An annual checkup for your home—and your energy use (NC)—Your doctor insists on seeing you at least once a year. But have you considered the same sort of schedule for your home’s general health? After the coldest winter in the last 35 years, this spring and summer make the perfect time to go through an annual checklist of items, ensuring your home’s overall energy efficiency. According to the Ontario Natural Gas Alliance, investing minimal time can translate into maximum savings on household bills. In 2013, average natural gas residential customers in Ontario saved about $500 on their bills, compared to 2008. According to ONGA, a simple checklist every year can identify wans to potentially save money and keep your home humming, energy-wise. Keeping natural gas’ affordability in-mind is another way to help achieve cost savings. LIGHT IT UP Check all light sources to ensure that

you’re using energy efficient bulbs, and replace wherever possible. Compact fluorescent and LED bulbs may cost more at the outset, but they will often last at least 10 times as long vs. standard filament bulbs, and use up to one-fifth the energy. GET DOWN LOW Baseboards and vents are prime spots for air leakage. And when you spend hard earned dollars heating and cooling your home, the last thing you want is to see that money flow outside. Check that baseboards are caulked properly, where the trim meets the wall and the floor. SEAL THE DEAL Like baseboards, improperly sealed windows and doors can be a source of leaked energy savings. Ensure that trim work is caulked and weather-stripped on all sides. Consider replacing a mail slot with an exterior mailbox.

SWITCH FOR SAVINGS If natural gas is available in your area, consider taking advantage of the fuel to heat your home and for items such as your water tank and even your clothes dryer. With natural gas prices expected to remain low and affordable for decades to come, a natural gaspowered dryer can help save up to 75 per cent compared to models that run strictly on electricity.

Don’t let unwanted pests crash your patio party (NC) — Summer is a season for gathering with friends and family and for enjoying the great outdoors. Don’t be surprised, however, if pests arrive uninvited. Warming temperatures lead to all kinds of eco-activity and according to the experts at leading pest control company, Orkin Canada, the most likely pests you’ll encounter this summer are ants, mosquitos, stinging pests, ticks and rodents. “Most people are aware of the risks posed by mosquitos, bees, wasps and ticks, but they think that ants are simply a nuisance,” says Alice Sinia, Ph.D., the resident entomologist for Orkin. “The reality is that ants are the nation’s number one pest problem.” Sinia offers this helpful guideline: ANTS There are more than 47 different species of in Canada, ranging from carpenter ants (which are the most populous species capable of major structural damage) to European fire ants, whose painful bites can cause serious allergic reactions and can kill small mammals. As with most pests, the best way to deter ants is to limit their access to nesting sites, food and water. Clean up spilled food and drinks immediately, and keep food stored in air-tight containers, especially during outdoor picnics. Once ants find a food source, they leave behind an invisible

pheromone trail for others to follow. Check your home’s foundation for cracks and seal any openings, paying pay close attention to doors and windows. It is also important to check your attic and crawl spaces for leaks and condensation. Finally, don’t forget overgrown tree branches and bushes brushing against your home since they provide “highways” for the ants. MOSQUITOES These are one of the most dangerous pests and experts predict increased populations this summer due to the unusually high amount of snow during the past winter. Not only are mosquitoes annoying due to their constant presence, buzzing sounds and irritating bites, but they can also transmit diseases, including West Nile virus, malaria and yellow fever. To keep these pests at bay, always apply appropriately registered insect repellent before heading outdoors, especially at dawn and dusk when they are most active. Always read the label of insecticide repellent prior to use. Mosquitoes breed in stagnant water, regardless of size or amount. To help reduce activity around your home, get rid of any standing water and dense vegetation.

BEES AND WASPS Stings from these flying pests can cause anything from a minor irritation to severe allergic reactions. They are beneficial insects and typically do not sting unless provoked, so try to remain calm if they are flying around you. Frequently inspect for nests around your home and in empty garbage cans. Look for wax cells, sometimes papery or made of clay or mud and they may be located in wall voids, under slabs, along eaves, or in soil. Position flowering plants away from places you frequent, such as doorways, walkways, decks and mailboxes. TICKS AND RODENTS Not as common around the home, ticks are more prevalent in woodlands, fields, and in areas with shrubbery and tall grass. Experts suggest maintaining a well-kept yard, especially along the edges of your property. When venturing out into nature, wear long-sleeved shirts and light coloured pants so you can easily spot these bloodsucking pests. The primary hosts of ticks are small mammals, particularly rodents. Therefore, it is advisable to have a rodent control program in place for your backyard if your home is in a heavily wooded or densely vegetated area. Ticks pose health risks to both humans and pets, so check your pets frequently and consult with your veterinarian about tick prevention treatments. . These tips will help ensure that pests don’t crash your backyard barbecue, and stay out of your home. If you suspect that you already have an infestation, you should contact your local pest control professional immediately.

Keep water out of your house (NC) Last summer, Canadians experienced two of the worst natural catastrophes in our history. First, the flooding in southern Alberta, followed a few weeks later by the same in the Greater Toronto Area. Both disasters resulted in thousands of people reporting water damage in their homes. “Water damage, whether sustained during a severe storm or the spring thaw, is impacting more and more people,” says Henry Hamm,, Director of Underwriting, Personal Insurance at leading property insurer RSA Insurance“I don’t think people realize just how much damage water can do, and how disruptive it can be to their lives. But there are a few simple steps homeowners take to help protect their property.” A few things you should do now: • Have a licensed plumbing professional install an inline backwater valve to help prevent sewer backup.

Check with your municipality regarding any permits required or by-laws that may exist. • Install a sump pump to prevent ground water from entering your basement. Check the sump regularly to make sure it is functioning properly. If you choose to install an electric sump pump, you will also want to install a battery operated back-up in the event of a power outage, which often happens during a storm. • Install wire mesh or braided hoses on washing machines and dishwashers to protect from leakage or rupture. • Keep your drains and toilets free of household grease and other foreign objects that can cause blockage. • Check with your municipality to see if they offer plumbing inspection services or a subsidy for installing a sump pump or backwater valve. “When it comes to the exterior of your home, you really want to think about how to keep water away from your

house,” continues Hamm. “That means checking your downspouts as its common for them to be knocked away from the house in the winter, as well as making sure that eaves are clear and are properly funneling water away from your house.” Talk to your broker to make sure you have the appropriate insurance coverage.

Beautify your patio with outdoor-friendly materials (NC) Have you ever wondered why some products are suitable for the outdoors while others can only be kept inside? “Outdoor furniture and accessories are made with materials that offer more durability and weather-resistant appeal,” says Aimee Beatty, an inhouse stylist with Pier 1 Imports. “Durability doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice style, however. There are many items that could look just as beautiful inside your home, but are durable enough for the outdoor elements.” Next time you’re out shopping for your patio or garden, keep these specific materials in mind: SYNTHETIC FIBRES Ever think about all the abuse from the elements that outdoor pillows, seat cushions and umbrellas suffer? Between the sun, the rain and everything in between, fabrics made for outdoor use are designed to withstand

the elements, keeping your newly designed patio fresh for all the parties to come. Synthetic fibres used in these fabrics are designed to bead water, resist stains and maintain their colour. You can also lengthen the life span of such materials by covering them when not in use and avoiding prolonged exposure. ACRYLICS AND MELAMINE Outdoor drinkware and dinnerware made of acrylic and melamine provide much of the same great style as their glass counterparts without the breakability. A nice set of acrylic drinkware and melamine dinnerware, such as Summer Quench Turquoise Goblets and Trellis Dinnerware, both from Pier 1 Imports (www.pier1.ca), will keep your outdoor soiree safe and fun throughout the evening. SYNTHETIC RATTAN AND WICKER Wicker may be the traditional material for outdoor furniture, but this new

generation of synthetic wickers and rattans is not your grandmother’s porch furniture. All-weather chairs, tables and more are woven of synthetic rattan or wicker over durable, rust-resistant frames, making them durable and easy to clean. This approach offers the flexibility to incorporate a woven look into furniture of all styles from traditional to modern and global to whimsical without sacrificing durability and longevity.
