Replace old windows for a healthier home If your home was built before 1978 and you still have the original windows, it’s time to seriously consider replacing your windows – especially if you have young children or a pregnant person living in the home.
eating paint chips -- it’s that the child may be exposed every day to unseen contaminated lead dust particles that have settled in household dust. The lead-contaminated dust is often connected with the operation of the window.
According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the routine opening and closing of windows in homes built prior to 1978 can disturb lead-based paint around the windows, causing paint dust and chips to be released into the air. These lead particles are so dangerous that the EPA now requires contractors to be trained and certified before they can perform any renovation, repair or painting projects that may have previously applied leadbased paint.
According to Nevin, one of the most important long-term investments a homeowner can make for the overall safety of a family is to replace older windows, using the EPAapproved lead safe renovation guidelines. “If you live in a home built before 1978, and you have single-pane windows, replace them now,” says Nevin. “This is one of the only ways to reduce lead risks for your family. Make sure to use only a contractor that is certified in lead-safe work practices and strongly consider the use of ENERGY STAR(R) qualified windows, like the vinyl
“Research indicates that the everyday activity of opening and closing windows creates friction that then allows lead dust to enter the air,” says Rick Nevin, a consultant to the National Center for Healthy Housing (NCHH). “This dust is invisible to the naked eye, yet it can contaminate the home and expose residents to this harmful substance.
Nevin relates that the most common problem with lead in paint is not that a child is
Energy costs are a concern for all home owners. With volatile prices for electricity and natural gas, you have to find savings wherever possible and one of the biggest potentials to cut home heating costs is staring you, literally, in the face.
All windows sold in BC, except solid wood framed windows, are now required to be tested to meet the BC Energy Efficiency Act and carry a label that indicates the U-value, or overall heating loss rating. The lower the number, the more efficient the window. A U-value of 2.0 or less is mandated under the regulations. One way to tell is to look for the Energy Star label. Certified for quality and energy efficiency, Energy Star windows lower your heating costs, reduce condensation and keep your home warm in winter and cool in summer.
Older homes could have lead-based paint around the windows – which is dangerous to your health.

“At Irly, we advocate that replacing older windows coated with lead-based paint with vinyl windows is a sensible step for homeowners who want to create a healthier home environment,” says Trevor Stephenson with Irly Building Centre. “Installing durable, energy-efficient vinyl windows offers homeowners peace-of-mind along with energy savings in the home.”
The average room can lose between 20-50% of its heat through the windows. New developments in window technology and frame construction can improve the energy efficiency of your home’s windows by up to 50%.
“Young children, whose developmental skills and brain functions are subjected to the lead dust, can be especially negatively impacted. Toddlers put their hands in their mouths ... and after playing on the floor near a window, they can easily transfer the lead dust into their mouths. The ingested lead travels through the bloodstream to a child’s developing brain, causing many types of neurobehavioral damage.”

The heat is on Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing more damaging to a kitchen countertop surface than direct heat. Be it from a pot, dish or pan, intense direct heat placed on most countertop surfaces will cause irreparable damage. This is why most consumers when choosing a new countertop surface for their kitchens verify the surfaceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to resist heat because you never know when accidents will happen. Consumers donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t realize the importance of heat resisting surfaces until they have an incident where their counters are burned and the aesthetic quality of their kitchen is greatly affected. Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re building a new kitchen, or simply renovating, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to give careful consideration to your choice of countertop materials to ensure that the surface is durable, heatresistant and will last.
Sear-proof countertops cool the competition Your countertops will be the first thing that people notice and they can set the tone for your whole kitchen design scheme. This is precisely what can happen if you choose non-heat resisting countertop surfaces
such as wood and laminates. Natural and engineered stone countertops like Granite, Marble and Quartz have proven to be heat-resistant but are not burn proof so avoiding direct contact with very hot items is still recommended.
