Buying one appliance to do the job of a furnace and an air condi- tioner can save you money, accord- ing to the Edison Electric Institute, the national association of electric com- panies. Electric heat pumps can do both tasks because they exchange heat in- stead of creating it, like furnaces must do. That makes heat pumps more en- ergy efficient because it takes less en- ergy to transfer heat from inside to J Serving the Back Mountain 20% OFF ANEW CENTRAL | 20% OFF A FURNACE, BOILER or AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM | 0000000000000 000000c00000]|ececcsccscsscsccsssssscscse You'll get 20% off the price of a quality central § If inefficient heating equipment is wasting air conditioning system.

A SOUND INVESTMENT ownlights offer new styles A family room that magically changes from a large gallery for parties to an intimate space for an evening of coffee and conversation. A dining room that is easily trans- formed from a bright, informal, ex- tended family dinner setting to a warmly lit, romantic table for two. A master bedroom that can be open and airy, or cozy enough to read in bed while another alongside you sleeps peacefully and undisturbed. If these scenarios seem more fantasy than reality, think again! All of these moods and settings can be easily achieved and transformed according to your imme- diate needs, and need not be expensive or difficult to accomplish. According to lighting designers at Halo Lighting, it’s a matter of having the right lighting fixtures to allow yourself to create the magic. Lighting alone has the ability to create new environments with as little as the flick of a switch. Unlike furniture, carpeting, wall paper, or window treatments, light- ing can easily be turned on or off, dimmed, and even mixed with other light- ing sources in order to change the mood. And when you feel it may be time to change the furniture or wall paper, con- sider changing the lighting fixtures, or even just changing their trims. It’s easier and less costly, and can be just as dra- matic a move in changing the personality of your room. And even then, it can still be flexible to meet your immediate needs. Rules To Light By, Points of Light When creating your ceiling lighting plan, fixture positioning is important, as once a recessed fixture is installed it is not practical to reposition it. There are a few general interior lighting design rules Modern downlights can accurately light selected areas, and be adjusted for different room settings. to follow: 1) The closer a fixture is to a wall, the more texture it will reveal; 2) As the fixture is pulled away from the wall it will tend to wash out surface detail, pro- viding a more uniform appearance. Another concept to keep in mind is that “light creates space”. In. other words, a dark room seems small and void of character, but an area lit’ with key light or highlights, and ambient or fill light for the rest of the room, can create an intimate, cozy or private feel- ing within the existence of a much larger space. The “light creates space” concept holds value for reference points, attract- ing eyes to the clock at the end of the hallway lit with a recessed eyeball downlight, making it easier to navigate the house when you come home late at night. And subtly lit rooms whose win- dows face the street may give the im- pression that you're home, discourag- ing would be intruders. On the bright side of looking in from the outside, neighbors, friends or others will see your house alive with the clean, even light produced by the recessed downlights. With lighting control, no room in the house needs to exist for a single pur- pose. Control of a lighting system can be as simple as separate switches for different groups of lights in a room, and/ or it can mean dimmers for the greatest level of continuous adjustability.
