Schools In Bowmanville Heated With Electricity Rawmanville now has @li - electrically heated hom- | \ es. There are aiso 04 apare- ment suites, seven commer- cial buildings, three schools and a@ church that are entirely heat- e@ by electricity. In the nearby villages of Oro- mo and Newcastle there are 4# more all - electrically heat- ed single dwellings and. eight apartment suites heated by electricity. Manager George T. Van Brid- Ber, of Bowmanville Public Utilities Commission, in report- img the rapid growth of elec- fric home heating in that municipality said there had been a tremendous upsurge of interest in total electric living im recent months. In addition to the 111 completed and oc- gupied fully electric homes, he gaid, there are 12 more dwell- fmgs presently under construc- tion that are being all - elect- gically heated. Prospects are bright for many more total electric homes and apartment guites this year, judging from the interest and inquiries, Mr. Wan Bridger added, Besides the new homes that are being built to medallion all- electric heat standards, a num- ber of older homes have been eonverted to electric heating and indications are that many more will be changed over to this modern method of heating, Mr. Van Bridger said. WHREE ALL-ELECTRIC SCHOOLS Bowmanville was one of the 111; first municipalities in the pro- vince to have an all-electrically MGA, dines ccaniewe. aoe ae three schools in the town heat- awe ed entirely by electricity. Tea- chers and pupils are delighted with this form of heat because it is so flexible and comfort- able. The temperature in each classroom can be adjusted by thermostat in the room to. give proper heat distribution, espec- ially on those days when warm sunlight is shining in windows on one side of the school building and the other side is in the shade. Since electric heat 'is flameless and no oxygen is consumed by it the air .in the classrooms is fresher, he pointed out. A new church hall in Bow- manville has had all-electric heating installed. It.is St. Paul's United Church. In churches and schools, the in- troduction of total electric heat has eliminated much of the time, work and attention of caretakers compared with their work in dealing with conventional methods of heat- ing. Church officials have been delighted with the comfort, flex- ibility and economy of electric heating, especially in the cool- er Fall and Spring weather. Other buildings in Bowman- ville that are all - electrically heated include the municipal water pumping station, the sewage treatment plant - and the Bowmanville PUC office, also the four apartment suites above the P.U.C. office. Referring to the rapid in- crease in all electric heating, Mr, Van Bridger aaia the waacane far the srowing pnoD- ularity are comfort, safety, eleanliness and the very rea- sonable cost. The rate for all electric house heating has de- creased steadily and now own- ers of total electric homes in Bowmanville have a low rate of approximately one cent per kilowatt hour when hydro pow- er bills are paid within the discount period, he said. POPULAR IN ORONO, NEWCASTLE Manager Ernest Dent of. Oro- no Hydro said that the trend in new home heating in that village is to modern, all-elect- ric heat. Three new all - elect- ric dwellings were added this month, bringing the number in Orono now to 2 total elect- ric homes. Two older homes have been converted to all- electric heat. He also stated 'that there -are six apartment suites under construction that will.be all - electrically heated. In Newcastle, Manager Har- vey Britton reported a similar trend where new homes are being built with all - electric heat.
