P r e s i d e n t ’s M e s s a g e
Hello Members, Please join me in congratulating the newly-elected 2011/2012 Institute of Housing Management Board of Directors. It was your vote that selected the successful candidates and I assure you that each board member has been very busy working on committees, implementing the strategic plan initiatives and embracing new opportunities to further the efforts of IHM. The conference in April was a great success and plans are already under way for the 2012 event. We hope to provide you with the education and networking experience you desire; so if you have a workshop preference, be sure to give us a call. And speaking of success, - when was the last time that you celebrated an achievement or accomplishment? I hope it was recently..... I feel that we are often remiss in celebrating the success of others or ourselves. The celebration doesn’t need to be elaborate or expensive; it just needs to feel good and celebrated or shared with others. In property management, celebration is needed when we make it through the week without a fire, flood or major maintenance issue. Celebration is also needed when staff demonstrate good team effort, a major project is completed or the press calls us for a good news story. What about your own personal achievements and goal setting? The ability to be humble is a good virtue but it sure is a lot of fun to embrace the moment, shout “I did it” and curl the ends of our mouth upwards in a BIG SMILE. And this type of energy can be contagious; it can make others want to succeed as well. So I want you to take a few moments to really think about that last celebration and if it has been a while ... then it is time to revisit your expectations. Maybe it is time to celebrate the “small stuff”, the extra mile that we walked this week or the latest book that we finally finished. Smile, laugh and celebrate! Best wishes for a fun, successful and enjoyable summer.
Regards, Deborah Filice, FIHM, President

External Facade Refurbishment of Multiunit Residential Buildings By Eleanor McAteer, P.Eng. and Staff of Kleinfeldt Consultants Limited
“O
vercladding” refers to the installation of lightweight “rainscreen” covers over the existing façades of older buildings. The primary focus of these external façade refurbishments is on the application of building science, remediation of the structural elements and implementing improvements to the indoor environment. The following article discusses some of the important elements involved in the successful remediation of older European high-rise co-operative buildings that were constructed in an era where energy costs were not considered important. Over 70 of these refurbishment projects have been successfully completed in the United Kingdom, Denmark and other European nations.
Toronto’s “Tower Renewal Project” Over 30% of the residents of the GTA live in buildings over 8 stories in height. These structures use much more energy and resources than necessary and account for a considerable portion of the energy demand in the GTA. In addition, many buildings are approaching the end of their effective service life and are definitely showing their age. (Engineering studies indicate that more than 70% of these buildings require major repairs and upgrades.) However, they are considered an

extremely valuable resource and were the focus of a detailed study – the ”Tower Renewal Guidelines” prepared by Professor Ted Kesik & Architect Ivan Saleff of the University of Toronto, John H. Daniels Faculty of Architecture, Landscape and Design.
‘...if the issue of “shelf life” is not addressed, the buildings will eventually become a major expense and the prospect of demolition and replacement will become the only viable alternative.’ The study indicated that the buildings represent cost-effective candidates for retrofit strategies because the solid exterior masonry walls offer an excellent substrate for the support of overcladding systems. They also concluded that when combined with other energy-saving measures it would be possible to substantially reduce the energy requirements of the buildings, as well as improving general comfort levels and air quality.
The buildings’ ability to generate revenue will gradually decrease while at the same time the cost of maintenance and routine repairs will rise. In other words, if the issue of “shelf life” is not addressed the buildings will eventually become a major expense and the prospect of demolition and replacement will become the only viable alternative.
Financing Overcladding Retrofits One of the primary challenges regarding overcladding is focused on the cost and financing. Aside from the fact that some incentives are in place and that innovative funding mechanisms have been developed the city still faces challenges in moving forward. The funding required to undertake comprehensive projects that include recladding is substantial. The projects can typically require about 10 years’ worth of energy and maintenance savings to pay off the investment capital required. Due to this level of investment, the projects require a source of funding that is not based on mortgage financing to make undertaking them more feasible. The projects are basically paid off by using the reduced operating costs. Through securing the payment of longterm project fees through the possibility of collecting any defaulted payments as property taxes, and by packaging together a number of projects, favorable financing rates can be arranged. continued on page 4

To put this financing option into practice the City would create a corporation to arrange the financing and the Provincial government must make regulatory changes. Of course once the project is paid off, the gains from dramatically reduced operating costs are tremendous.
Advantages of Overcladding Systems Overcladding technology is almost certainly an “exportable” technology. It will also lead to a tremendous number of job creation opportunities and significant overall economic stimulus. Additional advantages of overcladding include: • The work can be carried out while the building is still in use with minimal impact on occupancy. • Improves energy efficiency, thermal performance & air tightness. • Optimizes use of thermal mass. • Increases the life expectancy of the building. • Renews ageing facades and improves appearance of the structure. • Lowers maintenance costs and allows upgrading of building services. • Improves air quality, sound insulation and general comfort. • Helps eliminate internal problems such as condensation and mould. • Viewed as more financially and ecologically reasonable than demolition and reconstruction. • Retrofits eventually pay for themselves through energy savings. Experience in Europe where many cooperative high-rise towers had been revitalized has shown that the process, as one might expect, can take a considerable length of time to complete. An important inclusion in the overall project is dealing with any existing deficiencies that must be repaired prior to under taking the revitalization. European models also suggest that it is beneficial to complete an initial assessment to determine feasible strategies, associated costs and timelines.

The key performance issues are safety, occupant comfort, stability, structural performance, acoustics, energy efficiency, control strategies, air quality/ventilation, daylighting, maintenance/cleaning and cost. Overcladding designs also need to consider connection details, thermal & moisture movement, loads on the system, acoustics, air permeability, cavity ventilation, water penetration resistance, condensation, fire performance, mainte-
FAST FACTS • Although the concept may appear simple enough at first glance, overcladding retrofits represent a building science challenge of the highest order and require a considerable amount of planning & logistics. • A comprehensive overcladding project on a larger building requires over 30,000 “person hours” of effort to complete. • No single approach, system or design strategy can be applied to all structures. Each building must be inspected, assessed and evaluated separately. • Over 30% of all Canadians live in some form of “multi-unit” building that was built before 1970. This means that before the end of this decade these structures will be 50 years old – on average. • Any suggestion that we demolish them and start over is considered cost prohibitive. These buildings represent an incredibly vast store of “embedded” energy and capital. If we were to start from “scratch” today it would cost about six times as much (in today’s dollars) to construct this building stock as it did 40 or 50 years ago.
nance, and serviceability. There are also technical issues related to the building permit process, building code and bylaw requirements to be considered. In comparison to demolition, the cost to retrofit a single unit ranges between $25,000 and $50,000. This cost is approximately the same as was spent to construct the building in the 1960’s. The structural elements, if properly protected by replaceable facades, could remain stable for hundreds of years. These buildings are also usually located in “clusters” and a tremendous amount of energy is saved because residents are close to stores, public transit, and other amenities. Many European cities have already successfully retrofitted residential co-operative high-rises and townhouses and have thus demonstrated the feasibility of the concept. Many European nations that suffered serious damage to their housing stock in WW II and rebuilt quickly have already demonstrated the feasibility of overcladding technologies and are approximately 12 to 16 years ahead of us in this specialty. Overcladding expertise is “exportable” and has the potential to create a tremendous number of job opportunities and would also create significant overall economic stimulus.
Resource Conservation Measures Typically the following resource conservation measures are considered in a comprehensive tower retrofit: • Replace existing roof with an R-20 system • Enclose balconies • Overclad walls • Replace windows • Replace or refurbish boilers • Replace or refurbish chillers • Waste diversion measures • Water efficiency measures • Automated lighting controls continued on page 5
IHM News • Summer 2011
Several examples of successful cooperative building overcladding projects were supplied to the authors by the Confederation of Cooperative Housing in the United Kingdom. In total, more than 70 co-operative high-rises have been successfully overclad. One example was the New Addington Estate, located in Croydon, England where the co-operative undertook the comprehensive refurbishment of an 11storey building that involved installation of external insulation and aluminium overcladding, internal drywalling of walls next to stairwells, double-glazed windows, roof insulation and a new heating system. The total cost of the renovations was $28,000 (Canadian) per unit; however, heat loss was reduced by 45% and weekly heating bills were approximately 80% less. Another example was in Glasgow, Scotland where the West Whitlawburn Housing co-operative refurbished their Kintore and Roslin Towers multi-storey buildings. According to the Technical Director of the Co-operative, “It was hard work to secure the multimillion pound funding packages for each tower but the staff and committee worked tirelessly to achieve it and never gave up hope. We are delighted that the tenants in Kintore and Roslin Towers can now finally have the quality of housing they deserve.”

It should be stressed that overcladding design, installation and commissioning will require a tremendous amount of cold weather building science expertise - a field where Canada is a recognized world leader. The authors view this challenge as a task that Canada is well equipped to tackle.

Highlights of the 2011 IHM Conference “Let’s Get Technical”
I
t doesn’t get much better than this year’s conference held at the Holiday Inn Kitchener-Waterloo Hotel & Conference Centre from April 27-29. The concurrent sessions included presentations on today’s most important topics – Hoarding, AODA, Bedbugs & Pest Control, and Emergency Management, to name a few. Industry favourite, Harry Fine, was on hand for a 2-day pre-conference workshop “Tips, Hints and Must Do’s When Presenting at the Landlord & Tenant Board”, followed by a concurrent session “Human Rights Considerations”.
The trade show attracted 15 companies exhibiting the latest in industry products and services, and delegates spent a great deal of time meeting with exhibitors. The conference wrapped up with a keynote presentation by Dr. Robert Buckman. The audience listened attentively to his presentation “How To Communicate So People Will Listen”. There’s no question, Dr. Buckham knows how to practice what he preaches. On the lighter side, delegates enjoyed a traditional Oktoberfest evening at the Schwaben Club, and the farewell banquet featured Mentalist & Magician, Bobby Motta, and the Chalkboard Menu Band.
President, Deborah Filice, welcomes delegates to the 2011 Annual Educational Conference in Kitchener – Let’s Get Technical.
Keynote luncheon speaker, Mary Bales, Chair of Heartwood Place, shared the challenges and rewards of providing affordable housing in the Region of Waterloo.

Property Managers Get Pet Owners to Clean Up after Their Dogs By Anuradha Kher, Online News Editor
W
hat can property managers do when dog owners don’t pick up after their dogs? Under normal circumstances, not much, because there is no way of knowing who the violators might be. But now, with a new program called PooPrints that uses DNA to identify the dog in question, managers can catch the culprit (dog owner) in a matter of days.
can cause blindness. In the past decade, E. coli bacteria from dog droppings has been identified as a significant source of pollution in rivers, parks and regional watersheds. Debbie Logan, a property manager at Twin Ponds Development in Nashua, N.H., which has been using PooPrints, says, “Even though we provide pet stations and dog playgrounds, we quickly learned that a small percentage of our residents were not cleaning up after their pets. As a popular community with pet lovers, a small percentage of violators could ruin it for the responsible residents.”
PooPrints is a dog DNA identification program from BioPet Vet Lab, built on a scientific foundation, providing communities with a means to enforce community regulations for pet waste clean-up. “The problem of pet owners not picking up after their pets is tearing apart communities,” says BioPet Vet Lab CEO Tom Boyd. Consumer Reports lists “dog poop” as one of the nation’s top-10 personal gripes. So BioPet Vet Lab used its research in animal DNA identification systems to help provide community leaders with a tool to bring peace back to the neighborhood.
To participate in the program, communities make it mandatory for pet owners to register their pets in the PooPrints DNA database. Offending waste left on-site is collected and analyzed. When a DNA match is discovered, the community has the evidence needed to warn or fine the pet owner.
BioPet Lab recognized this as a big problem. In the United States alone, 73 million dogs generate approximately 6.3 billion pounds of waste annually. Approximately 40 percent, or 2.5 billion pounds, is never picked up by owners, according to the company. Apart from the aesthetic issue, dog feces creates a lot of nuisance. It is a bacterial breeding ground of diseases that is especially dangerous to children and others with weakened immune systems. Toxocara canis, a roundworm found in dog waste, is especially dangerous to children and
Within the first four samples tested, two violators were quickly identified at Twin Ponds. According to Logan, “The program is just fantastic for us. It was easy to implement and everybody wins. We are spending less time looking for violators, and residents have a clean, healthy community.”

Jim Simpson, president of BioPet Lab, says, “Once someone chooses to enroll the property in the program, we provide kits for $30 per dog to the property. They collect a cheek swab of any dog associated with the property and mail it to us. Once the dogs’ DNA are on file, if there is a violator, they mail a small sample of the feces and then we look for a match based on the DNA base we have.” For testing of each sample, it costs the property manager another $50.
