Simple solutions for big renovation challenges (BPT) - Americans are renovating again. In fact, the remodeling market hasn’t been this robust since 2004, according to the National Association of Home Builders’ Remodeling Market Index. Yet even the most enthusiastic homeowners-turned-renovators may hesitate when faced with certain common challenges - be it adding a bathroom in a problematic location or figuring out how to bring natural light into an interior room. But virtually every renovation challenge is solvable, and sometimes the answers are surprisingly simple and cost-effective. Here are three common issues you may encounter while renovating, and the astoundingly simple ways to overcome the obstacles: The challenge: Adding a bathroom over concrete flooring or in a tight spot where traditional plumbing doesn’t work well. The simple solution: Up-flush plumbing. Bathroom renovations or additions offer a high return on investment - as much as 56 percent of the initial investment when you resell, according to Remodeling Magazine’s Cost vs. Value Report. But conventional plumbing can be costly and time-consuming, even in the best circumstances. If you want to add a bathroom in a basement where the floor is concrete or in a smaller space with no room for traditional piping, an up-flush, or macerating, toilet is a simple, cost-effective solution. Systems like Saniflo’s macerating toilet and plumbing technology eliminate the need to cut through a floor to install new drainage. And the systems fit easily into areas as small as a closet or dead space beneath a stairway. A macerating pump reduces waste and paper

from the toilet and sends it under high pressure through piping directly into the septic or sewer system. No waste is stored, and the systems are comparatively low-cost compared to traditional plumbing. Visit www.saniflo.com to learn more. The challenge: Introducing natural light in a room with no space for windows. The simple solution: Skylights. The benefits of natural light are well-documented, from improving mood to reducing dependence on artificial lights. Yet some spaces, such as interior powder rooms or walk-in closets, don’t lend themselves to windows. When you want natural light in a room where a lack of wall space precludes a window, or in which privacy is an issue, a skylight can be a great solution. Tubular skylights even allow you to bring natural light into ground floor rooms. The cost of installing a skylight is comparable to adding quality windows in a room. Choose energy-efficient skylights and you may also reduce home cooling costs in spring and summer, and lighting costs in winter, too. The challenge: Privacy in a doorway where a swinging door doesn’t make sense. The simple solution: Pocket doors. A swinging door may not be right for a space for many reasons. Perhaps you need to close a door in a spot so infrequently that a swinging door isn’t needed. Or, maybe the space around the doorway is too tight to accommodate a swinging door, such as in a laundry space tucked into a hallway.

A new furnace is certain to improve your home’s energy efficiency.

Boost your home’s energy efficiency (BPT) - It’s that time of year again, when the cold wind blows outdoors and your home works as hard as it can to keep you warm and comfortable indoors. Yet your home may be working harder than necessary, while inflating your energy bills in the process. By making a few home renovations this winter, you can boost energy efficiency, save money and add value to your home in the long run. Now is a good time to make energy-efficient renovations. More than 90 percent of the 116 million homes in the United States are expected to have higher heating expenditures this winter compared with last winter, mainly due to changes in energy prices, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). Heating and cooling account for about 54 percent of a home’s utility bills, according to energy.gov. Because of this, it makes good sense to make efficiency improvements now. Here are some tips for making your home run more efficiently this winter. Change your furnace filter. A dirty furnace filter can restrict airflow and increase energy use in your home. Keeping your furnace clean, updated and properly adjusted can save about 5 percent on heating costs. To increase the efficiency of your furnace, replace or clean the filters once a month during the high-use months. Upgrade to a more efficient furnace. Consider upgrading to a more efficient and reliable furnace. For example, the Trane XC95m gas furnace has a fully modulating gas valve and a variable speed fan for efficient, consistent warmth throughout your home.-As the industry’s first fully modulating furnace, its unique technology prevents your home’s system from overshooting the set temperature, eliminating temperature swings and moderating your system’s

energy usage. Reduce heat loss from windows. Ten to 25 percent of your heating bill each month can often be attributed to heat lost through your home’s windows, according to energy.gov. Replace old windows with more energy efficient ones so your heating system doesn’t have to work as hard to manage your home’s desired temperature. Keeping shades and draperies open during the day will also take advantage of the sun’s warmth and allow for a more efficient system. Create an energy command center. Some of the newest technologies literally put home energy control at your fingertips. For instance, with a Trane ComfortLink II Control you can monitor indoor and outdoor temperatures, adjust your HVAC system for energy efficiency and learn when it’s time to change a filter or schedule routine maintenance - all from a 7-inch touchscreen. It comes paired with an energy management system that analyzes your home’s energy usage 24/7 and reports how much is being spent on electricity. Choose ENERGY STAR products. Your home’s appliances and electronics account for close to 20 percent of your energy bills, according to energy.gov. Using ENERGY STAR-certified products - which incorporate advanced technologies that use 10 to 15 percent less energy and water than standard models - throughout your home could save nearly $900 over the lifetime of the products. Schedule seasonal maintenance. During the heavy-use winter months, it’s a good idea to schedule an HVAC system checkup. A qualified dealer can perform preventive maintenance to ensure your heating system is operating properly and safely and advise you on ways to improve energy efficiency. To find a dealer near you,

A few simple updates can change the personality of your home.

Put your stamp on your new home (BPT) - This year more than 5.4 million homes were sold by the end of August, according to the National Association of Realtors. Are you one of these millions of new homeowners? If so, you’ve most likely felt the urge to settle in immediately. However, before making any major renovations, it’s a good idea to live in a new home a while to see how the space is meeting your needs. Here are a few swift swaps that will have a big impact in making that new house feel like home sweet home. Personalize with paint It may be the most obvious update but painting is an easy solution to change the look of a room in an instant. Whether you paint an entire room,-create a bold accent wall or incorporate glossy white trim, paint is an affordable fix for any home. You can easily and quickly bring your design ideas to life with Shape Tape from FrogTape. Available in three on-trend patterns: Wave, Chevron and Scallop, Shape Tape makes it simple to achieve unique, repetitive decorative painting styles. Each roll of tape features a pre-cut repeating pattern, so all you need to do is simply unroll, apply and get painting to create your desired look. From delicate, narrow waves throughout a bathroom or nursery, to bold, wide chevron patterns in the living area or bedroom, this tape can be used in any room of the house. Fabulous frames When moving into a new space, the things you love should take center stage. Once your home reflects who you are, the rest will slowly fall into place. Photo frames are the ideal choice to add a decorative and personalized touch to any room. Bring this common decor pick into the modern age by creating a personal gallery and displaying frames of varying shapes and sizes. To do this, plan the layout of the frames before hanging, either with paper on the wall or by arranging them on the floor. Or, you can simply purchase prearranged frame galleries at home decor retailers. Faucet focus Kitchen and bath makeovers tend to have the biggest impact on

a home and its resale value. However, new homeowners who are strapped for cash may not have a large budget for a full-scale bathroom remodel. Fortunately, there are several basic swaps that can quickly change the look and feel of a bath. The easiest way to remodel your bathroom is to replace its hardest-working fixture - the faucet. This is a project new homeowners can tackle themselves at a reasonable price. Moen offers a wide variety of faucet options like the new single-handle Boardwalk bathroom faucet, to add a fresh, elegant look to the sink. Available at Lowe’s, Boardwalk fits almost any decor and comes in Moen’s Spot Resist Brushed Nickel finish, which resists fingerprints and water spots, so the faucet will stay looking clean as you show it off to family and friends. For a polished look, swap out old hardware with affordable, coordinated accessories including robe hooks, towel rings and towel bars. Energy-saving essentials Wasting energy means wasting money. When you go from a renter to a home owner, it’s important to recognize and fix energy-draining areas before bills pile up. Caulking around windows and spaces between the floor and baseboards in attics and sun rooms will help prevent drafts. Consider purchasing a draft stopper for the bottoms of doors so wind or heat doesn’t slip through. Additionally, service your furnace annually, so it produces more heat while using less energy. Let there be light Lighting is a great way to add warmth to a sparse space. If you’re looking to create an intimate atmosphere, place several table lamps throughout the room. -You can also amp up energy savings by switching to LED bulbs - these bulbs don’t cause heat buildup and last up to 10 times as long as compact fluorescents and 20 times longer than incandescent bulbs. It’s very easy for decorating to become overwhelming for new homeowners. By starting with these few swift home decor swaps, your new home will be a comfortable and welcoming environment in no time.
