Keep your home’s heating system properly maintained and cleaned is the key to having it operating at maximum efficiency.

Expert maintenance tips

FILE PHOTO Homes & Design

to keep you warm in your home all winter long

Is your heating system ready to brave the long, harsh winter? As cold temperatures take hold all over the country, it’s important for homeowners to safeguard their homes from heating system breakdowns.

“It’s fairly simple to ensure your home is ready for the freezing months ahead,” said Mike Clear, vice president of operations for home warranty company American Home Shield, which has responded to more than two million service requests for heating system issues over the past five years.

“Paying attention to little things now can help you avoid problems down the road, like unexpected repair or replacement expenses or disruption to your family’s routine.”

Clear offers tips to help you maintain your heating system and keep your home warm this winter.

Schedule a maintenance check-up Each year, have your heating system serviced by a qualified professional. This will not only keep small issues from escalating into bigger, costlier problems, but it can also extend the life of your heating system. Once you begin using your heat regularly, check the system filter and inspect the exhaust vent for rust and wear at least once per month.

Routinely clean heating components Easy-to-reach heating system components, like air registers and radiators, should be kept clean and unobstructed. Put this on your weekly cleaning checklist to keep your unit from working harder than necessary.

Seal the leaks Keep warm air in and cold air out by making sure your doors and windows are properly caulked or have necessary weather stripping. Not only will this help you stay warm and comfortable, but it will reduce the stress on your heating system.

Consider a home warranty A home warranty, like those offered by American Home Shield, can help you control costs when covered components of your heating system or other covered items break down. Plus, with their network of professional contractors, you avoid the hassle of having to search yourself for a qualified technician to make repairs.

Check your water heater Inspect your water heater tank for leaks or corrosion, and flush it per the manufacturer’s instructions to eliminate sediment buildup. Test the pressure relief valve once a year to make sure it is working properly.

For more information and helpful homeowner advice, Replace your filters visit ahs.com/home-matters or learn how to protect your Be sure to regularly check your heating system’s home with #AHSWinterMaintenance tips through the air filters and replace them as necessary, or at the manufacturer’s suggested intervals. Clean filters can help American Home Shield Facebook, Pinterest and YouTube cut energy usage, extend the life of your unit and improve channels.

Four ways to tap into the Nordic home decor trend

FILE PHOTO Homes & Design

Solar powered fresh air skylights with energy efficient designer blinds in the kitchen can save valuable wall space for storage while providing natural light, passive ventilation and style. Solar powered skylights and blinds, along with installation costs, are eligible for a 30 percent federal tax credit.

Smart upgrades for the most-used rooms in your home Kitchens, bathrooms and bedrooms are typically the rooms in any home that get the most use, which could also be why homeowners, when surveyed, consistently cite those rooms as the ones they most want to renovate.

It makes perfect sense to upgrade the rooms where you spend the most time, but in high-traffic areas, you can’t afford to make changes just for the sake of cosmetics. You want improvements that can enhance your enjoyment of a room and its functionality.

Here are five smart improvements to make in the rooms users of Ranker. com voted as the most popular ones in their homes – kitchens, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms and game rooms.

Add natural light Most rooms in the home look better and are more functional in natural light, and more daylight can help reduce the need for artificial light.

What’s more, there’s no arguing the positive mental and physical health effects of natural light. Daylight stimulates the body to produce Vitamin D and boosts brain levels of serotonin, which is thought to be associated with positive moods.

Adding skylights is a practical, cost-effective and attractive way to bring more natural light into virtually any room. Remote-controlled, solarpowered fresh-air skylights from Velux America provide not just natural light, but passive ventilation, a real plus in kitchens and baths.

Adding solar powered blinds, in designer colors and patterns, increases energy efficiency while giving you total control over the amount of sunlight entering a room through the skylight.

In kitchens, Energy Star-qualified fresh air skylights increase natural light and ventilation without requiring any loss of wall space you could better use for cabinetry. In bathrooms, they provide the perfect combination of privacy and healthful natural light and ventilation.

If you already have older glass or plastic bubble skylights, you can upgrade to the latest solar powered models, plus solar blinds, and receive a 30 percent federal tax credit on the products as well as installation costs.

You can even bring more natural light into rooms or areas without direct roof access, like half-baths, closets and hallways, with Sun Tunnel tubular skylights. Visit www.whyskylights.com to learn more.

Add organization and storage Clutter and chaos not only make a room function less efficiently, it can impact your mood as well. Adding organization and storage to rooms where clutter typically collects – such as bedrooms, living rooms and game rooms – is an easy, cost-effective way to improve the function of the room and how you feel about spending time in it.

In bedrooms, maximize closet space by installing organization units. A variety of manufacturers offer ready-

made units you can install yourself.

Or, for a bit more investment, you can have a professional closet organizer custom-make a unit to fit your space and needs. In living rooms and game rooms, built-in shelving and cabinetry is a functional and beautiful way to improve organization.

Minimalist Nordic design is taking over the home décor scene in 2016. Scandinavianinspired design principles, featuring white, simple color schemes and use of natural materials, provide attractive options for creating a balanced, beautiful home.

The Nordic movement, which evokes the simple, minimalist homes of Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Iceland and Finland, is enjoying new popularity as Americans seek to balance work life with home life, and create spaces where they can unplug, unwind and relax.

Nearly 77 percent of homeowners reported neutral tones, such as those embraced by Nordic design, make a room feel more tranquil, according to a recent SherwinWilliams National Home Design and Color survey.

Here are some tips to steer your space clear of clutter and embrace the minimalist beauty of Nordic décor for a balanced and bright 2016.

Start with a clean slate Take a cue from colors inspired by natural, fine-textured stone. For example, Alabaster (SW 7008), Sherwin-Williams 2016 Color of the Year, is a natural, flattering white suited especially for a harmonious atmosphere in bedrooms, bathrooms, living rooms and kitchens.

Turn on the light As in Nordic countries, the winter season’s long, dark months create a craving for daylight and its positive impact on mood.

During these months, take advantage of the daylight you do have by letting window

•See nordic – Page 6

Improve ventilation Air flow is critical to the health of your home and everyone who lives in it.

Ventilation in kitchens and bathrooms carries away excess moisture that can cause mold and mildew, and creates a fresher, more healthful environment by exhausting stale indoor air.

Bathrooms should be equipped with exhaust fans, and kitchen hoods should vent to the exterior of your home whenever possible. You can further improve ventilation by installing Energy Star-qualified, solar-powered fresh-air skylights, like those made by Velux. Because these skylights open, they provide passive ventilation to allow stale indoor air to escape and admit fresh air. A sensor operates a motor to close the skylights automatically in case of rain.

Replace older, inefficient fixtures and appliances Fixtures and appliances are key elements of kitchens and bathrooms.

Older ones not only look dated and shabby, they can cost you money

Window film – a powerful defense for homeowners

Many Americans think they need to worry about skin protection only when they are outside. However, according to the International Window Film Association, the harmful UV rays that people are concerned about while outdoors can also penetrate into homes, with the possibility of causing damage.

Typical windows block as little as 25 percent of UV rays which, if left unchecked, can cause extensive damage to the skin, including premature aging, wrinkles and even skin cancer.

Additionally, the UV rays may accelerate the fading of furniture, flooring and other décor.

Fortunately, professionally installed window film may act as a powerful defense against these problems, by blocking up to 99 percent of the UV rays.

Installing window film can also have a positive affect on energy costs, because it can help regulate room temperatures, thus lowering energy bills during warm and, in some cases, even cold weather.

“Thousands of highly-trained dealers and installers across the United States stand ready to help consumers achieve a safer, more comfortable and energy efficient home,” said Darrell Smith, executive director of the association.

Professionally installed films look better longer and are usually more likely to perform to specifications for their warranted lives, or even longer, than those improperly installed, according to the association. Professional dealer/installers have the resources and recommendations from their window film manufacturers to use in assisting customers in selecting the correct film for the particular windows and also can specify the product benefits desired by that customer.

Whether you need window film for car windows, a building or for decorative or security reasons, this website is your guide to learning about window film and its many benefits.

Professional installers have experience and training which can help them to identify unique or unusual circumstances, which may affect either the installation or performance

bathroom a retreat for holistic living

Spoil yourself in luxury with your own at-home spa In holistic living, all things are interconnected, which means home design has a big influence on health and wellness. One room where every household member can benefit from the art of holistic living is the bathroom.

With some strategic upgrades to the decor, fixtures and appliances, it’s easy to transform a bland space into a grand oasis of relaxation within the home.

components of a well-rounded holistic space. You’ll know you are giving yourself and your family the best when you upgrade these items to high-quality organic or natural fabrics and materials.

Some in-demand upgrades to make your bathroom an upscale indulgence include heated flooring and towel warmers so you never need to experience a chill after a deep soak.

The power of color Studies show certain colors can enhance energy and mood, while others are known for their calming qualities.

For example, people go to a spa for rest and relaxation, and you’ll notice many are colored in blues, browns, greens or deep reds. You won’t traditionally find bright colors, which would be too energetic for a place of respite.

Relaxation you want to experience Take “me time” to a whole new level when you install the DTV+ advanced showering system developed by Kohler.

It has pre-programmed spa experiences that target well-being, relaxation and energy developed by Kohler’s Waters Spa, so you know you’re getting a true spa experience right at home.

The DTV+ has a touch screen interface allowing you to control and customize every feature. Plus, this shower is so digitally advanced it can

Soothing qualities you can hear Complete the holistic bathroom experience by adding relaxing music.

Pre-program your sound system with classical, Eastern, meditation or naturestyle music to help you escape the grind.

As you’re planning your bathroom redesign, install speakers to create a surround-sound experience, especially in the shower area. Set it up for wireless control, in case you decide you need to change what’s playing in the middle of your shower.

The DTV+ is intuitive and consistent with today’s popular digital devices, allowing you to interface with up to three devices, funneling your music through your shower.

because they use more electricity and water than newer, more efficient models.

Replacing old faucets, shower heads, dishwashers and washing machines with newer models that use less water can reduce your water bill and give kitchens and bathrooms a whole new look.

Energy Star-qualified appliances such as stoves, clothes dryers, refrigerators and washers also use less electricity than older appliances, so you can also lower your energy bills.

Freshen the foundations

Every room benefits from a good foundation, and that doesn’t just mean sturdy flooring. Wall color, flooring materials and trim are fundamental elements in any room. Simply repainting walls and woodwork can completely change the way any room looks. Or, if you like the colors you have, a fresh coat in the same color will make the room look brighter and newer. Replacing worn carpeting or dated tiles, or refinishing a hardwood floor is also great ways to improve the foundations of any room.

When the sun goes down, create the effects of daylight in your home décor.

Incorporate shiny and reflective elements, like a large beautiful mirror hung on the wall, to reflect your interior lighting and give the illusion of a more spacious atmosphere.

Use shiny metallic elements such as copper, the metal of the moment, in a living room lamp or for pendant lighting in a white kitchen. Hang paper lanterns in a bedroom to add movement and lighten up the space in a fun and interesting way.

Embrace natural tones Nordic design is all about using natural, live-well tones to create environments where we can feel serene. To achieve this look and feel, use earthy, natural materials, such as Carrera marble, to bring an element of sophistication to a countertop in a kitchen or bath.

Get sharp with geometrics and details Complex shapes, angles and patterns in vibrant colors are also present in Nordic décor. Use a boxy picture frame or multilevel open shelving units to offer symmetry and provide a focal point in your space.

In a home that celebrates simplicity, there’s always room for a bit of whimsy or a pop of color. Even small details can make a big statement – a zebra-striped pillow on a couch or bed, several multicolored candleholders lined up in a row on a dining room sideboard, or red-painted counter stools in a winter-white kitchen.

of a particular product in a given situation and might not otherwise be noticed.

The warranties offered on quality films installed by professional dealer installers usually cover costs of removal, costs of replacement film, and costs of reinstallation. Window films purchased elsewhere will likely only be covered for costs of replacement film in the event of a problem or product failure.

The International Window Film Association offers free, downloadable consumer information booklets on its

website at www.iwfa.com, detailing what window film can and cannot do.

The booklets cover a variety of topics such as cost-effectiveness, the impact of the suns rays on your home’s interior and in-depth study on window films many benefits. Across many climate zones, window film has been shown to be one of the most cost-effective energy saving solutions.

Ways to improve your home’s curb appeal You never get a second chance to make a first impression. This steadfast advice isn’t just for interviews and first dates – it’s also applicable to your home.

Whether it’s a potential buyer or simply a visitor, within seconds of seeing your home’s exterior, that first impression will be made. That’s why experts from homebuilders to real estate agents sing the praises of stellar curb appeal.

If you’re thinking of selling your home or just want to give it a facelift, here are ways you can increase your home’s curb appeal – Revamp the roof Your roof is an important element of the exterior design aesthetic. If a dingy old roof is killing your curb appeal, a style and color upgrade can breathe new life into your home’s facade.

The first step is to evaluate roofing options for style cohesion with your homes existing siding.

For a traditional look, try TAMKO’s Heritage shingle line with colors and tones that mimic what’s found in nature. Some styles are manufactured to resemble wood shake for a classic upscale look at a lower cost.

Visit www.tamko.com for facade inspiration.

Shake up shutters Don’t be tempted to ignore your shutters. Much like how jewelry adds the perfect finishing touch to an outfit, stylish shutters in attractive hues can pull your home’s entire front exterior look together.

Shutters provide a great opportunity to add a splash of color for a touch of personality to your home’s exterior without going overboard. Pull shutters down and clean them up with soap and water before adding a fresh coat of paint. Make sure to get enough paint so you can freshen your front door in the matching color as well for a coordinating look that can enhance curb appeal.

Pretty the patio Front patios should convey an inviting appearance that complements the entryway.

For dated and dirty concrete slabs, special paint can instantly provide an eye-catching focal point that looks like new.

For old or rotting wood surfaces, consider replacing that deck or patio surface with composite deck boards like Evergrain Composite Decking. This compressionmolded product creates the look of wood without painting or staining.

Finish beautifying patio spaces with a few extra touches that warm the area.

Depending on the space parameters, the
