Winterize Your Home & Save

Monday, January 31st, 2011

Winter weather is here, but following these few simple steps can help you stay cozy indoors and save money on heating costs too: 

  • Make sure your heating system is checked annually by a professional. Also have your flue checked for any buildup and cleaned to lessen the risk of fire.  
  • To conserve energy, make sure your home is properly insulated – particularly walls and attics. 
  • To keep warm air in, caulk and weather strip doors and windowsills. 
  • Install storm windows or cover windows with plastic from the inside to provide an additional layer of weather protection. 
  • To avoid pipes from freezing, wrap them in insulation or layers of old newspapers; then cover with plastic to keep moisture out.  

If you have any questions or would like information on Business, Personal or Life & Health insurance, contact First Savings Insurance at the Perkasie, Quakertown, or New Britain offices. 215-257-5035.

Friday, March 26th, 2010

To better serve our customers, the Perkasie office of First Savings Insurance, Inc. has moved to a new location at 219 South Ninth Street, Perkasie.  If that address sounds familiar, it may be because that is also the location of First Savings Banking-Insurance-Investments Administrative Offices and Loan Center. 

“The relocatioin gives us some much needed room to expand which, in turn, will provide for an overall improvement to the service we provide to our customers,” noted Neil Schwan, President of First Savings Insurance.  “We simply had outgrown our previous Perkasie facility which we had occupied since 1977 and relocating to the First Savings’ Administration Office location is a perfect fit.” 

The local phone number, to reach First Savings Ins. is 215-257-5035 and the website address will remain, www.FirstSavingsOnline.com.

On  Wed., May 12 from 3 to 5:30p.m. friends and customers of First Savings Ins. are invited to an Open House at our new location!

What the Insurance Industry Means to the Economy

Friday, January 22nd, 2010

Insurance Companies…

  • Directly employ nearly 500,000 people contributing $34 billion of payroll.
  • In 2007, paid over $250 billion dollars in insurance claims.
  • Contribute over $15 billion in state premium taxes alone, in addition to the billions more paid in property, payroll, income, etc.

Consider what it would be like if there was no insurance. Not only would hundreds of billions of dollars never enter our economy, but commerce would grind to a halt. Banks would not be interested in loaning money for new homes, autos, or construction projects.

In absence of insurance, many people would lose their jobs, and even if they stayed employed they would have no health or life insurance, and heaven forbid an employee would get hurt on the job. We would all drive at our own risk and air travel would be out of the question.

If you would like more information on insurance services or simply have a question, contact First Savings Insurance at 215-257-5035 or visit us at www.FirstSavingsOnline.com
