® SERRE Gass RRR § 5 He THE DALLAS POST — THURSDAY, MAY 7, 1964 Gold Medallion Award Stands for HOE Sow Qu 3 & ality Zz This Gold Medallion on a home signifies the best in modern living to quality-conscious home buyers. Homes builtto Gold Medallion standards are planned for modern living tomorrow as well as today. A real status symbol that more and more United States home buy- ers are recognizing is the Gold Me- dallion emblem on a house. It has status because buyers know the symbol stands for electrical quality. There is an actual Medallionem- blem. You will find only one for each house, but it may appear either on tHe house or in close prox- imity to it. For instance, theemblem may be embedded in the outside wall, the front step or front walk. It may be part of the front doorbell pushbutton, door knocker or in the illuminated house street number sign. More importantly from the own- er’s viewpoint however, is the signed Gold Medallion Home Cer- tificate which is also given to the Room Air Conditioners Give Much Comfort When you discover the incon- spicuous air conditioning units in many Gold Medallion Homes, give them an extra-loving pat! They are one of the electrical home appli- ances that make it possible for you to enjoy the myriad benefits of liv- ing in a total-electric home. Home air conditioning provides controlled coolness as a new dimen- sion of comfort made possible by electricity. And the public’s tremen- dous enthusiasm for it has brought recognition of how inadequately wired most homes were. This awareness is one reason why ‘Full Housepower”’ is one of the features of Medallion homes —the wiring system takes air conditioning loads in its stride. In these homes you will find that modern air conditioning does much more than just cool. It filters out dust, pollen, and other air impuri- ties. It removes excessive humidity on hot, humid days. It provides another means of circulating air, in addition to regular ventilating equipment. Two basic types of electrical cool- ing equipment are available for use in new Gold Medallion homes. You may choose either central cooling system equipment or room aircon- ditioners. The latter type is most likely to be a through-the-wall unit installed permanently, and in the most advantageous place, in an exterior wall. Like window types —which are not permanently installed and are more likely to be found in rental units or in existing houses — through-thewall room air condi- tioners have many special advant- ages in the new home. They will complement the use of electric base- board, electric ceiling cable; or wall panel electric heating to provide year-round comfort. Also, since each room air conditioner is indi- vidually controlled, you can cool only the areas you-want, when you want, and to the degree you want. This flexibility of control also re- duces operating cost. An FHA official stated, “Air con- ditioning has become such an im- portant part of modern living that in a few years’ time in‘many parts of the country the home without it will be considered obsolescent.” purchaser. This certificate, which owners should keep with the house deed, serves as additional evidence that the home has met God Medal- lion standards. It affirms that the house contains sufficient wiring to provide Full Housepower, that it also contains Light for Living, work-saving major electric appli- ances, and that it is heated elec- trically. FUN MONEY It is becoming easier to finance summer cabins, either by extend- ing the mortgage already in force on your home, or through some savings and loan groups. Well de- signed wood framed summer homes meet with banker favor.

In North, South, East or West, clean electricity is providing com- fort by wire in more and more homes and apartments, as well as in office buildings, churches an schools. : In 1956, only 350,000 house holds were enjoying the benefits of electric heating; today that num- ber has grown to more than 1.5 million. And while electric home heating was installed in only 29, of all new homes builtduring 1957, indications are that it will be in- stalled in 20%; — or one out of five — of all new homes being builtdur- ing 1964. Some of the fastest growth rates, according to a recent study, are in the colder North Central States. What about the future of electric heat? An unbiased study shows a projection of one-fifth of all U. S. homes, new and existing, heated electrically by 1980 and almost one-half by the year 2000.
