Water consumption highlighted on World Plumbing Day March 11 marked each year To mark World Plumbing Day, the Canadian Institute of Plumbing & Heating (CIPH) is encouraging Canadians to acknowledge the role plumbers play in providing safe and sanitary access to water. Furthermore, on World Plumbing Day, CIPH encourages Canadians to think about their water consumption, and to consider the technological advances and innovations available to promote water conservation.

Celebrated each year on March 11, World Plumbing Day is an international event initiated by the World Plumbing Council that recognizes the important role plumbing plays in people’s health and safety.
Wasting water
A national survey conducted by CIPH to understand Canadians’ water consumption habits found that: • The majority of Canadians surveyed take 5-10 minute showers (49.5 per cent of men vs. 48 per cent of women). • One-third of Canadians keep the water running while brushing their teeth. • One-third of Canadians are using high-efficiency appliances. • Canada is split 50/50 on how conscious they are about efficiently using their washing machines (i.e. using cold water, only using with full loads).
Did you know?
Did you know that switching your shower head to a high-efficiency unit can save up to 200 litres of water during a 10-minute shower? Or that, for the average Canadian family, a high-efficiency toilet can save up to 20,000 litres of water a year? If you didn’t know the substantial savings that can be achieved through these simple water conservation tips, you’re not alone: many Canadians are unaware how much water and energy can be saved with simple changes to their plumbing.

Outdoor improvements that boost home value From fire pits to decks Whether home improvement projects are designed to improve the interior or exterior of a house, focusing on renovations that make the most financial sense can benefit homeowners in the long run. The right renovations can be assets if and when homeowners decide to sell their homes. So how does one get started? First and foremost, speak to a local real estate agent who is knowledgeable about trends in the community. While a swimming pool may be something coveted in one area, it may impede sales in another. It also helps to study generalized trends and data from various home improvement industry analysts to guide upcoming projects. The following outdoor projects are just a few renovations that tend to add value. • Fire pit: A fire pit is a great place to gather most months of the year.
Bob Vila and CBS news report that a fire pit realizes a 78 per cent return on investment, or ROI. • Outdoor kitchen: Many buyers are looking to utilize their yards as an extension of interior living areas. Cooking, dining and even watching TV outdoors is increasingly popular. Outdoor living areas can be custom designed and built. In addition, prefabricated modular units that require a much smaller commitment of time and money are available. • Patio: Homeowners who do not already have a patio will find that adding one can increase a home’s value. Patios help a home look neat, add useable space and may help a home to sell quickly. The experts at Space Wise, a division of Extra Space Storage, say that refinishing, repairing and building a new patio offers strong ROI.
FOR A BEAUTIFUL HOME g Now featurin
• Deck: A deck can be as valuable as patios. A deck is another outdoor space that can be used for entertaining, dining and more. Remodeling magazine’s 2018 “Cost vs. Value” report indicates that an $11,000 deck can add about $9,000 in resale value to the home, recouping around 82 per cent of the project’s costs. • Door update: Improve curb appeal with a new, high-end front door and garage doors. If that’s too expensive, a good cleaning and new coat of paint can make an old door look brand new. These easy fixes can improve a home’s look instantly. • New landscaping: The National Association of Realtors says an outdoor makeover that includes well-thought out landscaping can net 105 per cent ROI. Installing a walkway, adding stone planters, mulching and planting shrubs are ideas to consider.

Take action on radon in your home It’s easy to get home tested
Health Canada is warning homeowners about the risk of radon, the number one cause of lung cancer for non-smokers. All homes have some level of radon, the question is how much. In fact, based on current housing stock statistics and Health Canada’s research, close to a million homes have high radon levels in the country. Radon is a radioactive gas that comes from uranium in the ground and can get into your home undetected through cracks and gaps in the floors, walls, windows and doors. Radon represents almost 50 per cent of a person’s lifetime radiation exposure and results in more than
3,200 deaths in Canada every year. Although public awareness of radon is growing, few people have actually tested their home for it. Recent research shows that despite over half of Canadians saying they know about radon, less than 10 per cent have done anything about it. Of those who tested their home and found high levels, only 29 per cent did something to reduce it, even though it increases their risk of lung cancer. Fortunately, radon is one health risk that is easily preventable. Since you can’t see, smell or taste it, the only way to know if radon has reached dangerous levels in your home is to test for it. Testing your home is easy. You
can purchase an inexpensive test kit or contact a certified professional to help you check the levels in your home. If your home’s radon level is high, it can be fixed at a reasonable cost. Techniques to lower radon levels are effective and can save lives. A radon mitigation system can be installed in less than a day and in most homes will reduce the radon level by up to 90 per cent for about the same cost as other common home repairs such as replacing the furnace or air conditioner. You can keep you and your family safe by testing the radon level in your home. Find a DIY test kit or professional at takeactiononradon.ca.

Keeping it natural Insurance Bureau of Canada report suggests ways to minimize climate change-related damage
An Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC) report released this past fall urges communities to consider natural (or “green”) infrastructure to limit their flood risk. IBC collaborated with the Intact Centre on Climate Adaptation (Intact Centre) and the International Institute for Sustainable Development (IISD) in an effort to help communities address their economic risk associated with climate change. The result is a report called Combatting Canada’s Rising Flood Costs: Natural infrastructure is an underutilized option. “Nature conservation and climate resilience go hand in hand,” said Craig Stewart, vice-president, federal affairs, IBC. “This report emphasizes that coastal and inland flood risk can be reduced by conserving and restoring natural infrastructure, such as wetlands and coastal marshes, and that the return on investment of natural infrastructure can at times exceed that of built infrastructure, such as dams and dikes. Nature can be our best friend in lowering the risk of exposed communities.” In 2016, in response to consumer needs, the property and casualty insurance industry began offering homeowners products that cover overland flooding. However, we are facing a decade-long transition as governments shift the financial risk of floods from taxpayers to homeowners and private insurers. Currently, for every dollar of losses borne by insurers in Canada, three to four dollars are absorbed by governments and home and business owners. “Property and casualty insurance payouts from extreme weather have more than doubled every five to 10 years since the 1980s,” said Stewart. “Coastal and inland flood risk is rising across the country as a result of extreme weather events driven by climate
change. Insurance companies are on the frontlines of helping Canadians cope with the impacts of the changing climate, paying out over $1.5 billion in the last 12 months alone.” Key Findings of the Report As a general rule, in order of preference, the most cost-effective means to mitigate flooding using natural infrastructure are to: 1. Retain what you have 2. Restore what you’ve lost and 3. Build what you must. The natural infrastructure implementation framework profiled in the report provides an improved due-diligence process for the assessment and implementation of natural infrastructure projects. It consists of the following key components: Watershed and climate risk assessment: It is critical to assess the broad range of climate change and land use impacts on watersheds to understand key risks facing communities today and in the future (e.g., floods, drought, water quality issues and habitat loss). Materiality assessment: Materiality assessments involving key community stakeholders are required to prioritize the most pertinent watershed challenges and to direct the focus of potential natural and engineered infrastructure solutions towards those that can generate “multiple wins.” Feasibility assessment: A feasibility analysis, which consists of assessing the technical, legal and regulatory, organizational, social and economic factors for implementing projects, can confirm which natural and/or built infrastructure projects best address the priority issues.

Time for a power line safety refresher BC Hydro offers tips to help stay safe The recent windstorm left many Gulf Islanders with downed trees and power lines on their property. While the extraordinary circumstances may have led to people abandoning normal safety precautions, BC Hydro encourages everyone to know the rules about safety when it comes to dealing with power lines and electricity. A 2017 survey commissioned by BC Hydro found that nearly three quarters of British Columbians do not know the safe distance they should maintain between their equipment and the power line, and almost half were unaware that branches touching electrical lines can conduct electricity. “Public safety is a responsibility we take very seriously at BC Hydro and we make every effort to educate the public about the hazards associated

with electricity,” said Hugo Shaw, BC Hydro’s senior vice president of safety, security and emergency management. “We want to remind the public that contact with a power line can cause severe injury or even death. To stay safe, a property owner and their equipment should be at least three metres — about a car length — from a power line at all times.” Keeping vegetation clear of power lines is an important step in staying safe, but BC Hydro’s research showed that 41 per cent were not aware that it was the property owner’s responsibility to keep vegetation on their property clear of power lines. BC Hydro reminds property owners that if any part of the tree or hedge is within three metres of a power line, call 1 800 BCHYDRO and a representative will assess the conditions and recommend an approach.

Public safety is a responsibility we take very seriously at BC Hydro
BC Hydro offers the following tips to help the public stay safe around power lines: • Locate the line. Look around and locate the power lines before beginning any work outdoors. Trees can conduct electricity, which means branches that touch power lines can make the tree a safety hazard.
• Stay back. Always maintain a safe distance from power lines: stay back at least three metres. That is about the length of a standard four-door car. • Be aware of the arc. Electricity can “arc” or jump from power lines across a gap to tools or ladders. • Call before you dig. About 12

Leave it to the pros Homeowners not often up to scratch when it comes to painting Few things can revitalize a home more readily than a fresh coat of paint. Thanks in part to the affordability of paint and its ease of application, painting is something that even novice do-it-yourselfers can typically handle. According to the marketing advice guru Brandon Gaille, it is estimated that residential interior paint only lasts around three years before it needs to be updated. Exterior paint can fade, chip and peel due to various environmental factors. As a result, many homes can likely use a fresh coat of paint in at least one room. As DIY-friendly as painting can be, when attempting to paint the interior or exterior of their homes, homeowners may learn that some painting projects are best left to the professionals. Painting requires skill, patience and a knowledge of how various paints — including finishes for particular applications — will hold up. Novice painters may do more harm than good by dripping paint on expensive carpeting or floors or fail to recognize the nuances that indicate a spot-on painting job. Professional painters have spent hours upon hours learning the ropes of what works — and what does not. Painters often understand that painstaking preparatory work is crucial to getting pristine finished results. Walls and ceilings must be properly repaired and prepared even before a base coat is applied. Professional painters also have an eye for details. And because professional painters make a business out of doing interior and exterior surfaces, they understand which techniques

can improve efficiency. That means a professional job can typically be completed much more quickly than a DIY project. Even though some people think they’ll save money by painting their own homes, that’s not necessarily true. Professionals already have all the equipment necessary, unlike novices who may need to make repeated and potentially costly trips to the hardware store for supplies. Plus, if mistakes happen, DIYers have to spend additional time and money fixing them. Safety can be a large motivator for turning painting over to a pro. Navigating exterior areas or tall interior ceilings can be challenging and may require scaffolding or tall ladders DIYers do not have. Risk of falls or other injuries increase with lack of experience. Painting can give a home a facelift, and oftentimes it is smart to turn the work over to professionals to ensure the job is done just right.

Selling your home … thinking about renovating?
H
omeowners choose renovation projects for a variety of reasons. Many improvements are made to increase functionality and comfort of a home, others are seen as worthwhile investments. Investments can add up to a higher resale value when the time comes to sell a home. Certain projects have a history of providing a greater return on homeowners’ investments than others. The following renovation tips add beauty to a home and generate good returns when selling: • Invest in your kitchen. Kitchen remodels are a safe bet when it comes to putting money into improving a home. Homeowners tend to spend a great deal of time in their kitchens, and a dated, poorly functioning kitchen can detract from the value of a home, even if the rest of the home is in good shape. The goal is to more than recoup between 60 and 120 percent of your kitchen remodel investment, especially if the kitchen matches up well with the rest of your home. Homeowners should know that a deluxe renovation may not be necessary, as relatively moderate improvements can create a whole new look for a kitchen. • Look to paint. One of the least expensive improvement materials, but one that has a significant impact, is paint. Neutral, modern colors can easily liven up any space. If you paint with low-VOC paint, you also can advertise an eco-friendly home, which is very desirable these days. • Put in another bathroom. Multiple bathrooms are an attractive selling point, particularly in older homes that may not have been equipped with more than one bathroom. Finding extra space for a bathroom can be tricky, but consider closets, areas under stairs or even taking some space away from another room. Popular home-improvement television channel HGTV advises that half-bathrooms require at least 18 square feet of space, while full baths need 30 to 35 square feet for a stand-up shower or bathtub. • Renovate the HVAC system. Aesthetic improvements aren’t the only ones that add value to a home. Many
B
home buyers are eager to purchase a home that has a new heating and cooling system, as buyers understand that furnaces and air conditioning units or heat pumps are substantial investments that can last for years. Other improvements, such as adding attic insulation or replacing older windows and doors with more energy efficient options, also are smart bets. • Add illumination to rooms. A dark home is a dreary home. Adding light can mean including more overhead and accent lighting. Under-cabinet task lighting is a nice touch. Inclusion of skylights and sun tubes can bring natural light into rooms that may not have south- or west-facing windows. • Put a deck addition outdoors. Outdoor living spaces have become more desirable, especially as the “staycation” has grown in popularity. Decks and patios can make backyards more appealing. The scope of your investment will depend on the size of the deck and design. Doing the work yourself can cut the cost of decks in half, but only if you have the specific tools or experience to tackle such a project. • Improve curb appeal. Adding attractive landscaping and freshening up the entryway to a home can add considerable value to your home, as buyers judge homes by their exteriors. Completely renovated interiors may never be seen if buyers pass up your home because of a less attractive exterior. Classy, subtle changes, like wellplaced shrubbery and a green lawn or a clean yard free of fallen branches that looks appealing can work wonders.
efore making improvements, homeowners should determine if a given project will provide a solid return on their investment. In some circumstances it is best to make no changes at all. If you are thinking of selling your home contact me for a free consultation.
