    ARC Restoration Addresses Rising Indoor Air Quality Concerns from Water Damage in Denver Properties

    DENVER, CO – November 14, 2025 – PRESSADVANTAGE –

    ARC Restoration, a Denver-based disaster cleanup and restoration company, highlights the growing concern over indoor air quality issues that develop following water damage incidents in residential and commercial properties. The company emphasizes that water damage extends beyond visible structural problems, potentially creating serious air quality hazards that require professional remediation.

    Water damage incidents in Denver properties often lead to elevated humidity levels and hidden moisture pockets that create ideal conditions for mold growth and airborne contaminants. These conditions can develop within 24 to 48 hours of initial water exposure, making rapid response essential for maintaining healthy indoor environments. ARC Restoration Water Damage Restoration Denver services address these concerns through comprehensive moisture detection, extraction, and air quality management protocols.

    ARC Restoration Water Damage Restoration

    “Indoor air quality deterioration following water damage represents one of the most overlooked aspects of property restoration,” said Chris Barnett, Operations Director at ARC Restoration. “Property owners often focus on visible water removal without realizing that lingering moisture and contaminated air can pose significant health risks to occupants long after the initial incident.”

    The restoration process involves multiple stages designed to address both immediate water removal and long-term air quality protection. Advanced moisture detection equipment identifies hidden water pockets behind walls, under flooring, and in ceiling cavities where traditional visual inspection might miss critical problem areas. Industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers then work to extract moisture from both the air and building materials, reducing humidity levels to prevent secondary damage.

    Beyond moisture control, the company implements specialized air filtration systems during the restoration process. These systems capture airborne particles, spores, and other contaminants that water damage incidents often release into indoor environments. The approach proves particularly important in cases involving sewage backups or flooding from contaminated water sources, where bacterial and viral contaminants present additional health concerns.

    ARC Restoration Water Damage Restoration in Denver also includes comprehensive sanitization protocols as part of their standard service offerings. EPA-registered antimicrobial treatments target areas affected by water damage to prevent microbial growth and eliminate odor-causing bacteria. This multi-faceted approach ensures that restored properties meet safety standards for indoor air quality.

    The company serves numerous communities throughout the Denver metropolitan area, including Aurora, Lakewood, Littleton, Westminster, and Highlands Ranch. Their 24/7 emergency response capability allows property owners to address water damage incidents immediately, minimizing the window for air quality degradation and secondary damage development.

    ARC Restoration provides comprehensive disaster cleanup and restoration services for both residential and commercial properties throughout Colorado. Their service portfolio includes water mitigation, flooded basement restoration, sewer backup cleanup, mold removal, smoke damage restoration, fire restoration, and biohazard cleanup. The company maintains a commitment to restoring properties to their pre-loss condition while prioritizing occupant health and safety through advanced restoration techniques and equipment.

  • Roto-Rooter Warning: “Brown Friday” Calls Spike 50% – Avoid Plumbing Disaster

    Roto-Rooter Warning: “Brown Friday” Calls Spike 50% – Avoid Plumbing Disaster

    Roto-Rooter Warns Homeowners: Brown Friday Calls Spike 50% – Here’s How to Avoid It

    Cincinnati, United States – November 16, 2025 / Roto-Rooter /

    CINCINNATI, OH  –  With Thanksgiving  on the way, Roto-Rooter is bracing for its busiest  time of the year. Incoming service calls will surge 50 percent above average this Black Friday. The industry-wide day-after Thanksgiving rush is called “Brown Friday” by plumbers because it  overwhelms American drains nationwide.

    But here’s what homeowners need to know: waiting until after disaster strikes is a mistake.

    “Turkey grease, starchy side dishes, and holiday guests all converge to create perfect storm conditions for backups and clogs,” said Paul Abrams, spokesman for Roto-Rooter. “What many homeowners don’t realize is that their drains are already partially compromised. The holiday rush is just the trigger. The smart move is preventative service before guests arrive – not emergency calls when sewage backs up into your home.”

    The Brown Friday Reality

    During the four-day Thanksgiving weekend, Roto-Rooter averages a 21 percent surge in service requests. The most common culprits:

    • Turkey drippings and cooking grease that solidify inside pipes like candle wax

    • Rice, pasta, and starchy foods that break down into a clogging gel

    • Overtaxed systems from multiple showers, toilet flushes, and laundry loads with holiday guests

    • Tree root intrusion in main sewer lines – a silent problem that erupts when drain volume increases

    A holiday sewage backup isn’t just inconvenient. It can spoil a precious family holiday and ruin your celebration.

    Roto-Rooter’s Brown Friday Initiative: Open 24/7, and that includes Thanksgiving.

    Roto-Rooter’s 7,000 service technicians nationwide are working and  and on-call through the entire holiday weekend, including Thanksgiving Day itself, to handle emergency calls. But the company’s strategy is as proactive, as it is  reactive.

    “Schedule preventative sewer or drain cleaning now instead of  emergency calls later,” Abrams recommends. Customers can book services through November at rotorooter.com or by calling 1-800-GET-ROTO. Many branches are offering pre-Thanksgiving maintenance packages to help homeowners avoid the rush and potential disasters.

    For those facing emergency situations during the holiday, Roto-Rooter guarantees a rapid response and no surprise service fees.

    Giving Back This Thanksgiving

    As part of its commitment to communities nationwide, Roto-Rooter is celebrating its seventh annual Giving Thanks Food Drive throughout November. Customers can save $55 with the donation of a non-perishable item to our Giving Thanks Food Drive through participating Roto-Rooter branch offices or at rotorooter.com/fooddrive.

    Schedule Your Pre-Holiday Service Now

    Don’t let Thanksgiving turn into a “Brown Friday” disaster. Homeowners can:

    • Schedule preventative drain cleaning at rotorooter.com or 1-800-GET-ROTO

    • Get emergency plumbing services available Thanksgiving Day and throughout the weekend

    • Learn clog-prevention tips at rotorooter.com/blog

    With 24-hour availability and service in most major U.S. markets, Roto-Rooter keeps homes running smoothly – before, during, and after the holidays.

  • DelivHer Launches Anu™ by DelivHer: The First Disposable, Fluid-Retentive Menstrual Disc Designed Specifically for Heavy, Clot-Rich Flow

    DelivHer Launches Anu™ by DelivHer: The First Disposable, Fluid-Retentive Menstrual Disc Designed Specifically for Heavy, Clot-Rich Flow

    Atlanta, GA November 17, 2025 –(PR.com)– In a category long defined by “normal” flow assumptions, DelivHer is disrupting the narrative with the launch of Anu™ by DelivHer, the first disposable menstrual disc designed to retain both fluid and clots – without leaking, even under pelvic pressure. Now live on Kickstarter, Anu™ marks a significant leap forward in femtech innovation, responding to a need that has gone unmet for generations.

    With three issued patents and a design informed by both clinical insight and lived experience, Anu™ by DelivHer is engineered specifically for individuals managing heavy menstrual bleeding and large clots – users who often find themselves unsupported by mainstream pads, tampons, cups, and discs. Traditional products simply weren’t made for them.

    “In developing Anu™, we set out to address the glaring absence of options for those whose cycles don’t fit the industry’s default mold,” said Chante, Founder & CEO of DelivHer. “Too many have been left to suffer in silence, layering products and living in fear of public leaks. This isn’t just about another period product – it’s about dignity, freedom, and restoring trust in period protection.”

    A Femtech Solution Born from Frustration – and Backed by Science
    Heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB) affects an estimated 1 in 5 women, yet the feminine hygiene aisle remains dominated by solutions that cater to “average” flow. For those navigating flooding, clotting, or product failure during everyday movements like laughing, coughing or sneezing, conventional options often fall dangerously short.

    Anu™ by DelivHer is the first disc-style product that offers fluid-retentive protection, thanks to its proprietary Leak-Lock™ technology. It traps and contains both fluid and clots – even when pelvic pressure would normally trigger leaks or self-emptying in traditional devices.

    This is not another reiteration. It’s customer centric evolution.

    What Sets Anu™ Apart:
    – Leak-Lock™ Core: A triple-layer retention system that secures fluid and clots with zero leaking, zero self-emptying, zero auto-dumping.
    – Mess-Free Removal: Designed for high-flow users, with features that makes removal clean, quick, and discreet.
    – Medical-Grade Construction: Manufactured with biocompatible materials, internally tested for performance and safety.
    – Pressure-Resistant Engineering: Holds up to coughing, laughing, sneezing, and active movement – without compromising security.

    This product aims to meet the period protection needs of heavy menstrual bleeders with the heaviest cycles, including those navigating perimenopause and those who suffer from fibroids, endometriosis, or other HMB-associated conditions while addressing a broader wellness goal: living life without interruption.

    Crowdfunding the Future of Period Care

    The Kickstarter campaign gives early adopters an opportunity to co-create the future of high-capacity period protection. Backers will receive early access, exclusive pricing, and a direct role in shaping product evolution through community feedback.

    Funding from the campaign will scale production and help bring Anu™ to a broader audience – especially those in urgent need of better options.

    “Heavy flow is real. Clots are real. And period paranoia ends here,” added Chante. “We invite our community and the femtech ecosystem to help us challenge outdated norms, elevate expectations, and rewrite the standards of period protection.”

  • GA-ASI and Saab Will Demonstrate AEW&C on MQ-9B in 2026

    GA-ASI and Saab Will Demonstrate AEW&C on MQ-9B in 2026

    Two Aerospace Leaders Are Bringing Airborne Early Warning and Control to UAS

    DUBAI, UAE / ACCESS Newswire / November 16, 2025 / Following their announcement to bring Airborne Early Warning and Control (AEW&C) capability to the world’s leading Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) platform, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) and Saab will now team up to demonstrate the capability in the summer of 2026. The demo will be conducted at GA-ASI’s Desert Horizon flight operations facility in Southern California using a GA-ASI MQ-9B equipped with AEW&C supplied by Saab.

    In partnership with Saab, a leading company in AEW&C systems, GA-ASI is pairing Saab’s AEW sensors with the world’s longest-range, highest-endurance RPA, the MQ-9B. At sea or over land, adding AEW capabilities on MQ-9B enables persistent air surveillance and enables AEW in areas of the world where it doesn’t currently exist or is unaffordable, such as for navy aircraft carriers at sea.

    “Adding AEW&C to the MQ-9B brings a critical new capability to our platform,” said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. “We want to deliver a persistent AEW&C solution to our global operators that will protect them against sophisticated cruise missiles as well as simple but dangerous drone swarms.”

    MQ-9B models include the SkyGuardian® and SeaGuardian®, the United Kingdom’s MQ-9B variant known as Protector, and the new MQ-9B STOL (Short Takeoff and Landing) configuration currently in development.

    The AEW solution for MQ-9B will offer critical aloft sensing to defend against tactical air munitions, guided missiles, drones, fighter and bomber aircraft, and other threats. Operational availability for a medium-altitude, long-endurance UAS is the highest of any military aircraft, and as an unmanned platform, its aircrews are not put into harm’s way.

    GA-ASI and Saab’s AEW offering will span a wide range of applications, including early detection and warning; long-range detection and tracking; and simultaneous target tracking and flexible combat system integration – all over line-of-sight and SATCOM connectivity.

    About GA-ASI

    General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world’s foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Logging more than 9 million flight hours, the Predator® line of UAS has flown for over 30 years and includes MQ-9A Reaper®, MQ-1C Gray Eagle®, MQ-20 Avenger®, and MQ-9B SkyGuardian®/SeaGuardian®. The company is dedicated to providing long-endurance, multi-mission solutions that deliver persistent situational awareness and rapid strike.

  • The First Boutique Surrogacy Agency Redefining Fertility

    The First Boutique Surrogacy Agency Redefining Fertility

    IMA ART Fertility Defines a New Standard of Discretion, Governance, and Emotional Intelligence in Luxury Surrogacy

    BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / November 15, 2025 / Before 2022, “boutique surrogacy agency” was not part of the fertility lexicon. The field focused on logistics and outcomes, not refined experience or emotional intelligence. That changed when IMA ART Fertility relocated from Asia to Beverly Hills, founding a model that merges white-glove service, privacy, and institutional rigor for the nation’s most discerning families.

    Colorful flowers in bloom: red, pink, yellow roses with lush green leaves. Text: “Boutique Surrogacy”, giving a vibrant, floral vibe.

    At IMA ART Fertility, boutique means more than size. It represents a meticulously curated, deeply personal, and ethically structured approach to surrogacy. Families benefit from complete confidentiality, concierge-level coordination, and a proprietary governance framework drawn from the precision of private banking.

    From Boutique to Luxury Fertility Maison™

    To elevate the concept further, IMA ART Fertility created the Luxury Fertility Maison™ – an evolution that embodies exclusivity, craftsmanship, and legacy thinking. Each client journey is bespoke, guided by a philosophy that balances foresight, empathy, and accountability.

    “Luxury in fertility isn’t about excess; it’s about elevated care,” said Michelle Tang, CEO and Co-Founder of IMA ART Fertility. “Our clients entrust us with one of life’s greatest milestones. We respond with structure, transparency, and emotional intelligence – the hallmarks of true luxury.”

    Fertility Governance™ – Where Compliance Meets Compassion

    With more than 15 years of experience in global compliance and governance, Tang introduced Fertility Governance™, a framework ensuring integrity and accountability in surrogacy. This system defines how IMA ART Fertility evaluates partners, designs bespoke programs, and protects every client’s personal, medical, and legal interests.

    Fertility Governance™ establishes transparency and due diligence across every partnership, ensuring verified surrogate screening, data privacy aligned with U.S. and international standards, and separation between medical and concierge decision-making. It replaces assumptions with structure and trust.

    Redefining Accountability in Luxury Fertility

    IMA ART Fertility’s model demonstrates that luxury is accountability – not opulence. Each experience is designed to deliver clarity, confidence, and ethical precision. Families remain in control of their choices, supported by a governance system that safeguards both privacy and peace of mind.

    A Beverly Hills Ethos of Excellence

    Based in Beverly Hills, IMA ART Fertility collaborates with leading reproductive specialists, attorneys, and surrogates across the United States. The Maison’s mission is to elevate the surrogacy experience through structure, transparency, and compassion. Rooted in the precision of Swiss-inspired governance and the warmth of California care, IMA ART Fertility defines what boutique surrogacy truly means – a discipline grounded in integrity, discretion, and savoir faire.

  • GA-ASI Completes Full-Scale Fatigue Test on MQ-9B

    GA-ASI Completes Full-Scale Fatigue Test on MQ-9B

    MQ-9B’s Third Lifetime Test Completes the FSF Testing Process With a Total of 120,000 Hours

    DUBAI, UAE / ACCESS Newswire / November 16, 2025 / On October 31, 2025, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. (GA-ASI) completed its “third lifetime” of full-scale fatigue (FSF) testing for the MQ-9B Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA). Completion of FSF testing for the third and final lifetime includes a total of 120,000 operating hours (40,000+ flight hours per aircraft life) for the RPA and is a key milestone in validating the design of the airframe. The testing verifies the airframe structural integrity in support of certification to the NATO STANAG 4671 standard.

    The aim of the testing is to identify any potential structural deficiencies ahead of fleet usage and assist in developing inspection and maintenance schedules for the airframe. Test results will be used as documentation for certification and will form the basis for in-service inspections of structural components.

    “The completion of our full-scale fatigue test validates years of GA-ASI design and analysis efforts,” said GA-ASI President David R. Alexander. “The first two lifetimes simulated the operation of the aircraft under normal conditions, and the third intentionally inflicted damage to the airframe’s critical components to demonstrate its ability to tolerate operational damage that could occur over the lifetime of the aircraft.”

    Testing was conducted from December 13, 2022, through October 31, 2025, at Wichita State University’s National Institute for Aviation Research in Wichita, Kansas. The airframe tested was a production airframe purpose-built to support the test campaign.

    MQ-9B is GA-ASI’s most advanced RPA and includes the SkyGuardian® and SeaGuardian® models as well as the new Protector RG Mk1 that is currently being delivered to the United Kingdom’s Royal Air Force (RAF). In addition to the RAF, GA-ASI has MQ-9B procurement contracts with Belgium, Canada, Japan, Taiwan, Poland, India, Denmark, and the U.S. Air Force in support of the Special Operations Command. MQ-9B has also been featured in various U.S. Navy exercises, including Northern Edge, Integrated Battle Problem, RIMPAC, and Group Sail.

    General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc., is the world’s foremost builder of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS).
