The completed projects, according

cracked insulation are the cause of
much heat loss, so new jackets are
a sound investment.

Shields Of reflective material
placed behind radiators provide
better distribution of heat because
they throw radiant heat back into
room, which ordinarily is absorbed

As little as 30 drops of water
minute from leaky faucet can add
up to SO gallons of water that is
heated wastefully every month.
