| RE: 911 Access with Cable TV Phone Service During Power Outages |
|
I just switched to cable phone service yesterday. The installer said there was a battery backup system available for purchase in the event of a power outage.

The House files have everything that is attached to the house (frig, stove, flooring, water heater, etc.) so I'll be able to pass this on to the new owner. I WISH all this paperwork would fit in a binder! ... View related article. |
