insurance in case there is an issue.

Equipment Care

In addition to your personal safety, you should also keep in mind properly caring for the equipment during the installation process. In many cases, you will void the warranty on a hot tub or sauna if you do not install it properly. So for this reason, search the internet for electrician Burbank and allow a professional to take care of this job for you.

If you are considering the installation of a hot tub, sauna or backyard water feature, find a Burbank electrician by visiting The Electric Connection’s website at ElectricConnection.com  or calling us and talking to a customer service specialist today.

In other news, scientists at Syracuse University may have created a new light source that doesn’t need electricity or batteries to produce light. How? The firefly. The scientists found a new way to harness this bioluminescence using nanoscience. Mathew Maye, assistant professor of chemistry at SU explained:

“The nanorods are made of the same materials used in computer chips, solar panels and LED lights. It’s conceivable that someday firefly-coated nanorods could be inserted into LED-type lights that you don’t have to plug in.”
