I think $700 to have 2 installed is a great deal, but I think $700 for an outlet is outrageous.

We have studied this and most of the energy loss comes from the floor vents, the windows and doors and even the outlet covers.

paint touchup around home, cosmetic stuff with brick flower bed, taking down a roap swing, removal of a deck in back that is basically a warehouse pallet, possibly some lawn care, etc.

Eventually they realized that although highly practical, it was also highly confusing (and boring) to have both a 1st St. and a 1st Ave, a 2nd St. and a 2nd Ave, etc, that all intersect each other, so they switched all the avenues to nature-related names (mostly trees, birds and flowers but also some scientists and wealthy people's names peppered in like Carnegie, Curie and Tesla).

You send flowers to the next of kin and call it a day.

@Ani Kap a note on the electrical: if the circuits are ungrounded you should actually leave those 2 prong outlets in place (unless you’re planning to run a ground wire to the outlets or swap the breakers those outlets are on to GFCI breakers).

You're going to have to mess with cords anyway if you want cameras that plug into power outlets and have features like motion-detecting spotlights, which have clearly been a very effective crime deterrent for us.

I tested the outlet and it was around 119 to 120.

Then I would trim the bushes, clean up the beds, add mulch and some flowers for color.
