GE 22-McHENRY Gliding glass aoors give room'see wall' Homeowners who never hid a light under a bushel may be doing something equally defeatist -- hiding a view behind a wall. Homes that are fortunate enough to have a view shouldn't require a trip out­ doors to see it. Where pos­ sible, the home should be opened up to surrounding scenery even if that means "removing" a wall. What may sound drastic is actually a simple and practical solution. In one seaside home, the transformation from closed wall to open view was ac­ complished by installing a three-panel glass patio door. There, a second-floor back bedroom faced a beach and private dock and over­ looked a magnificent bay. But the room's single win­ dow and a narrow, glass- pane door leading to a deck severely limited the view of this visual extravaganza. The original window and PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MARCH door also gave short shrift to other seaside benefits: sunlight, fresh air and cool breezes. The whole scene bright­ ened with installation of the gliding door, a low- maintenance Andersen Perma-Shield unit which answered the home's spe­ cific needs. The gliding door has vi­ nyl-clad sash and frames that don't need painting and will not pit, rust or corrode even when exposed to abrasive salt air. Double- pane insulating glass, tem­ pered for safety, cuts heat loss through the large glass areas and assures year- round comfort. 15, 1974 Home water fountains cool idea With the first signs of spring -- young Americans think of baseball, and with spring and summer sports The wide patio door gives the room a "see wall" with sparkling bayside views that light up the interior decor. The door also pro­ vides easy access outdoors to a comfortable awning- shaded "poop deck" over­ looking the waves. (to comes a steady stream of traffic around the kitchen sink. To serve the needs of your thirsty moppets, consider installation of an Elkay water cooler designed for home use. Featuring an all stainless steel cabinet, it can be installed on the pa­ tio or any convenient out­ side location where there's suitable overhead shelter. Fan-cooled unit has a capacity to serve 5 to 8 gal­ lons per hour of chilled drinking water. Freeze proof protection is avail­ able for installations where temperatures occasionally fall below freezing.
