WE are a large Healthcare organization in North Carolina. We acquired a 300 unit (apartment) Retirement Community in the alst few years. We need to upgrade and replace all of the "through the wall" units that serve each apartment (square footage varies from 480 sq.ft. to 1400 sq.ft. Magic Pak heat pumps (12000 BTU, 18000 BTU/ 24000 BTU- according to size of area) are being suggested for replacement. I am looking for an opinion on these units- good, bad or indifferent.

The easy answer is between $50 and $60--for the most part. Obviously, a little 36' ranch with no options isn't going to be the same price as a 76' long tri-level with $16,000 worth of options. We build both, though. This question is actually a little misleading, though. A site-built home often costs around $100 per sq. ft., or more--but that includes the foundation, on-site plumbing, and hookups. When you add these things to our homes the sq. ft.

This is by far the most asked question and the most difficult to answer. There are just too many variables. A simple rectangular home without many interior log walls would be considerably less per square foot for a similar size home with interior log walls, additional corners, stairs and handrails, etc. See similar questions...

The foot length should be kept as short as possible. For a firm load (such as a box) it does not need to be as deep, for a softer load (a sack) the foot must fully support the load. See similar questions...

Yes, some of the camps will publish a list of items (clothes, shoes, and equipment) that they would like their students to bring with them. For example, the Playwriting/Screenwriting Camp recommends that each student bring a laptop computer and tape recorder with them. The acting and musical theater camps also suggest their campers bring a small tape recorder. Other camps may also list some requests in their Registration Packet. See similar questions...

Wash the feet every day and allow them to dry properly before putting on shoes and socks. You should use a separate towel to dry your feet. To avoid passing the infection on you should not share these towels with anyone else. Wear socks made of cotton or wool, and change them at least twice a day or when they have become damp.

It is important that new or replacement equipment is not sized by "Rule of Thumb" or by duplicating the existing equipment capacity. The only accurate way to determine the correct capacity of heating and air conditioning equipment for your home is to have a load calculation performed on your home. There is a specific method to do this calculation. This will give the heat gain and heat loss design data for your home. See similar questions...

No. Every project is different with the prices varying according to project type, medium, difficulty of installation, etc. We encourage you to call for pricing information. You can not put a square foot price on art. It is not wall or floor covering. It is for the most part a permanent fixture that expresses not only the personality of the artist but of the owners for which it was designed. We can provide estimates, but only after we have the answers to certain questions. See similar questions...

Pricing houses by the square foot is like pricing cars by the pound. It is not a good measurement of “what you get,” and usually is not a guarantee of anything. Because we are a custom homebuilder and serve a wide geographical region, we do not price our houses by the square foot. Your cost per square foot will vary largely based on three factors: The total square footage (larger homes = lower cost per square foot) and the features you design into your home.

That depends on the size and style of the home as well as the materials and finishes chosen. As an example, did you know that a single-level home generally costs more per square foot to construct than a multi-story house? Also, the cost per square foot decreases as the size of the home increases. As a guide for preliminary budgeting purposes, the typical custom home usually costs somewhere between $120 to $195 per square foot to construct. (back to top) See similar questions...

For the same reason that new cars are not priced by dollars per pound, the most fair answer is: It depends. While the amount of stone required for your project is a significant part of the price, there are other variables. For this reason, we prefer to first understand the variables of your project and then issue a prompt preliminary estimate. We are careful to avoid any appearance of bait and switch marketing that can occur on the low end of our marketplace with square foot pricing. See similar questions...

Yes, we recommend that you use a walker, cane or crutches for about six weeks. You may also benefit from assistive devices to help with lower body dressing, a bath seat, and grab bars in the bathroom. If you have hip replacement surgery, you will also need a high toilet seat for about three months. Our social worker or case manager can arrange for equipment you will need. See similar questions...

The total square footage includes all of the area inside the exterior face of the "heated walls". It does not include garages, porches, bonus rooms, or decks. For this reason, you cannot multiply the listed dimensions of each room, add them together and come up with the total square footage because you are not including hallways, closets, etc. Sorry, but no. In addition to the home plans that you order, you will also need a site plan that shows where the home is going to be located on the lot. See similar questions...

All the materials needed for the polling place, including the tape player, can easily fit into a box that is 15" x 12" x 8", with room to spare. All the materials in the standard package -- preparatory tools and materials for up to five years of elections -- fit into a box that is 18" x 18" x 18".
