"When we built our new R-2000 home the only things we left out were the drafts" Chris & Gail Lazenby, R-2000 Homeowners, Stirling "I guess the best word to describe our old place was drafty. It was a great place. We loved it. But we could never keep it comfortable enough. "So when we decided to buy anew house, we decided to go R-2000. We checked into it and found that R-2000 would do two things. Cut down on energy costs, and make the place a lot more comfortable. "The double-glazed windows are great. The ground source heat pump gives us air condi- tioning in the summer, too. And the fireplace keeps the living room cozy. "Before we couldn't imagine what it would be like living without drafts. But at times it gets hard to remember what it was like living with them." For more information on R-2000 homes, simply mail in the coupon or call, toll free, 1-800-263-9000.
