Projector Reviews Announces their 2012 Best Home Theater Projector Awards












Projector Reviews 1080p Home Projector Report


San Clemente, CA (PRWEB) April 18, 2012

Each year, Projector Reviews organizes the current 25+ home theater projectors they’ve reviewed, into three price “Classes:” Under $ 2000, $ 2000-$ 3500, and $ 3500 – $ 10,000+ projector models.

The award winners, by class:

Best 2D projector under $ 2000: Panasonic PT-AR100U

Best 2D / 3D capable projector under $ 2000 (Tie): Acer H9500BD projector and the Epson Home Cinema 3010 projector.

Best projector $ 2000-$ 3500 price class: Epson Home Cinema 5010 / Epson Pro Cinema 6010

Best Projector $ 3500-$ 10,000+ (Tie): JVC’s DLA-X70R and Sony’s VPL-VW95ES.

Projector Reviews also determined several Best In Class Runner-Up awards, including Panasonic’s PT-AE7000 and BenQ’s W7000.

Editor Art Feierman had this to say about the crop of projectors considered:

“This past year has been an exceptional one in terms of the number of ‘all new’ projectors, and the number of significantly improved projectors. Of particular note, there are a lot more very bright projectors suitable for family rooms and living rooms. This year, people are getting a whole lot more bang for their buck.”

Art Feierman also commented on the exciting rise of 3D’s presence in the report:

“3D is happening with home theater projectors. Most over $ 2000 new models offer 3D capability. And they can really dazzle.

“We want everyone to know that projector based 3D at home is a whole different world than on a 42” LCDTV, and typically even blows away your average local 3D theater. That is to say, truly awesome. This year, we’re really trying to make our readers aware of how great home 3D is when you are truly immersed by using projector.”

About Projector Reviews:

Based in San Clemente, CA, ProjectorReviews.com provides an in-depth look into the industry’s top home theater projectors. Art Feierman and the rest of the Projector Reviews staff have been reviewing both home and business / education projectors since 2000.

The Projector Reviews website and blogs reach approximately one and a half million unique visitors a year. That’s a lot of folks with projector interest.

“Our amenities are also a big draw for buyers,” adds Hathaway. Residents at Rosedale have access to a private clubhouse and recreation center, including a fully equipped fitness room, Junior Olympic swimming pool, spa, wading pool, outdoor fireplace and more. Residents also have access to more than 100 trails, including the nearby Garcia Trail, located adjacent to Rosedale.

Greenstar Home Services Announces Central Water Filtration Partnership with Environmental Water Systems (EWS, Inc.)

Greenstar Home Services Announces Central Water Filtration Partnership with Environmental Water Systems (EWS, Inc.)












Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) April 06, 2012

Greenstar Home Services, Orange County’s premier eco-friendly and environmentally conscious plumbing, HVAC, and water filtration provider, has announced today that it will be exclusively providing Environmental Water Systems as their water filtration product of choice. Greenstar is the first and only plumbing and HVAC provider in Orange County certified by Environmental Water Systems as experts in installation and service of their high-end filtration appliances.

“EWS is thrilled to be associated with Greenstar,” says Mark Truncale, Vice President of Environmental Water Systems. “Like EWS, Greenstar is dedicated to providing top quality product and exceptional customer service.”

“EWS makes the best filtration products on the market today,” says Jack Yarbrough, Area Sales Manager of Greenstar Home Services. “For us, there was no other choice. EWS is a company with a proven track record of top product performance, quality engineering, and customer satisfaction. Their product line is completely dedicated to water filtration. They are focused on investing and improving their product line, producing a cutting edge appliance for the homeowner.”

Environmental Water Systems has been a proven leader in Whole Home Water Filtration for over 25 years. EWS was chosen as the exclusive water filtration for the 2011 National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) New American Showcase Home, showcased by numerous publications, and is available in over 700 kitchen and bath showrooms in the United States.

With today’s city tap water containing chlorine or chloramine (a toxic chlorine-ammonia compound that is lethal to marine life and corrosive to pipes and appliances), pharmaceutical residues, pesticides, obesogens, and more, we are putting ourselves at risk for developing health issues. Our bodies absorb more chlorine in a 10-minute shower than if we drank a gallon of unfiltered tap water, so we must be aware that we can drink, inhale, and absorb these contaminants.

“The President’s Cancer Panel reports that there are over 80,000 understudied and unregulated contaminants in our tap water, some of which are directly linked to cancer. EWS has never focused on taste or gimmicks or the latest trend. We focus on health. We focus on our products’ ability to remove these contaminants and protect us – not cover it up by making the water simply taste better. Taste does not equate to health or quality. If it did, then French fries and cookies would be health foods,” says Truncale.

“Greenstar is committed to providing our customers with unparalleled service and exceptional value, providing EWS is just an extension of that philosophy. It was important for us to align with a company that is continually improving their products to meet the changing water conditions of the families we serve. Their new chloramine filtration line is like none other on the market, and is just one example of their commitment to cutting edge performance,” says Yarbrough.

Greenstar Home Services offers many options to homeoweners for their everyday lives to protect the environment for a global benefit. We aim to empower our customers with simple and direct information on green alternatives that make a real, lasting difference to their family, to their home, and to the world.”

Gulf Shores-Based Company Offers Storm-Stricken Homeowners Free Online Home Improvement Management Services for Next 60 Days

Gulf Shores-Based Company Offers Storm-Stricken Homeowners Free Online Home Improvement Management Services for Next 60 Days












Gulf Shores, AL (PRWEB) March 14, 2012

In response to the recent weather-related destruction in parts of Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky and Alabama, an Alabama-based company is offering homeowners free assistance with managing and paying for repairs through local, licensed contractors.

Doug McCright CEO of Gulf Shores-based SafePact.com says they are offering their online contractor management and escrow services to local homeowners affected by the storms at no cost for the next 60 days.

According to McCright, SafePact.com provides “peace of mind” to homeowners who have concerns about finding and working with reputable home improvement contractors.

“The time period following natural disasters is critical for homeowners who are desperate to have their lives put back in order,” says Lin Saville, VP of Sales and a partner in SafePact, “and they often fall prey to disreputable out-of-town contractors who descend on the area looking to turn a quick buck.” SafePact.com offers homeowners a secure online portal, through which they can contact local contractors, arrange for and approve estimates, and even pay for services through a secure escrow account. Using a SafePact escrow account ensures that the contractor receives payment only after the terms of the contract have been met to the satisfaction of the homeowner.

“Homeowners like working with contractors who agree that payment should be contingent upon homeowner satisfaction,” says Saville. “SafePact.com helps homeowners weed out contractors who aren’t willing to wait for approval before payment. And, speaking as a professional who has spent most of my career working with contractors, I can tell you that contractors like the idea that the payment for the project is right there, waiting to be released after a job well done. Utilizing SafePact actually motivates reputable contractors to do the job right and on time—which is what victims of a natural disaster want more than anything.”

To find out more, visit http://www.SafePact.com. Information about SafePact services, a project calculator, and links to helpful resources are available free of charge. To contact SafePact directly, call Lin Saville at (205) 705-7982, or call SafePact’s office at (251) 517-3311. Toll Free: (855) 723-3722 . Fax:(855) 723-3721. E-Mail: info(at)safepact(dot)com. Website: http://www.SafePact.com. SafePact.com is located at 191 Northshore Circle, Suite 100, Gulf Shores, Alabama 36542-2822.
