SUPPLEMENT TO McHENEY PLAINDEALER - PAGE 25 -WEDNESDAY, JULY 12,1978 Storm windows and doors stave off high costs and chilly blasts Aluminum storm windows aqfd doors and replacement windows are a great energy- saving idea these days. What with higher heating fuel costs, expected tax incen­ tives and memories of last winter's bitter cold, now may be as good a time as any to take that energy conserva­ tion step. Storm windows can cut heating bills 10 to 20 per cent, according to the National Bureau of Standards. At av­ erage 1977 fuel prices in a 6,000 degree day climate, s u c h a s C l e v e l a n d a n d Chicago, the investment in storm windows and doors can be recovered in five years, the NBS reported. That's based on current heat­ ing oil prices. The payback period could be as few as two to three years for electrically-heated * homes. And with President Car­ ter's proposed tax credits for home insulation the incentive is even greater. Under the Carter proposal, homeown­ ers would get a tax credit of 20 per cent of the first $2,000 spent on "approved" con s e r v a t i o n m e a s u r e s . Aluminum storm windows would fall under the "ap proved" conservation mea­ sures. When approved, the tax credits would be retroactive to the President's message. Therefore, it is not necessary to postpone installation until final passage of the legisla­ tion. Only about 21 million of the 75 million year-round, one family homes in the Un­ ited States have storm win­ dows on every windoW^re- ported the Census Bureau. The most widely-sold type of storm window is the "triple track" aluminum window that comes with screens that can be simply slid into place Roofing £iii<l<k for < l< > -it-yc niiN'llVrs Certain feed Corporation, leading manufacture! of building materials, has just published a pamphlet provid i r i g s i m p l e " h o w - t o " guidelines on applying as phalt rooting shingles lor the home craftsman or the pro­ fessional.

STORM WINDOWS, such a* these aluminum triple- traek kind with screens, can cut heating bills 10 to 20 per cent according to the National Bureau of Stan­ dards. Both storm sash and the screen each have their own tracks for self-storage. in the fall and spring. When shopping for win­ dows, try to see a full-size sample, if possible, and com­ p a r e t h e q u a l i t y o f t h e windows--particularly at the corners where joints should he neat, yet strong. Re­ m e m b e r , t h e h e a v i e r t h e frame and general construc­ tion, the stronger and more durable the window . Top quality windows also have thicker weatherstrip ping and heavier glass that weighs at least IK ounces per square foot? If your windows are loose and drafty--or hard to get up a n d d o w n -- c o n s i d e r r e ­ placement windows. They easily install in place of your old windows and cut down on air leaks. They are available with double-glazing that can take the place of storm win­ dows. A n e w t y p e o f h i g h l y efficient aluminum replace­ ment that is popular has a "thermal break" of special i n s u l a t i o n i n s i d e t h e aluminum to protect against energy loss and condensation through the aluminum frame. Aluminum windows usu­ ally are available in mill finish (plain), clear anodi/ed for added protection against pol lutants in the air, or painted.
