PP&L solar house to be built here The first step was taken toward construction of an energy-efficient home when ground was broken for the project November 21 at ‘Pleasant View Estates’ near the Manheim-Mount Joy Interchange of Route 283 in Rapho Township. According to John J. Dobosh, PP&L Project Co- ordinator, ‘‘The house being built and owned by David G. Heisey, Inc., Elizabethtown, will incorporate the latest concepts in insulation and heating known today. We hope to bring the ideas before the public for their inspection and use in future home construction.” The two-story English tudor-style home will have three bedrooms, two and a half baths, living room, recreation room, dining room, kitchen and attached two car garage. The 2,000 square foot house will utilize a heat pump for the basic warm air heating system. Energy from solar panels will supplement the heat pump system and the domestic hot water heating system. The solar collectors will also act as a privacy screen for the patio area. The panels are manufactured by Enviropane, Inc. of Lancaster. The latest technology in insulation will be used with one inch tongue and groov- ed styrofoam exterior sheathing and full thick insulation in the walls. The attic will have 10 inches of fiber insulation blown in. Urethane foam will be used to seal cracks around doors and windows. Triple glazed windows will be installed instead of the standard double panel models which are much more common. A ventilation hear ex- changer will provide con- trolled amount of fresh air and recover heat from exhaust air in the virtually air-tight home. Ventilators will also be installed to provide outside combustion air to the base of the fireplace. A glass fireplace screen will be installed to eliminate the use of heated room air for combustion. Dobosh said that comple- tion is expected in early spring. Soon after that the home will be open to the public for inspection throughout the summer of 1976. The builder is cooper- ating with PP&L and will use this bicentennial year project as an example of how to conserve energy. ‘“Upon completion we will have an excellent example of an energy-efficient home for inspection by builders and prospective home buyers. Something to look at and see the latest developments in conserva- tion techniques for future American homeowners,’’ concluded Dobosh. Jr. High parents invited to DHS Parents of all eighth grade students at W. L Beahm Junior High School are being sent invitations to visit ‘Donegal High School during the month of Decem- ber for an orientation pro- gram to learn more about the high school curriculum and the activities program. Parents are urged to arrive at the high school at 11 .a.m., on the - day designated on the invitation for a briefing by administra- tors and counselors. After lunch in the high BA school cafeteria, they will be guided into regularly sche- duled afternoon classes. At the end of the day they will meet in small groups with counselors and ad- ministrators to review the program and have a ques- tion and answer session. November 26, 1975
