TwoShakes In A Panel
Shakertown's double course shingle siding panel, Colonial II, comes in 8 ft. panels faced with genuine Western red cedar shingles.

Let There Be Light
A compact Sylvania floodlight which can use either 250w or 400w metal halide or high pressure sodium lamps is called the FloodKat. The compact fixture has an effective projected area of 1.8 sq. ft.
The floodlight has a smooth light distribution pattern with wide beam spread of up to 162o horizontal and l24o vertical. The precision optics designed into the unit's reflector result in maximum utilization of the lumens produced by the lamp.
It comes pre-wired with an adjustable bracket that allows for aiming, once the unit is mounted.

Precise Sprinkler
A short range impact sprinkler with a low 15 o wind resistant stream trajectory features a 7 /64" orifice, and a low precipitation rate to provide irrigation for slopes and tight soils by resisting runoff or puddling. A special short radius of throw allows the sprinkler to stay within smaller areas. The precision jet prevents side splash of water onto walkways and streets.
Equipped with hoods and seals to prevent grit and sand from entering the bearings, the sprinkler's plastic construction is corrosion resistant.
Solar Air Collector Panel
Multi-Structures Inc.'s Suntap A-83solar air collector panel features a selective surface coating that reportedly prevents wasteful reradiation. Requiring no central controls, each panel can be installed one at a time with ordinary household tools.
Blending naturally with existing windows on any south facing wall, the panel comes in 3'x 6' and 3' x 8' sizes. For active-system performance, optional ll5 v thermostatcontrolled blower module and teflon backdraft damper are available.
The product has a suggested retail price of $330.
Safety Signs Always Shine
Everglo self-luminous exit and life safety signs, visible in darkness as well as in light, are always on even though they employ no power or wiring. Their light sources never burn out, unlike electric linepowered or battery powered signs.
The high visibility luminous energy is continuously derived from an internal, low level tritiumphosphor interaction. Installation with screws and brackets reportedly requires no special skill-
