From recycling over 360 tons of material to saving water, energy, and trees, Bekins’ 2025 sustainability efforts made a measurable impact.

<p>At Bekins, sustainability isn&rsquo;t a buzzword&mdash;it&rsquo;s a commitment we&rsquo;ve honored for over a decade. As we look back on 2025, we&rsquo;re proud to share how our recycling and donation efforts are making a real difference for our community and the planet.</p>
<p><img alt="Pallets of recycled materials loaded in a warehouse." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-recycling/QBEK1_bekins-recycling_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Our 2025 Recycling Impact&mdash;By the Numbers</h2>
<p>In 2025 alone, Bekins recycled an incredible <strong>725,093 pounds (more than 360 tons)</strong> of materials, keeping the equivalent of <strong>65 fully loaded garbage trucks</strong> out of landfills.</p>
<p>Here&rsquo;s how that breaks down:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>112,265 pounds of cardboard</strong>: Enough to fill more than 42 school buses</li>
<li><strong>31,795 pounds of styrofoam</strong>: Enough to fill the average home more than three times</li>
<li><strong>573,780 pounds of appliances</strong>: Weighing more than a train locomotive</li>
<li><strong>945 pounds of paper</strong>: Saving approximately 16 trees</li>
</ul>
<p><iframe class="dsg-block-1-youtube-video" title=“Small Actions, Big Impact: 100% of our Styrofoam is Recycled In-House” src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MHND4VUPdQQ" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<h2>A Decade of Sustainability Leadership</h2>
<p>Since 2015, Bekins has focused on recycling or repurposing more than <strong>90% of all waste</strong> generated at our facilities.</p>
<p>Over that time, we&rsquo;ve diverted <strong>4,376,667 pounds of material</strong> from landfills, including:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>3,411,183 pounds of sheet metal</strong></li>
<li><strong>903,857 pounds of paper and cardboard</strong></li>
<li><strong>54,554 pounds of plastics, electronics, copper wire, foam, styrofoam, and pallets</strong></li>
</ul>
<p>Behind these results is a real investment of time, money, organization, and dedicated warehouse space. At Bekins, recycling at this scale doesn&rsquo;t just happen&mdash;it takes thoughtful planning, employee training, and a strong, ongoing commitment to our operations. We&rsquo;re happy to make these investments because reducing our carbon footprint is important to us, to our customers, and to our West Michigan community.</p>

<h2>Environmental Benefits That Matter</h2>
<p>Our long-term recycling efforts have resulted in meaningful environmental conservation:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>3,276,614 gallons of water saved</strong>&nbsp;(According to National Geographic, producing one pound of cotton can take about 100 gallons of water)</li>
<li><strong>2,967,898 kWh of electricity conserved</strong></li>
<li><strong>308,342 gallons of oil saved through plastic recycling</strong></li>
<li><strong>6,267,396 pounds of air pollution reduced</strong></li>
<li><strong>8,533 cubic yards of landfill space preserved</strong></li>
<li><strong>7,667 trees saved, supporting cleaner air and healthier ecosystems</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><img alt="A conveyor belt loads recyclable materials." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-recycling/QBEK1_bekins-recycling_3.jpg" /></strong></p>
<h2>Giving Back Through Appliance Donation</h2>
<p>Sustainability isn&rsquo;t just about recycling&mdash;it&rsquo;s also about reuse. Many appliances we haul away are still in good working condition. These units are donated to <strong>families in need through LOVE INC of Muskegon County&rsquo;s Appliance Ministry</strong>, helping neighbors while reducing waste.</p>

Discover how modern induction cooking improves safety, efficiency, and control, making everyday meals easier for families with active little ones.

<p>Hi, I&rsquo;m Jeff Johnson, an employee at Bekins Appliances and Electronics in West Michigan. When my family chose to upgrade the kitchen in our Spring Lake home, I wanted an <a href="https://www.bekins.us/catalog/induction-ranges"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">induction range</span></a>. This would help keep my curious toddler safer at home.</p>
<p><img alt="A man cooks a meal at his induction range at home." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-induction-range/QBEK1_bekins-induction-range_1.jpg" style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" /> </p>
<h2>What Is an Induction Range?</h2>
<p>An induction range combines a slide-in design, convection oven, and induction cooktop. Unlike gas or traditional electric, induction heats your cookware directly with electromagnetic energy. This means the cooktop stays cooler and heats up faster.</p>
<p>If you haven&rsquo;t tried induction cooking, it&rsquo;s a game-changer for both safety and efficiency. We even tested gas and induction in our showroom to which would boil water faster and induction won.</p>
<p><iframe class="dsg-block-1-youtube-video" title=“Thinking About Switching to Induction? Watch This First” src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/84gAh-jai7A" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>
<h2>Why Induction Is Safer Than Gas or Electric</h2>
<p>Induction ranges offer several safety advantages over traditional cooktops:</p>
<ul>
<li>No open flame: Unlike gas, there&rsquo;s no fire risk. Toddlers or pets can&rsquo;t accidentally ignite a burner.</li>
<li>Cooler surfaces: The cooktop itself doesn&rsquo;t get hot except where the pan touches it, reducing burn risk.</li>
<li>Automatic pan detection: Induction won&rsquo;t heat unless a compatible pan is on the burner.</li>
</ul>
<p>These features make induction ideal for families, anyone with mobility challenges, or anyone who prioritizes kitchen safety.</p>
<h2>Why I Chose Induction</h2>
<ol>
<li>Safety for my toddler: No flame, no risk of turning on a burner accidentally.</li>
<li>Control features: My slide-in range allows me to lock the oven and cooktop elements, keeping little hands safe.</li>
<li>Cooler cooktop surface: The top doesn&rsquo;t stay hot long after cooking, reducing burn risks.</li>
</ol>
<h2>A Note About Installation</h2>
<p>Switching from our old gas stove to an induction range in our Spring Lake home required a small electrical upgrade. My wife and I hired an electrician to install the correct outlet and configuration for our new induction range.</p>
<p>While it&rsquo;s an extra step, it was quick and ensures the range operates safely and efficiently.</p>
<p>Also, my toddler watched the Bekins appliance installers every move and the guys were great about it.</p>
<p><img alt="A toddler looks on as two men install kitchen appliances in his home." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-induction-range/QBEK1_bekins-induction-range_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>It&rsquo;s Not Foolproof</h2>
<p>Even with induction, safety still requires attention:</p>
<ul>
<li>I stick to using the back burners whenever possible, since pans can still get hot.</li>
<li>The control lock doesn&rsquo;t work while cooking, so I always supervise my toddler around the range.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Final Thoughts</h2>
<p>For families with young kids, an induction range is a good choice. It offers quick cooking. It also provides accurate and safer cooking options. It blends modern technology, convenience, and peace of mind, making cooking both safer and more enjoyable.</p>

Why I Chose an Induction Range for My Family Kitchen in Spring Lake

Installing a powerful range hood? Learn how makeup air works, when it’s required, and how proper ventilation keeps Michigan homes balanced and comfortable.

<h2>What Is Makeup Air &mdash; and Why Does It Matter?</h2>
<p>In Michigan, if your range hood pulls too much air out of your kitchen, that air must be replaced. This &ldquo;tempered&rdquo; replacement air is called makeup air. &ldquo;Tempered&rdquo; means the replacement air must also be heated as well. Since Michigan homes can be very tightly insulated, it helps your home maintain balanced pressure and proper ventilation.</p>
<p><img alt="A range is featured in a modern kitchen with warm, natural colors." height="702" src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-makeup-air-range/QBEK1_bekins-makeup-air-range_1.jpg" width="702" /></p>
<h2>Is a Range Hood or Vent Required by Law?</h2>
<p>You might be surprised to learn that there is no law or code requiring a range hood or vent in your kitchen.</p>
<p>However, if you choose to install a hood that moves a high volume of air (measured in CFMs, or cubic feet per minute), local inspectors may require a makeup air system to bring fresh air back into your home.</p>
<h2>So Why Would You Want a High Performing Range Hood or Vent in the First Place</h2>
<ul>
<li><strong>Removes cooking odors</strong>: A hood helps eliminate lingering smells from foods like fish, bacon, or spices.</li>
<li><strong>Clears smoke and steam</strong>: Cooking often creates smoke, steam, or grease particles that can collect on surfaces. A vented hood keeps your kitchen air cleaner and fresher.</li>
<li><strong>Protects your kitchen finishes</strong>: Removing grease and moisture helps keep cabinets, walls, and ceilings in better shape over time.</li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="A kitchen range in a modern kitchen with a whtie and metallic backsplash." src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/assets/blog/brandsource_member_blogs/QBEK1/QBEK1_bekins-makeup-air-range/QBEK1_bekins-makeup-air-range_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Who Handles Makeup Air Requirements?</h2>
<p>While Bekins offers and installs a wide selection of range hoods and ventilation options, your builder or HVAC contractor handles the compliance.</p>
<p>Each project is unique, and the local building inspector ultimately determines:</p>
<ul>
<li>Whether makeup air is required.</li>
<li>The CFM threshold that triggers it.</li>
<li>How it must be implemented in your home.</li>
</ul>
<p>So if you are interested in a hood that moves a high volume of air, then we recommend you ask your builder, HVAC professional or local inspector if it will require makeup air in your home.</p>
<h2>Breathe Easy with Bekins</h2>

Whether you&rsquo;re updating your kitchen or building new, our team can&nbsp;guide you toward <a href="https://www.bekins.us/catalog/ventilation"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">range hoods and ventilation</span></a> systems that meet your needs &mdash; and work beautifully in your space.</p>

<p>Wolf has built its reputation on delivering <a href="https://www.bekins.us/catalog/cooking" target="_blank">professional-grade cooking appliances</a> to home kitchens. With decades of innovation and a focus on precision, durability, and design, Wolf appliances are trusted by serious home cooks and culinary pros alike.</p>
<p>When comparing Wolf products, it's helpful to understand the difference between their ranges and cooktops:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.bekins.us/catalog/ranges?manufacturer=49" target="_blank">Wolf ranges</a></strong> are full-size appliances that combine a cooktop and an oven in one integrated unit. They&rsquo;re ideal if you're looking to upgrade both cooking surfaces and baking capacity in one step.</li>
<li><strong><a href="https://www.bekins.us/catalog/cooktops?manufacturer=49" target="_blank">Wolf cooktops</a></strong>, on the other hand, are designed to be built into countertops. These give you flexibility in kitchen layout and allow you to pair them with a wall oven or other built-in units.</li>
</ul>
<p>Wolf offers a variety of fuel options, each with its own benefits:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Gas:</strong> Loved for its quick heat response and flame control.</li>
<li><strong>Dual-fuel:</strong> Combines a gas cooktop with an electric oven for the best of both worlds.</li>
<li><strong>Induction:</strong> Offers modern efficiency with fast, precise cooking and easy cleanup.</li>
</ul>
<p>Whether you're looking to buy a Wolf range for its all-in-one convenience or install a sleek cooktop setup with wall ovens, Wolf ovens and ranges are known for lasting quality, thoughtful design, and culinary performance that stands out.</p>
<h2><a id="choosing"></a>Choosing Between a Wolf Range and a Cooktop</h2>
<p><img alt="Luxury Kitchen with Wolf Appliance" height="333" src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/Don's/white-wolf-range-and-black-cabinets.webp?w=500" title="Wolf Appliance Luxury Kitchen" width="500" /></p>
<p>Selecting the right cooking setup comes down to how you use your kitchen, how much space you have, and your personal preferences. Both Wolf ranges and cooktops bring top-tier performance, but each has unique advantages depending on your needs.</p>
<h3>Pros of a Wolf Range:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Combines cooktop and oven in a single unit</li>
<li>Ideal for traditional kitchen designs or smaller spaces</li>
<li>Available in a variety of styles, including the Wolf electric range and Wolf dual fuel range</li>
