Basement Ceiling Leak - Part 2 - Initial Correction Attemps

March 29th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Yesterday we discovered the water stain in one of our basement’s drop ceiling tiles. We had just contacted Bruce, our contractor for his guidance.
After being informed that the pipe in question was an air pipe, I then asked if it was possible that the leak originated from the roof where the pipe extended out beyond the […]

Home Energy Conservation Products Site Sponsors

Energy conservation products from the following site sponsors are used in our home:

Dreamscreens is a retractable screen ideal for exterior front or back doors, single or French Doors, in- or out-swinging, that you don’t want hidden behind bulky old-fashioned screen doors.

Where is the energy conservation? Without adequate cross-ventillation, the inside of our home can very quickly overheat with only moderate outdoor temperatures causing the air conditioner to run prematurely.

Having professional looking, easy to install, screens the full width & length of our front and back doors will provide significant cross-ventilation, reducing our air conditioning use in the spring, summer and fall, thus reducing the size of our electricity bills and carbon footprint.

UPDATE: Late the week of June 1st we expect to have Dreamscreens installed on our French Door, soon after which we will begin a new series on the product, it's installation and usage in our home. Finally we can get ventillation on the main floor of our home!

Click on the Dreamscreens logo above to learn more about this product directly from the manufacturer's web site.

This screen-like product fits on the outside of any size or shape of window repelling much of the sun's direct UV rays, significantly reducing the inside temperature without reducing the view.

The cost? Under $3 / square foot.

We have written a series of articles with many pictures on our experiences installing this product and show how it reduced the reading on the temperature gauge in our family room by 15 degrees F, starting with Part 1 - The Need.

We are extremely pleased with EZ Snap solar blinds and believe this simple to install energy saving product it can work for you as well. Click on the graphic above to access the manufacturer's web site to learn more.

The Solaris 24V cordless, electric, self-propelled lawn mower from Linamar Consumer Products has the power of a high-end gas mower, even in long grass.

So what? This mower can run completely off-grid via it's solar charging station option. No gas emissions. No plugging into an electrical outlet to recharge. No operating costs.

Both the National Post on Friday April 4, 2008 and Toronto Star on Saturday April 5, 2008 published articles on this new product.

Select Part 1 - No More Excuses to start reading about our experiences with this completely environmentally friendly mower.

Replacement Front Door - Update

Good News! Today, April 11, 2008, we received word that the door manufacturer and the retailer have agreed to not only redo the installation but also to provide a new front door (rather than simply removing the current door and re-installing it). We are VERY appreciative of this situation.

Another Update Today, May 12, 2008 we have been advised that June 6, 2008 is the scheduled date for the delivery of the door from the manufacturer to the retailer. Once the store inspects the door we are to receive a phone call to arrange a day and time for the removal of the current door and the installation of the replacement for the replacement. How did we arrive at this situation? We will tell you in future articles as part of our Exterior Replacement Door series. To start at the beginning of this series, simply select this link to Exterior Replacement Door - Part 1 - The Ad in the Paper .
