Advertorial Open 7 Days a Week We Specialize in Organic Compost Mixes For Better Lawns & Gardens The newest magnetized sink will keep you organized (NC)--The next time you go shopping for a beautiful kitchen sink, be sure to ask for a demonstration of the newest magnetic kind. Gleaming high quality stainless steel will likely catch your eye anyway, but wait until you see this shimmering arrival in the Elkay Gourmet Sink line. The innovation trademarked as the "e-dock sink system" features a magnetic device built right into the stainless steel. Once installed, the functionality of this kitchen sink increases exponentially. The magnetic properties allow you to affix a range of accessories to the inside walls of the bowl, immediately clearing the clutter off the bottom and off your surrounding countertop. If, for example, your soap, sponge and scrub brushes are usually placed nearby for washing needs, now they can be accommodated with holders in the sink. These e-dock sink accessories are also imbedded with magnets so they adhere to the sides and are moveable when required. Take a look for it the next time you're browsing in your favourite home décor shops. "Recent studies have shown us that homeowners spend anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours a day on average at the kitchen sink either washing up dishes or preparing food," says John Pearce, at Novanni Stainless, a leading name in residential and commercial sinks. "Therefore, any improvement to the efficiency of the tasks will return valuable time for relaxation or other pursuits." Now with a wide variety of e-dock accessories, the kitchen sink can become a novel experience, he says. Elkay options include a sponge caddy, shelf, utensil cup, hook, and disposer stopper. Pearce also points out that while each holder has a nonslip magnet, it is easily removed for cleaning--and all the accessories are dishwasher safe. As importantly, the chic look of the holder is designed to blend beautifully with the gleaming finish of the sink. Eco-minded shoppers may like to know that last year, Novanni (novanni.ca) earned a CIPEC award for its operational eco-responsibility. Among other initiatives, the company conserves, recycles, and invests in renewable energy. The Canadian Program for Energy Conservation is a federal governmentindustry partnership mandated to promote energyefficient, industrial practices.

Here are four simple tips to save your family money while taking a more environmentally responsible approach: 1. Wash your clothes in cold water.This will help prolong the life of your clothes by keeping the delicate fibres intact while reducing colour fading and shrinkage. 2. Use an ultra-concentrated single-dose laundry detergent like Arm & Hammer Crystal Burst Power Paks, there is no added water and a singledose can tackle a large load. 3. Wash full loads where possible. Reducing the number of loads you do is more energy efficient and will save you money. 4. Give your dryer a break. With the warm weather upon us, save on energy costs by using a clothesline or if it's rainy, set-up a drying rack in the laundry room. 5. Upgrade to a high efficiency washer. Don't forget to use a high-efficiency detergent that is specially formulated to work in less water, making it better for the environment.
