(NAPS)—Cold weather means it’s time for two activities: fantasy football and home maintenance. This year, manage your home improvement projects—like sealing gaps and cracks—the same way you manage your fantasy football team. How? Add top picks like silicone caulk to your home weatherization product lineup and ignore poor performers like acrylic caulk. Acrylic caulk may get you the first down, providing savings for the present, but silicone caulk is the lasting solution that scores energy savings season after season. Block Air Leaks Gaps and cracks around the home lead to air leaks that can blitz your wallet and cause energy bills to soar. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, you could save up to 10 percent on energy bills by simply air sealing your home. Look for gaps and cracks in all susceptible areas— windows, doors, siding, trim, molding, baseboards, vents, around wires/pipes, attics and basements. A silicone caulk like GE Silicone II Window & Door is an all-pro defensive blocker for sealing these areas because it is permanently waterproof and weatherproof, meaning it will never break down and sacks air leaks before they rush your home. Acrylic caulk, on the other hand, succumbs to a punishing ground game. It can degrade over time when exposed to harsh weather and freezing temperatures, leaving gaps for air and water to seep through and energy to escape. Tackle Harsh Weather Damaging outdoor elements challenge your home throughout the year, but these harsh conditions are no match for silicone’s outlasting flexibility. Silicone caulk can stretch and compress without cracking, and fills the crack just as it did when first applied to keep air leaks from returning. Silicone is shrink-proof, impervious to all weather conditions and won’t be benched with costly cracks. Acrylic caulk, however, fumbles home protection in the presence of tough opponents. It can lose flexibility in freezing temperatures and crack over time. Extreme heat and the sun’s UV rays can also cause some acrylic caulk to dry out, crack and crumble. This can lead to gaps and cracks around your home that let energy out and water and snow in, resulting in water damage, mold growth and higher energy bills. Silicone is the player that will help you score lasting energy savings. Poor-performing acrylic caulk can leave you with a losing season. Add silicone caulk to your team now.

(NAPS)—Selling a house in today’s market can be a challenge. The solution may be to think outside the box— or, in this case, outside the structure. In the past, a little paint and some minor renovations might have done the trick, but with so many homes for sale, homeowners are finding interesting new ways to boost curb appeal and buyer interest. While steps such as cleaning up and investing in some landscapes can still deliver results, more homeowners are attracting buyer interest with a system of exterior insulation known as “Outsulation®.” Exterior insulation has been shown to lower energy bills and raise buyer interest. Susan Malone of Warwick, Rhode Island, used Outsulation by Dryvit to replace the drab clapboard on her home with a new stonelike exterior complete with architectural flourishes and decorative window accents. The makeover raised her appraisal value and attracted new buyers. “The transformation of my home has been nothing short of amazing—both from the standpoint of how much more beautiful it is and the effect the renovation had on increasing the value of my home. I have been able to save so much money on my energy bills,” said Malone. She used Outsulation by Dryvit, which lets you create an entirely new image. It can be adhesively or mechanically fastened over a building code–approved water-resistive barrier to plywood or OSB substrate. The system offers the look of any traditional finish, including brick, limestone, stucco and stone, plus threedimensional details like arches, window borders, decorative columns and dramatic doorways. Besides improving the way it looks, such exterior insulation makes a home more energy efficient. It reduced air leakage in Malone’s home by 19 percent—the equivalent of closing up a hole in the wall that would be the size of a soccer ball, or of leaving your front door open for 25 minutes every day. The Outsulation system reduced Malone’s energy bills by 35 percent and helped dampen noise. “My dogs used to wake me up barking at just about any noise they would hear, including the airplanes constantly coming and going over the house,” said Malone, who lives in a fly zone. “But since the renovation, the dogs don’t hear all the sounds they used to, so we are all getting a lot more sleep.” For more information, call (800) 556-7752; in Canada, call (800) 263-3308; or visit www.dryvithomes.com.

Making Your Family At Home— In A New Home
(NAPS)—Most families choose to make a major household move during the summer months. In fact, nearly 40 million Americans move every year, with the majority of those moves occurring between May and August. But others may be faced with the challenge of moving as the season closes, after school has started. Heeding a few tips from the experts can smooth the transition for unlucky fall movers and help schoolaged children easily adapt. First, host a small gathering with neighbors about two weeks after moving in. The time distances you from the initial stress of moving, yet no one expects everything to be unpacked. Plus, inviting other children to your house makes it less awkward for your child to make new friends. If they’re young, give them moving boxes to play with and serve snacks on paper napkins. Keep it simple, fun and short. Odds are your child will be invited to one of their homes to reciprocate soon after and you’ll have started the ball rolling. Barbara Miller, an interior designer for kids, recommends making a child’s room look and feel as much like the old room as possible. “In general, moving is stressful. I like to make the new room look and feel as much like the old room as possible,” says Miller. “You can even paint the walls the same color. Color is a strong sensory trigger and can either comfort or agitate children.” Older children and teens may want to redecorate their room as part of the excitement of moving. Even in these instances, Miller suggests that you keep some elements unchanged. “How the bed is situated in relation to the bedside table, clock and light—things that would be routine—should remain the same,” says Miller. “It’s these little things that no one thinks about until 10 p.m. when children are in tears because they’re tired and don’t know where to turn off the light.” Lastly, schedule your high-speed Internet, digital cable TV and phone connection in advance of the move in a single step at www.cablemover.com. Like most movers, having online access to the nearest carry-out options and being able to watch TV shows and play online games on the first day in a new home is critical. Of course, that means you get the time you need to hunt for the missing sheets and coffeepot.

Tips On Feeling Safe And Secure At Home
(NAPS)—If you are like most homeowners, you know that few things are as satisfying as the sense of security that comes from being in your own home. For many, that’s a feeling that comes from being able to close the door, turn the key and relax, knowing the dangers of the world are locked away. A recent survey found that 70 percent of American homeowners say having deadbolt locks on their entry doors makes them feel safe and secure when at home. The survey also revealed that 44 percent of respondents feel that having more than one deadbolt lock on their entry doors makes them feel safe and secure when at home. Kwikset, the leader in smart, simple security, conducted the Harris Interactive survey to learn more about what makes Americans feel safe in their homes. Tips to Feel Safe and Secure at Home To help you and your family feel safer in your home, here are five simple safety tips from the experts at Kwikset: 1. Not all locks are created equal. Make sure you have quality locks. For maximum safety, choose high-security locks. For example, look for locks that feature BumpGuard technology, such as the Kwikset SmartKey Deadbolt, which protects against drilling and picking. 2. Light it up! Illuminate your home, inside and out. A timer or solar-powered light on the front, back and side of a house makes it more difficult for burglars to hide and gives the impression that someone is home. Install a lamp or TV timer when away so it appears someone is inside after dark. 3. Mow your lawn already! Overgrown grass is a sure sign that no one is home. Don’t give the impression that your house has been left vacant for an extended period of time. 4. Don’t brag about your vacation. Think twice before posting upcoming trips on Facebook or Twitter. According to a study out of the United Kingdom from Credit Sesame, approximately 78 percent of ex-burglars use Twitter, Foursquare and Facebook to single out empty homes. A good way to counter the technology used by the bad guys is to upgrade your own equipment. Using wireless technology like Kwikset Home Connect can protect your home by integrating a home automation system to monitor who enters and exits your home from your smartphone or Internet connection. 5. Remember to protect your spare key and your goods. Leave one with someone you trust. Never leave it on the property. Keyless entry locks with electronic keypads are another option to consider.

Involving Kids In Cleaning: A Key To Future Success

Ask your kids to spot areas that are unclean and you may be surprised how many they find! • Implement a rewards system: Give kids specific cleaning goals and reward them once the goals are completed. Using visuals such as a chore chart is a great way to keep kids on task, remind them to clean and to keep track of how often they are doing it. Give your kids stickers to place on the chart when they’ve completed a task and, if you like, provide modest rewards for collecting a specified number of stickers. While the real reward is a clean home, you can also offer anything from a family movie night to a reasonable allowance. • Tailor tasks to specific age groups: Give younger children simpler, one-step tasks like dusting or picking toys up off the floor. Save the more complex jobs, such as vacuuming, scrubbing and disinfecting, for older kids. • Take time to educate: It’s never too early to educate your kids about germs! Help them identify and then tackle bacteria-rich surfaces, like door handles, kitchen sinks, toilets and light switches. You can also teach them about household hygiene through other educational activities.

Simplify Your Life, Starting At Home (NAPS)—If your home is like many, there’s one room that just doesn’t work with the rest of the house. To help you fix that, HGTV designer Lisa LaPorta and Pfister offer four simple solutions that you can execute in a weekend or less. How To Have A New Home At The Old Address 1. Remove the clutter and organize your chaos. Too many pieces of furniture, accessories and small appliances create conflicting styles. That doesn’t mean you have to throw stuff out, however. You can still keep everything you own. Just don’t have everything you own out at once. Rotate your art and furniture with the seasons. Maximize your cabinet space with organizers and stackers. Put away appliances and utensils in your kitchen. Decorate with bowls of fruit and flowers. 2. Work with what you have. When picking colors and accessories, consider what you currently own and highlight the pieces you love. You can transform just about any room simply by rearranging the furniture and applying a fresh coat of paint. 3. Create your own design journal. Look through design books and magazines and tear out pictures of rooms you love and rooms you dislike. You should start to notice reoccurring preferences that can inspire you. 4. It’s time for new jewelry. Just like adding a new piece of jewelry to your wardrobe, accessorizing the bathroom or kitchen with a new faucet and hardware can make the room feel new. The old rules about having to match all your metals— faucets, drawer pulls, hinges, light fixtures—are gone, so get what fits your design personality. Changing out old fixtures can be a simple, quick and affordable weekend project (there’s no need to pull old piping out of the wall) with Pfister’s new Universal Tub and Shower upgrade kit. It is compatible with eight different valves from leading plumbing manufacturers, comes in multiple style and finish options, and includes a fivefunction showerhead and an all-metal tub spout. In addition, Pfister’s attractive new line of waterconserving faucets helps reduce water consumption, saving you money and making the house more attractive to eventual buyers.
