Bothell man convicted of road-rage act
Bothell residents call for mayor’s resignation
BY CARRIE RODRIGUEZ
everal Bothell residents have asked Mark Lamb to resign from his position as Bothell Mayor, claiming his admitted affair has drawn embarrassment to the city and distracted the council from important issues.
A Bothell man was found guilty on Monday of pulling out a gun during a Kirkland road-rage incident in April. A jury found Phillip Warren Baxter, 64, guilty on one count of second-degree assault during his trial in King County Superior Court. His sentencing is set for Dec. 19 and he faces three to ninth months in jail. The victim in the case claimed that Baxter pulled his vehicle in front of her car in Kirkland’s Juanita neighborhood the morning of April 10. She said his car was driving at a speed of 15 mph in a 35-mph zone, according to charging documents. She admitted to following the driver closely as she hoped he would speed up. But the woman claims Baxter slammed on the brakes and forced her into another lane to avoid hitting his car, and she proceeded around his vehicle. When the woman stopped for a red light, Baxter pulled up beside her, the documents continue. The drivers yelled at each other and Baxter displayed a loaded .38 caliber revolver and pointed the gun at the woman, according to the documents. The woman claimed he shook the gun at her like someone would “shake their finger at someone who did something wrong.” A Washington State Patrol trooper later stopped Baxter based on the woman’s report of the license-plate number and recovered the gun in a holster on Baxter’s hip.

Local family sacrifices to get daughter home for Christmas
District 1 seat draws 13 applicants following Ferguson’s election as AG

Most kids dream of getting a Barbie doll, video game or bike for Christmas. Tahlia Boyd’s wish was to spend Christmas at home with her family. The 7-year-old little girl’s family is rushing to prepare for her return from the hospital on Dec. 26 when the family will get to celebrate Christmas one day late - but together. Tahlia is currently being treated for a brain tumor at Seattle Children’s Hospital. But renovating their home and buying a van for her wheelchair is not cheap. “It has definitely been a strain on the family,” said Tahlia’s father Eric Boyd. “Her three siblings definitely miss her a lot.

Bothell grandma falls victim to ‘grandparent scam,’ warns others BY CARRIE RODRIGUEZ crodriguez@bothell-reporter.com
When 77-year-old Carol Mahre heard who she thought was her grandson plea for her help on the telephone, she had one thought - he’s in trouble. “First he said, ‘Hi, grandma,’ just like my oldest grandson says,” Mahre recalled of the Nov. 28 phone call. “I said, ‘Hi, Lewis, how
are you?’ He said, ‘I’ve got a problem and I’m in jail. I’m being held against my will in a jail in Mexico and I need $2,200 to be released.’” The man told Mahre that he was in an accident and a woman from the U.S. Embassy would call and tell Mahre how she could help her grandson with his release. “I was just astounded and thought, oh, he’s been in a car accident,” said Mahre, who

She will be confined to a wheelchair for a year and have to have round-the-clock care. “She is now at Children’s Hospital in Seattle, on a ventilator full time, and she must have assistance to eat and move,” said Button. Eric and Rachelle along with Rachelle’s parents, who live with them and are helping out, have to take classes to be able to care for Tahlia with her tracheotomy. “We have to finish the training so she can be discharged and come home,” said Eric. The past eight months have been difficult for the entire family, including Tahlia’s brothers Silas, 2, Malachi, 5, and sister Hailey, 10. “Her and Hailey are pretty much best friends,” said Eric. “It has been the roughest on the two girls.” The Boyds have also had help from Eric’s parents, who live in Portland, as they took the kids for a month earlier this year. All four kids are homeschooled.

Eleven critical home inspection traps you should know about before you put your Bothell/Kenmore home up for sale Bothell/Kenmore According to industry experts, there are over 33 physical problems that will come under scrutiny during a home inspection when your home is for sale. A new report has been prepared which identifies the eleven most common of these problems, and what you should know about them before you list your home for sale. Whether you own an old home or a brand new one, there are a number of things that can fall short of requirements during a home inspection. If not identified and dealt with, any of these 11 items could cost you dearly in terms of repair. That’s why it’s critical that you read this report before you list your home. if you wait until the building inspector flags these issues for you, you will almost certainly experience costly delays in the close of your home sale
or, worse, turn prospective buyers away altogether. In most cases, you can make a reasonable preinspection yourself if you know what you’re looking for, and knowing what you’re looking for can help you prevent little problems from growing into costly and unmanageable ones. To help homesellers deal with this issue before their home is listed, a free report entitled “11 Things You Need to Know to Pass Your Home Inspection” has been compiled which explains the issues involved. To hear a brief recorded message about how to order your FREE copy of this report, call 1-800-2691403 and enter ID# 2545. You can call any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

A load limit has been put into effect to prohibit vehicles weighing over 15 tons gross vehicle weight from using the 102nd Avenue N.E. bridge in Bothell after it was damaged by a tractor trailer. All emergency vehicles, regardless of weight, will be allowed continued use of the bridge. The driver of a tractor trailer was hauling a track hoe on the morning of Dec. 3 when the driver left the boom up and it hit the bridge. The impact caused significant damage to the bridge, estimated to be between $150,000 and $175,000. City crews have since performed emergency inspections on the bridge and determined that, although the bridge is safe for smaller vehicles to drive on, continued use by over‐ sized vehicles could further compromise the structural damage. The City will soon be distributing and posting a detour map for vehicles weighing more than the 15
ton load limit. This weight limit will continue until further notice. The bridge had the same 15 ton weight restriction

“It has definitely been a strain on the family. Her three siblings definitely miss her a lot. We are doing okay. We have our good days and our bad days.” — Bothell resident Eric Boyd on how his family is dealing with his daughter’s brain tumor
Keep track of Santa’s progress with the Reporter
I
was overjoyed when the staff of the Bothell/ Kenmore Reporter contacted me with the idea of tracking my progress Christmas Eve. Being in my position it is difficult to let people know where I am going. It is extremely important and air traffic controllers are the only ones who can see my sleigh. Plus, Twitter is so impersonal. It is very important to get this information to families so that kids are asleep when I get to their house. It is not a very well known fact, but I am not able to use the ‘spirit’ of Christmas to get down chimneys without kids being asleep first. Letting you know when I will arrive is very important. Most kids understand that they must be in bed and asleep in order for me to drop off the goodies and see their beautiful tree. I do get a few inquisitive tykes who try to stay up and hear my sleigh bells but it just delays the inevitable. Since most kids have access to a computer now, web sites are normally the best way to keep in touch. I am not always the best for Facebook or even keeping up with my email, but the elves are able to keep things moving on the internet. I will call in to Reporter staff at 2, 4, 6 and 8 p.m. and they will let you know how my trip is going at www. bothell-reporter.com.The final post will not tell you exactly when I will arrive at your house because there are an awful lot of houses in Washington state. It will give you a sense of how the trip is going and prepare you for a nice rest. Oh, I always enjoy visiting Bothell and Kenmore as it is one of my favorite places to visit, even when I am not “working.” My “business” is more of a labor of love than a job. But the misses and I will enjoy Tahiti on Jan. 3. We were told that the weather for the trip to Bothell and Kenmore on Christmas Eve won’t be
as good as some of the more northern areas of the world. Landing in the snow is always easier for my reindeer and sleigh. Having snow on Christmas is always nice but the holiday is not about snow or presents, it is about being with your family. But presents are always nice. The elves have done an outstanding job this year of gathering all the letters, making toys and being in contact with toy companies from around the world. I still enjoy a good wooden train but I can understand the lure of the Skylanders, a Barbie Doll or an iPad. I just love toy testing. My wife and I really enjoyed our trip to Bothell and Kenmore and the stops before Christmas at Country Village. Mrs. Claus and I really appreciated the opportunity to take some pictures with all the children and adults who came out to visit. I have made many visits to your area in the past month. I love being able to talk with all the children prior to my visit on Christmas Eve. It gives me a chance to find out what you Santa Claus

For the most part, children from Bothell and Kenmore have been good this year. There are some on the naughty list, but I am informed that the load of coal is down from last year, which is always a good sign. Homework and chores have been pretty good overall but you must remember to listen to your parents and try to help others. I hope you enjoy the updates of my trip to Bothell and Kenmore and are able to spend a lot of time with family during winter break from school.

Bothell Mayor’s affair has drawn unfavorable attention to city The Dec. 7 Bothell Reporter contained yet another article providing additional information about Mr. Lamb’s adulterous affair with a 23-year-old woman. In recent court filings (Dec. 4), Mr. Lamb admits to having a “consensual sexual relationship” with the woman. So that is not in question. Mr. Lamb’s attorney has tried to argue that his position as Mayor of Bothell is irrelevant to the woman’s complaint. So, what is the connection to his position as mayor? The woman makes two claims that directly relate to his official duties. First,
she claims that shortly after meeting her, Mr. Lamb tried to get her to go with him to Las Vegas where he attended a four-day meeting, at city expense, concerning shopping centers. Second, as reported in your article, she claims in a sworn statement that she “went to Olympia and stayed overnight with Mr. Lamb, who was attending an annual conference of Washington elected officials in his capacity as Bothell’s mayor.” This was likely the meeting of the Association of Washington Cities and his expenses were paid for by the taxpayers. This affair lasted about 22 months, ending in March of this year. It was going on right through the 2011 election. It seems highly unlikely he would have won another
term had this affair been public knowledge during that campaign. All of the news reports and continuing revelations about this extramarital affair have drawn very unfavorable attention to our city. The right thing for Mr. Lamb to do is resign from the council and spend his time healing with his family. If he is unwilling to resign, then the council should replace him as mayor and elect someone else who can devote his energies to leading our city.
Bill Moritz, Bothell
Bothell mayor should step down It certainly looks like Mayor Lamb has finally done it to himself.
After all the shenanigans at city hall that he has escaped blame for he now faces criticism for an illicit affair with a foolish (and apparently very unhappy) 23-year-old woman whom he had sex with in his office. I don’t quite get how that can be termed irrelevant to his job as mayor. It will be interesting to see how he sidesteps this one. Why is it that when a guy gets into a position of power he thinks that issues involving ethics and morality and integrity are for others? What a message for him to send his children. How can he lead our city and remain credible? Mr. Lamb should certainly step down from office. Failing that the city council should remove him from
office. And if that fails a recall would be in order. Sure nothing like local politics to keep interest in the city up. Don’t ya’ll agree?
Steve Collins, Bothell
Embarrassment and shame from sex scandle As the weeks pass and new headlines appear concerning the sex scandal of the City of Bothell Mayor Mark Lamb, the citizens of Bothell feel more embarrassment and shame. It’s one thing to have an admitted adulterous affair in one’s private office, but allegedly in Olympia on the taxpayers’ dime? NO!! As elected officials, the [ more LETTERS page 5 ]

Message from NSD Superintendent on Newtown events This letter was posted on the front of the Northshore School District website on Friday. Dear Northshore Families: It is with great sadness that I inform you that there was a school shooting this morning in Newtown, Connecticut. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Sandy Hook Elementary School students, families and staff due to this horrible tragedy and senseless loss of life. Student safety is a top priority and Northshore School District has worked in conjunction with local emergency responders to develop extensive and thorough school safety plans that address a full-range of emergency situations. These plans are updated annually and our schools regularly practice emergency drills to ensure that we are prepared. An important way you can help support student safety is by following standard school safety protocols when visiting or dropping off or picking up your child.
Sincerely, Larry Francois Northshore School District Superintendent

Several weeks ago arsonists torched the boardwalk leading from Kenmore Elementary to Wallace/Swamp Creek Park. The fire destroyed about 25 feet of the walkway over the wettest, boggiest part of the trail, making it impassable to walkers. The elevated boardwalk was built as an Eagle Scout project by Bill Wilkens about five years
ago. Kenmore Elementary students use the path frequently to visit the park, extend their classroom learning and just enjoy and appreciate the natural beauty of the stream and park. The Kenmore Elementary Eco-Cubs Ecology Club uses the walkway and the park regularly to enhance their study of wetlands, ecosystems and environmental issues. After the fire, Boy Scout Troop 582 responded immediately to the call for help. Wilkens, home for the holidays from college, organized four

A tragedy such as this can be upsetting for students and they could become increasingly nervous, scared or even agitated. Please talk with your child and find out how he/she is feeling. Below are some strategies to assist you in talking with your child about this incident: • Remain calm and reassuring—children model behavior and look to you for cues on how to react. • Turn off or monitor your child’s viewing of the incident on television as this can increase anxiety and stress. • Reassure your child that he/she is safe. • Talk about the tragedy in an age-appropriate manner. • Stick to the facts—answer questions factually. • Listen and be responsive to your child’s concerns. • Help your child express his/her feelings and pay attention to changes in behavior. • Maintain normal routines—children need stability. • Additional resources to support you in talking with your child can be found online on the National Association of School Psychologists website at www.nasponline. org. If you need assistance in helping your child, please contact your child’s school office. It takes parents, students, staff members and community working together to keep our schools safe places to learn and we appreciate your support.

candidate for State Representative, 46th District. “I think there are people running who have good qualifications and I think there are some that don’t,” said Baker. “Given my involvement during the past nine years in the region on different committees I think I would represent Kenmore and the north end very well.” Baker has served on the King County Regional Transportation Committee, the Board of Health and the King County Regional Joint Recommendations Committee for Affordable Housing. Baker is a 17-year resident of Kenmore and was first elected to the Kenmore City
Council in 2004. He ran for State Senate in 2010 against Maralyn Chase as a Republican and lost. The appointee will serve in office until certification of the next general election in November 2013. Baker said that transportation and human services would be his top priorities. “Cities are going through some deep cuts (to human services) and the county is left to make it up,” said Baker. “We have to preserve Metro services because a lot of people rely on them.” Among the Citizen Advisory Committee are Co-Chair Kathe Fowler, a Kirkland resident and vice president of the Washington Environmental Council and Board president-elect of the Kirkland Performance Center, along with Kenmore resident Beretta Gomillion, the executive director of the Center for Human Services.
Baker, among others, was surprised that Ryu applied for the position after winning re-election to the Washington State Legislature. Ryu was first elected to Pos. 1 from the 32nd District in 2010. The Reporter could not reach Ryu for comment. Ryu was the first KoreanAmerican female mayor in the country, elected in Shoreline in 2008. Some of the other applicants include: Tiffany Bond, who is the former Parks and Recreation commissioner for the City of Woodinville; Chris Eggen, a former Shoreline City Council member; Will Hall, a former Shoreline City Council member; Bob Ransom, a former Shoreline City Council member; Keith Scully, the former Planning Commissioner for Shoreline; and Sarajane Siegfriedt, a King County Board of Equalization member and former

Steve Collins said Lamb should step down from office, “failing that the city council should remove him from office. And if that fails, a recall would be in order.” Bill Moritz said Lamb’s mayoral position is relevant to Mae’s civil lawsuit as she claims she attended an overnight council-related trip with Lamb in Olympia. “All of the news reports and continuing revelations about this extramarital affair have drawn very unfavorable attention to our city,” said Moritz. “The right thing for Mr. Lamb to do is

resign from the council and spend his time healing with his family. If he is unwilling to resign, then the council should replace him as mayor and elect someone else who can devote his energies to leading our city.” Lamb and his attorney declined to comment. Stowe said the city will not take any measures to remove Lamb from his position or investigate the issue. “It’s not a matter for the city to be involved in,” said Stowe. He added that expenses for council members’ travel “are approved or audited regularly and I have no reason to believe that any of them are inappropriate, so I see no justification for any further action at this time.”
Partial road closure in Bothell through Jan. 4 The Snohomish County Department of Public Works is advising motorists in the Bothell area that there will be a single lane closure on 180th St. S.E. and Interurban Blvd. through Jan. 4. The closures from 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. will be on 180th St. S.E. just east of Interurban Blvd. and one lane of traffic on W. Interurban Blvd. between 59th Ave. S.E. and 178th St. S.E. The closure is to relocate existing underground cable communications in conjunction with Snohomish County DPW. Emergency vehicles and school district transportation will have access at all times.

the audio recording of the entire Nov. 20 council meeting through a public records request. During the meeting, Julia Walters Burns, who has lived in Bothell for more than 20 years, addressed the council. “I’m here tonight to talk a little bit about the events over the last couple of weeks, the impact I think they’ve had on our town and I ask you to take some action to help accelerate Bothell’s ability to move forward,” said Burns. “So, Mayor Lamb, my condolences to your wife and your family. I’m sure the current situation must be a big embarrassment to you.” She continued that a
public figure has a high level of accountability and responsibility to their constituents. Addressing Lamb directly, Burns said in the last election, he ran on a platform of family values and community service. “In light of this, I ask you to honor those commitments to your family and to your community by asking you tonight to either resign or step aside until this case is resolved to avoid any further embarrassment to your family and the population of our city.” She said if Lamb chooses not to step down, she asked the council to “please take it upon yourselves to use whatever means available to you to ask Mr. Lamb to recuse himself from the

your parent is currently living in. While you do not want to tackle the topic of relocation during the holidays, utilize the time to assess the situation without turning a blind eye. Your careful assessment can lead to planning for your parent’s future and prevent problems later on down the road. So, how do you start your assessment between Christmas and New Year’s Day? The first step is to be honest with yourself and remember that the time spent with your elderly parent is an excellent opportunity to evaluate and reevaluate living arrangements and planning options for the future. • Assess environmental clues Look around and take a careful assessment of the home and living environment, from the point of arrival to the bathroom amenities. No, you are not snooping, but gaining insight on how your loved one lives when you are away. Is the house in desperate need of repair? Are the medications in the bathroom outdated? Is the mail and laundry piling up? Do you see an ant infestation in the pantry? Is there nutritional food, or any food, in the refrigerator? • Make note of physical clues Physical clues can be easy [ more HOLIDAYS page 9 ]

UW Bothell celebrates new recreation complex BY MATT PHELPS

asketball, baseball, soccer, tennis, ultimate Frisbee, volleyball, badminton and softball are just some of the sports that University of Washington Bothell students were excited about, despite standing outside in 40 degree temperatures and a slight drizzle. About 150 students and faculty members came out to see the grand opening of the new 2.5 acre UW Bothell Sports and Recreation Complex on Thursday afternoon. “The only thing I am wondering is where the ice skating rink is to play hockey,” joked UW Bothell Chancellor Kenyon S. Chan. Despite the chilly temperatures, students got a chance to play a bit on the new 100,000-square-foot baseball and soccer field, with synthetic turf, sand volleyball court, basketball courts and tennis courts during the event. The complex is located to the east of Campus Way Northeast and runs alongside the North Creek Trail. “I am excited for this,” said Bothell resident and UW freshman RJ Herana. “It is really nice.” The $3.3 million facility was the brainchild of students. “One of the first clubs I joined on campus was ultimate Frisbee but it was always hard to find a place to play,” said UW alumni Eric Chan, who helped spearhead the project. “Throughout the process

MATT PHELPS, Bothell Reporter I was really impressed with how the students and administration worked together.” The project will be paid for during the next decade through a $30 student activities fee and $400,000 from the university said UW Bothell Student Body President Kevin King. The University also donated the land for the project. “I am so excited about this because I am a soccer player,” said King, who got to throw out the ceremonial first pitch on the softball field. “I am ready to beat everyones’ butts … It really shows that the
opportunities are endless here. A lot of students participated in the creation of this.” The ribbon cutting also included an afternoon of fun, with a potato sack race, home-run derby, 3-point shootout, punt, pass and kick competition and flag football, to name a few. “The rec fields add a tremendous part to student life,” said Kenyon S. Chan. “When you’re a student you need to burn off some energy. Intellect is connected to the physical wellbeing.” The fields also give
students a place to congregate socially for events. “I am really happy about this,” said student Jake Lee, who will enjoy using the tennis courts. “I know a lot of students who have been waiting for this.” The university is also planning to build a 40,000-square-foot activities center that will house a fitness center and changing rooms among other amenities. “I am hoping we will have the most beautiful student activities center in the Northwest,” said Chan.

of three major construction projects to be completed over the next two years on the UW Bothell campus. The $68 million Science and Academic Building is expected to open in late 2014. Also, the 4,500-squarefoot Sarah Simonds Green Conservatory, complete with a greenhouse, education and exhibit space, is scheduled for summer 2013 completion. And as for that ice skating rink, the basketball court will be temporarily transformed into one in February.
Text-to-911 service soon to be available in King County King County Executive Dow Constantine today applauded proposed new federal rules that would require all wireless carriers, as well as telephone text messaging applications, to deliver emergency 9-1-1 text messages in areas where emergency call centers are capable of receiving them. The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) emphasizes that whenever possible, people should make a voice call to 9-1-1 during an emergency. However, text-to-911 will provide a lifesaving alternative in situations where a person with a hearing or speech disability is unable to make a voice call or where an audible 9-1-1 voice call could endanger the caller. The new rules proposed by the FCC follow an announcement by AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and two national 9-1-1 associations that they will begin major deployments of text-to-911 service in 2013, with nationwide availability by May 15, 2014. The FCC is seeking comment from carriers and third-party messaging providers as to whether this timeframe is achievable. If text-to-911 service is not available in an area, the four major phone carriers have agreed to implement automated “bounce back” error messages. This capability will be in place by June 30, 2013.

Luckily, the cons did not completely ruin Mahre’s Christmas. The Bothell police helped her get her $3,900 back from Western Union. However, they were not able to recover her $2,200. “That’s still a lot of social security checks,” she added. Bothell police officer Steve Kerzman, who helped Mahre get some of her money back, said this type of scam is “unfortunately becoming a common trend where elderly people are being targeted.” Some of the issues the Bothell police have seen are cons calling the elderly and saying they are in jail or the hospital and need money. “The other thing we’re seeing is callers who say the person has won the sweepstakes and asking them to wire the tax mon-
ey from the sweepstakes,” said Kerzman. “This is all getting wired to other countries, unfortunately, so this makes it very hard for police enforcement to get it back.” He said the department has seen several people recently fall prey to similar scams at the Green Acres Mobile Home Park retirement community in Bothell. “We have people there who’ve been targeted and who have sent well and above $10,000,” he noted. He said the department is in the process of trying to work with local senior communities to bring awareness about scams that target the elderly. “The elderly tend to be more giving, so there’s not as much hesitation from them,” noted Kerzman. The Bothell Police Department has also discussed ways to alert employees at various Western Union locations about the scam, such as creating an informational brochure. The Washington attorney general made a
How to detect a scam The Washington State Office of the Attorney General offers the following tips to detect a scam: 1. Don’t fill in the blanks for the scammer. For example: Caller: “It’s your granddaughter.” Grandparent: “Which one?” Most likely, the con will then hang up. 2. Do whatever is necessary to confirm the real relative’s whereabouts. Call your grandchild’s home, school or work. 3. Don’t send money unless you have verified that your relative is really in trouble. If a caller asks for your bank account number or urges you to send money via Western Union or MoneyGram for any reason, that’s a good indication of a scam. Cons prefer wire transfers because they are fast, there are transfer agents in most communities and funds can be picked up in multiple locations. multi-state agreement money and provide enwith MoneyGram in 2008 hanced training to branch that aims to prevent U.S. agents.

Energy Savings with Energy
Q/A | with
Q A
How did SUNDANCE Energy get started? Back in 1981 we primarily did solar water heating and pool heating. We did that until 1985 when the federal government stopped offering a tax credit for installing solar energy systems. At that point we had to reinvent ourselves. We wanted to keep the same theme, which was saving people money and offering environmental solutions for the home. What made the most sense to our business was natural gas and it’s sustained our business since. We’ve been around for over 30 years now.
Q A
How does your company promote the use of clean energy? When we burn coal, oil, diesel, wood – all of these things are bad for air quality. They put pollution in the air and cause health problems for our families. Natural gas is a clean burning fuel source. The beauty of burning natural gas is it produces water, heat and carbon dioxide which has no particulate pollution in it. Natural gas fireplaces are the most romantic and clean way to heat your home and provide comfortable heat in a power outage. Heating our homes is an essential
What’s good for the environment is good for your wallet!
need for everyone so we really believe the most environmentally friendly way over the years has been natural gas or high efficiency heat pumps. The new product on the market is ductless heat pumps. They do use electricity but because of its efficiency, they are probably the most environmentally sound way to heat. It also makes a lot of sense financially as it is 3 times more efficient than electric heat and 5 times more efficient than oil or propane heat and half the cost of a high efficiency gas furnace. Homeowners can find substantial savings on their heating. Whenever we do something that’s really good for the environment, it tends to be really good financially as well.
Q A
Why is your business important for the Puget Sound? The largest energy cost is heating. People need reliable, comfortable heat that doesn’t cost them an arm and a leg. On a cold winter, people end up spending too much money and sometimes unfortunately, they start being uncomfortable in their homes. We want to make sure that people can afford to be comfortable and not too cold.
Q
How does the US compare to other countries in ductless heat pump installation? In 2009, Japan installed 7 million ductless heat pumps, China installed 16 million units, and Europe installed 7 million units. Comparably, the U.S. only had 300,000 new installations. We have traditionally used horribly inefficient heating systems. Puget Sound Energy, Seattle City Lights and Snohomish County PUD offer their largest rebates as they recognized ductless heat pumps
A
are the best way to heat and cool your home. They are easy to install and make your home the perfect climate.
Q A
Can you tell us about some of the awards and recognition that SUNDANCE Energy has received? We are one of only a few companies that have been awarded the Puget Sound Energy’s Platinum Performance Award for Customer Service. We’ve gotten Angie’s List super Service Award for the last five years and have gotten Best of Northshore with the Bothell/Kenmore Reporter every year they held the contest. We’re one of the only Mitsubishi Top Diamond Dealers, which allows us to give people a better warranty on their products. In addition, we’re one of the original Rheem Top Contractors in the state and we’ve been featured on New Day Northwest on King 5 three times.
Q A
What are the costs for your services?
We’re very competitive. When you consider value, which is the quality of the product and service, we feel we are unmatched. In fact we’re so confident, we will match the price of any product we supply. Most of our products pay for themselves with the energy they save and start putting money into our customer’s pockets.
Q A
What areas do you serve?
We serve Snohomish and King Counties from our Bothell location and we also serve Skagit County from our Mount Vernon location.
