Tips And Tools For Your Spring Cleanup NAPS)—There’s good news for homeowners preparing for their first yard work of the season. Investing a little time and effort in selecting the right tools and techniques when it comes to your spring yard cleanup can make the process quicker, easier and greener. For starters, homeowners should be aware that advances in battery technology are making it possible for the performance of cordless tools to match that of their gas-powered counterparts. Thanks to a new wave of battery-powered tools, such as the OREGON 40V MAX* Cordless Tool System, homeowners no longer have to sacrifice power for convenience. And because these tools produce zero emissions, battery-powered tools boast a huge environmental benefit over gas-powered tools. To help make your cleanup easier—and greener—the experts at OREGON offer these tips: • Choose the right tools. For instance, batterypowered tools start instantly, making it easy to tackle any yard task as soon as spring is here. With battery-powered tools, you’ll be ready with a simple charge of the battery. • Clean up the yard. Remove leaves and winter debris from lawn and shrub planting areas before new growth starts. Inspect trees and shrubs for winter damage, then use a chain saw or pole saw to trim damaged limbs back to the nearest healthy bud. Lightweight, cordless chain saws and pole saws can be excellent tools for this kind of task. They’re also handy to have on hand for cleanup after spring storms. • Prune trees and shrubs at the right time for maximum leaf growth. Most shrubs and ground covers are best pruned in early spring, before they start to grow. A pole saw, such as OREGON’s new PS250, makes it easy to trim out-of-reach branches without the use of a ladder. • Keep grass trimmed to ward off weeds and summer drought. Cut lawns low and re-establish edges along shrub beds, walks and driveways in early spring. Allow your lawn to grow taller as it enters late spring or summer to improve drought stress. The convenience offered by battery-powered trimmers can help make it easier for homeowners to achieve a well-trimmed lawn. • Be a better neighbor. Compared to their gaspowered counterparts, cordless tools are low noise and quiet between cuts. And no gas means no pollutionproducing exhaust emissions. To learn more about battery-powered tools and see what products are available, visit www.OregonCordless. com. *Fully charged battery voltage measured without a workload is 40 volts. Nominal voltage is 36 or 37 depending on battery used.

Protecting Ash Trees From An Invasive Pest (NAPS)—There’s good news for homeowners who have ash trees on their property. There is a simple way to protect this valuable tree. In addition to creating a beautiful landscape, the benefit from a mature, healthy ash tree is about $217 a year in increased property value, air quality, cooling in summer, reduced heating costs and more, according to the National Tree Benefit Calculator. However, they can be vulnerable to what some consider the most devastating of all invasive insect tree pests of the last 20 years—the emerald ash borer (EAB), a beetle native to Asia that was introduced to North America in 2002. EAB larvae live under the bark of the ash tree and feed on the tree’s transport tissue, starving the tree of nutrients.
EAB has already destroyed tens of millions of trees. In fact, most trees with EAB die in a few short years after the onset of symptoms. Fortunately, one particular trunk injection treatment from Arborjet, administered by a professional applicator, will protect ash trees against EAB for up to two years, in many cases even if the trees are currently under attack. Professionally applied trunk injection treatments cost a fraction of what tree removal and replacement does, which can be as much as $1,000 per tree. Homeowners can look for a number of signs to identify EAB in ash trees, including a thinning canopy (upper layers of leaves), branches sprouting low on the trunk, bark that peels easily with lines appearing underneath, small D-shaped holes in the bark, and increased woodpecker damage. For more information, visit www.arborjet.com.

Helping To Make Baby’s Room Safe And Comfortable (NAPS)—When there’s a little one on the way, certain small steps can make a big difference. Here are a few hints on helping to keep the nursery safe and secure from industry expert Sally Morse: The crib: See to the slats. They should all be there, spaced no more than 2³/8 inches apart. The National Institutes of Health advises using a firm mattress in a safety-approved crib covered by a fitted sheet. Be sure that nothing covers the baby’s head and that the mattress support is securely attached to the headboard and footboard. Drop-sided cribs are no longer recommended. Toys: Keep them fun—and out of the crib. The American Academy of Pediatrics says nothing should go into the crib but the crib sheet and the baby. Toys should not have strings or cords that dangle or any parts small enough for a baby to swallow. High chair: Be sure it has restraining straps with buckles that are easy to fasten and unfasten independently of the tray, which should lock securely. The chair needs a wide base for stability. Playpen: Don’t mess with the mesh. Playpen mesh should be securely attached to the top rail and floor plate and have a small weave of less than 1⁄4 inch openings, with no tears or loose threads. The top rails should lock automatically when lifted for normal use.
Changing table: Parents and babies tend to spend a lot of time here. It should have safety straps to prevent falls, and easily accessible drawers or shelves so you don’t have to leave the baby unattended. Windows: Any above the first floor need guards with quickrelease features for emergencies. Locks that limit the opening size let you get ventilation. The windows should also provide a serene environment with soft incoming light. One way is with Silhouette window shadings or Duette honeycomb shades from Hunter Douglas. These treatments have two fabric layers so light is filtered and diffused to eliminate harsh glare and shadows. The shades can also dim the light for daytime naps. They come in dozens of colors to coordinate with the wall color or the trim. Whatever window fashion you have, make sure it doesn’t have accessible cords that young children can get entangled in. Hunter Douglas has many options that eliminate lift cords or substantially reduce access to them. The company’s LiteRise cordless system is available with a wide variety of product styles.

(NAPS)—Did you know that homes with automatically timed irrigation systems use about 50 percent more water outdoors than those without them? Your system could be wasting as much as 30,000 gallons of water each year if it is programmed incorrectly, a sprinkler head is pointed in the wrong direction, or you have a leak. Regular sprinkler maintenance could save as much as $120 annually on your water bills!

1. Check out the competition- Visiting currently for sale comps can help you compare them to your home.” At a minimum, you need to know what location they’re in and what curb appeal they have, be honest with whoever is at the property. Say you’re working with another real estate agent and confirm whether it would be OK to walk through. 2. Don’t pay for an appraisal- Though the buyer’s appraisal will be important, you don’t need to obtain a separate prior appraisal to price your home. Instead you should be able to rely on your real estate agent for the information you’ll need. 3. Don’t under price- Deliberately under pricing a home to try to attract more buyers is also risky! Buyers come in at an asking price because they guess or they’ve been told there is not another offer. Pricing $10,000 lower, you are betting that there may be more than one buyer bidding. Instead of your –hoped for bidding war, you might not receive any offers or you might get just one offer that’s equal to your artificially lowered asking price.

May/June, 2014 Geothermal Systems: An Alternative To Propane
(NAPS)—The recent spike in propane prices has consumers looking for alternative ways to condition a home. As a result, a growing number of homeowners are considering geothermal heating and cooling as that alternative—and for a number of good reasons. • Efficiency and savings Geothermal systems, which draw on the stored energy in the earth, are much more efficient than propane and offer savings in the range of 70 to 80 percent on a yearly basis. Plus, consumers are not left vulnerable to volatility in the fossil fuel market or delivery prices. • Increased convenience There’s no waiting for fuel deliveries or running out of fuel at an inconvenient time. Unlike other renewable technologies like solar or wind, geothermal heat pumps provide constant benefits regardless of outdoor conditions. • Life span of equipment
Support your local Realtor! Don’t forget to tell them you saw their ad in The Real Estate Guide!
Geothermal systems tend to have a longer life span than propane-fueled heating systems. It is estimated that furnaces that run off of propane have a life span of 15 to 20 years. Geothermal heat pumps, on the other hand, have been found to have a life span of roughly 25 years, while the underground piping system that accesses the underground energy can last more than 100 years before needing to be replaced. • Costs over time While the price and installation costs of a geothermal system are higher than those of a propane system, the yearly energy savings experienced with a geothermal system can allow a homeowner to recoup the additional installation costs spent within five to 10 years, on average.

Another advantage that geothermal offers over propane fuel is that a single geothermal system can provide a homeowner both heating and cooling. Some geothermal systems even have an option that provides homes with hot water. With this combination, homeowners can enjoy even more savings. In some cases, that means up to 70 percent savings on their monthly utility bills.
* Personalized Customer Service * Minimal Closing Costs * No Appraisal Fees * Competitive Rates
Plus, a 30 percent federal tax credit is available to homeowners who install a geothermal heating and cooling system.

Lawn Mower Tune-ups Are A Wise Investment (NAPS)—Investing 30 minutes on a spring tune-up for your lawn mower can pay dividends for years to come. Those who don’t perform this important basic maintenance before the weather turns warmer often end up putting their equipment at risk. The good news is that the engine experts at Briggs & Stratton are making it easier than ever before to get your lawn mower ready for spring—from tune-up kits to oil evacuation kits to a free oil recycling solution, you can keep your lawn mower running smoothly. An engine tune-up for your push mower takes only 30 minutes or less. Riding mower engines may require an oil filter or fuel filter, which could add five to 10 minutes to the job. A Spring Tune-up Is Key “Homeowners simply want their lawn mower to start when they need it for that first cut of spring and a simple tune-up can make the difference between a hassle-free start and frustrating trips for service,” said Synoilva Shaw with the Briggs & Stratton Engine Marketing department. “While the source of most starting problems is old gasoline—which goes stale in about 30 days—a tune-up can help extend the life of the mower engine and keep it running at peak performance.” Prepping A Push Mower A tune-up for a push mower engine can reduce engine emissions by as much as 30 percent and involves just four easy steps: 1. Changing the mower oil 2. Replacing the air filter 3. Replacing the spark plug 4. Adding fuel preservative to the gasoline. Step-by-step video instructions are available online at www.briggsandstratton.com. Tune-up Kits A basic push mower engine tune-up kit costs under $12.99 and includes an air filter, spark plug, bottle of oil and a pouch of fuel treatment and stabilizer. A tractor tune-up kit costs under $32.99 and includes the same as a push mower kit with the addition of a fuel and/or oil filter. The kits are available online at the company’s website or at authorized dealers and home improvement stores. Oil Evacuation Kits Two options are available for oil evacuation kits—one that removes oil only and another that removes both oil and fuel. These kits help eliminate the need for consumers to tip the mower to drain the oil during a tune-up, making it easier to change the oil and reducing the possibility of an oil spill in the garage or driveway. Oil evacuation kits cost between $23 and $31 and are available online at www.briggsand stratton.com or at authorized dealers and home improvement stores. Disposing Of Used Oil Participating Briggs & Stratton dealers nationwide make recycling oil easy and have recycled more than 200,000 gallons of used engine oil to date. Simply drop off your used

oil in a closed container and let your dealer take care of the rest. Look Before You Pump Certain gasoline blends should never be used in lawn mower engines and other small gas engines. Fuel blends containing more than 10 percent ethanol, like E15 or E85 gasoline, or gasoline containing other alcohol blends can damage small gas engines. Repairs required because of the use of these unapproved gasoline blends are not covered under the manufacturer’s engine warranty. Look for the “Look Before You Pump” warning logo on new models or find more information from the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute at www.opei.org.

An Electrical Safety Guide For The Outside (NAPS)—Warmer weather means more time spent outside for both children and adults. Whether your outdoor activity includes improvement projects around the home or fun and games in the backyard, you need to be aware of some electrical hazards that may occur. To help, the Electrical Safety Foundation International (ESFI) would like to share these tips. • It’s common knowledge that water and electricity don’t mix, but spring showers may increase your risk of electrical shock due to sudden rain or standing water. Do not use an electrical tool that is wet or close to water. • To further reduce your risk, install ground fault circuit interrupters (GFCIs) in your outdoor outlets and in the garage to help prevent electrocutions and electrical shock injuries. You can also purchase portable outdoor GFCIs for temporary use. • Next, check the product label or manual and use only electrical products, such as extension cords, that were intended for outdoor use. Also, be sure to use only equipment that displays a mark indicating that it has undergone testing by an independent laboratory
such as Underwriters Laboratories (UL), Intertek (ETL) or Canadian Standards Association (CSA). • Inspect your tools’ cords and plugs for damage. Any damaged products should not be used and instead should be taken to an authorized repair center or thrown away. As you work, remember to always hold power tools by the insulated gripping surface to avoid electrical shock. Lastly, if your work requires a generator, make sure your generator is properly grounded and well ventilated. Also, make sure you remind kids of these important safety tips: • If they see a downed power line, they should stay away from it and report it to an adult. • Do not play with toys, especially kites and remote control airplanes, or climb trees near power lines. • Go inside right away if they hear thunder or see lightning—do not seek shelter under trees. • Do not play around neighborhood electrical substations or boxes.

Get In The Zone (NAPS)—You may be better able to win the race for (storage) space with your closet, if you heed a few hints. Although everyone’s closet storage dilemmas vary, a systematic method of organizing your stuff can lead to the highest level of efficiency. Besides, when your closet is clutter free, your mornings can run more smoothly, giving you the right mind-set to tackle the day. • As you begin to sort through the contents of your closet, remember the 80/20 rule: You wear 20 percent of your clothes 80 percent of the time. The rest just takes up valuable, reachable space. • Arrange your collection by category, grouping shirts, pants, suits, dresses and so on. Depending on the nature of your ward- robe, you can also separate casual clothes from those you wear to work or on special occasions. • Add a center tower of shelving on each wall for frequently used items. It creates a place for folded things such as T-shirts, sweaters and denim. • Pants, shirts and dresses can be kept on hang rods, making them easier to access. • Upper storage shelving (above the highest hanging rod) can be for seasonal clothes you use less often as well as pieces you rarely use at all. • Personal and activity items such as your everyday watch, wedding ring, wallet, keys and phone can stay within arm’s reach on a waist-level shelf or drawer. • Shoes worn most often should be the easiest to reach. Keep special party shoes or rarely used running shoes on the floor or way up high. • When space in other areas of the home is tight, keep luggage and other items tucked away in your walk-in. These occasional items can be hidden away and pulled out when you need them. • Don’t underestimate the power of closet accessories. Closet systems, like those from Closet-Maid®, can be outfitted with drawers, doors, cubbies, jewelry trays and pullout rods, putting every last inch of space to work.

Tips On Organizing Your Closets Like A Pro (NAPS)—Any time of year can be the right time to give your closets the once-over. A well-organized closet space offers several benefits. For starters, you can save time when you can find the items you are looking for. That can also mean less stress and more time to enjoy with family and friends. To help, here are some tips from EasyClosets—an online provider of do-it-yourself custom organization systems for all areas of the home. • Closets can be easily overrun with clothes, shoes and jackets that you no longer wear or are out of season and are taking up valuable space. Rotating your wardrobe with the season and purging items keeps everything organized and gives your closet some space to breathe. • When it comes to the closet space itself, create dedicated areas for specific types of items so you will know where to find them—and where to put them away— every time. • Position shelves, hanging rods and drawers in a convenient location that makes it simple to get to items that are used frequently. • Then use your closet’s top shelves to store off-season or seldom-used items, including hats, luggage and extra bedding. • In the master bedroom closet, organize your belts, ties or scarves with pull-out racks that keep items separated and accessible. • In your kids’ closets, you can make it easier to keep things orderly with baskets and shelves placed within their reach. Wire baskets will let your little ones see what’s inside. Double up on hanging rods to maximize space and make clothing items more visible. As they grow, you can move or remove the adjustable rods. • To organize your entryway closet, create zones by dedicating baskets, hooks and shelves to each family member. Use them to store jackets, shoes, hats, bags, the dog’s leash and seasonal items. • If you want to get your closets organized right away, EasyClosets offers products that are custom made in one business day and shipped to your home. The company even has an intuitive online design tool to make space planning quick and easy for homeowners. Complimentary design service is also available, allowing customers to have an expert review their plan or create it for them. Upgrading to a custom closet can increase the quality and value of your home. Plus, you can save up to 50 percent by designing and installing the organizers yourself.
