Richard G. Mills Richard G. Mills, 86, a resident of Florence passed away March 2, 2018. He was born in Richmond, Virginia on February 14, 1932 to the late Major Henry P. Mills and Sissie (Atkins) Mills.

Richard joined the U.S. Army at the age of 16 1/2 where he eventually trained at Fort Bragg with the 82nd Airborne Division. He served three tours during the Korean War. He was part of the 187th Infantry Regiment (101st Airborne Division at the time) known as the “Rakkasans”. He fought in some of the hardest fought battles including the battle of Chosin Reservoir, soldiers under General Douglas McArthur were known as the “Chosen Frozen” because of the extreme fighting the soldiers endured during the coldest winter on record. Richard traveled the world during his time in the Army as well as being assigned to the US Embassy in Venezuela. He was given an honorable discharge in 1963 after receiving the Bronze star for valor and the Purple Heart for injuries he received during his service.

In 1962 while on tour in Germany for the Army, Richard was raised a Master Mason and would later transfer to be a member of the Fremont Lodge #97, where he served as worshipful master on two occasions as well as membership in Eureka Lodge #66 and Silvercliff Lodge #38, AF&AM as well as serving with the Fremont Shrine Club (Al Kaly Shriners), an appendant body of the Masonic Lodge.

After being discharged in 1963 he went to work for the Colorado State Hospital for 3 years then transferred to the Colorado Department of Corrections. During his career there he earned a Master’s Degree in both Sociology and Behavioral Health. He eventually worked his way to the position of Warden and retired from the Women’s Division of the Colorado State Prison.

After Retirement he was on a team of three hired

by Bent County Commissioners to oversee all aspects of the Bent County Private Prison. He continued to work as a consultant for Bent County and Walsenburg Private Prisons until 2007.

Richard was an accomplished artist in wood working and stained glass. It seems that all of his artistic endeavors were prize winning quality.

Richard, simply known by his family as “Grandpa” was an honorable and kind hearted man. His love for life will be forever cherished.

Richard is survived by his wife, Mary Howard-Mills; children, Gary (Brenda) Howard, Vickie Howard and Kimberly Diethrich; special nephew, R.J.; nieces, Kim and Deidra; along with numerous grandchildren.

Cañon City High School student Camryn Pedzinski accepts the ‘Agent of Change’ award from Police Chief Daric Harvey on Wednesday.

CCHS student recognized by Cañon City Police Department Sara Knuth The Daily Record Cañon City High School freshman Camryn Pedzinski was at home scrolling through Snapchat when she saw something that looked a lot like bullying.

A video, shared through the social media app’s story function, showed CCHS students presenting a new student with a “gift” — razors, shaving cream and a note that said, “Do us all a favor and shave your legs.”

“I saw it, and it made me really mad,” Camryn said.

So, she took to social media herself, creating a Facebook post to stick up for the student. The incident also was brought to the attention of the school resource officer and the CCHS administration.

On Wednesday, the Cañon City Police Department recognized her efforts to step in to stop the bullying with the “Agent of Change” Award.

“I didn’t know who she was. She was a complete stranger,” Camryn said after the department’s annual awards ceremony. “I didn’t like how people took it, or what they did, so I just wanted to make it known that bullying isn’t OK, whatsoever.”

Police Chief Daric Harvey said Camryn’s actions showed courage, especially in a time when that doesn’t always happen.

“We see examples all over the nation where young kids getting bullied have no mechanism to get it to stop,” he said. “We have other people who are present that see it and do nothing about it — bystanders, instead of being upstanders and making a difference in their community. The police can’t be everywhere all at once.”

Camryn said she didn’t know the student personally — just that she was new to public school after spending most of her education in homeschooling. She only met her after the incident but said she made sure to tell the student that she would be there for her.

“I was like, ‘If anything ever happens again or you need someone to talk to or a friend, I’m always there for you,’” Camryn said, adding that she was “just letting her know that I wasn’t going to treat her the way other people had treated her.”

And while she said it was nice to accept the award Wednesday, Camryn said that wasn’t the reason she stood up for the student.

“I really just did it to stand up for her and for people to understand that it’s not OK because it’s not,” she said. “That was my point — to make it known that I wasn’t going to put up with it and that other people shouldn’t either.”

Prospect Heights Jail receives some TLC

Page 6 • CAÑON CITY SHOPPER • March 13, 2018

Carie Canterbury Daily Record

For the last 105 years, people have walked or driven past the vacant little stone jail on South Fourth Street, but few have gone inside until just a few years ago.

To ensure the Prospect Heights Jail at 1307 S. Fourth St. will stand for another 100 years, the Fremont County Historical Society has partnered with Mountain Masonry to fix its deteriorating foundation and enhance its stabilization. Crews began work Feb. 19 and plan to wrap up this week.

“This (jail) is part of the local mine history, the smelter history and the quarry history,” said Carol McNew, chair of the FCHS. “The bricks they used were probably from W.C. Catlin’s brickyard that was just down over the hill.”

There had been a settlement in the area as early as the 1880s when the Nonac Mine first opened, and the U.S. Smelting and Refining Co. was thriving at the turn of the century. Anton Adamic was an elder, property owner and leader of the community that revolved around work at the nearby coal mines and zinc smelter.

Since Cañon City was a “dry” community, the town of Prospect Heights was incorporated in 1905 as a “wet” community and eight saloons were open 24 hours. The three-room jail was built the next year to incarcerate the drunk and disorderly.

The saloons closed in 1909, the same year the Zinc Smelter closed, and the jail was shuttered 1913.

“This is a neat piece of history,” said Larry Linscott, a member of the FCHS and the manager of the jail project.

“This is like one of the jails Gene Autry and Roy Rogers would have in their movies. I always enjoyed watching them as a kid.”

Autry and Rogers probably never visited the Prospect Heights Jail, but McNew said cowboy actor Tom Mix was in the area making a movie when he got into trouble and ended up spending the night in the jail.

According to past Daily Record articles, the jail’s first prisoner was Ernest Sell, the man who built it. Sell had helped build many of the stone churches and buildings in the area, but he reportedly celebrated the completion of the jail “a little too enthusiastically.”

The Adamic family gave the jail and lot to the Historical Society in 1988,

Joe O’Neill of Mountain Masonry works on the stabilization project for the historic Prospect Heights Jail on Tuesday. and it was placed on the State Historical Register in 2003.

The FCHS opened the jail for public tours Saturday afternoons the past three summers and will continue this year.

Weather permitting, the jail will open for a kickoff from 1 to 4 p.m. May 5.

“People come in and say they’ve driven by this for years, and even looked in the windows, and they always wanted to see inside,” McNew said. “This has been a really fun thing to do, saving the building. I am really pleased.”

Michael Madone, the owner and operator of Mountain Masonry, and his crew plan to wrap up the project this week. Since the jail is a historic site, much thought goes into how to make the necessary repairs without compromising its historic value.

“There are some joints that were stable enough we didn’t have to touch, you want to be un-intrusive — if it’s not broken, you don’t want to try to fix it,” Madone said.

The structure’s original mortar likely was lime and sand, Madone said, which is much softer than what is used today.

“We try to match the stone that we’re putting the new joints in with,” he said.

“It’s stronger than what it would have been originally, so it has some strength and a lot more longevity.”

Madone, who also is an active member of the FCHS, has worked on a number of historic sites across Fremont County, including the Carnegie Library and the Florence Train Depot.

and 15 against the proposal. He said he wasn’t sure if it would be worth the effort to move forward with a harvest, which only would increase the number of licenses issued and only would be applicable to does, not bucks.

Meisner said archery hunting is death by bleeding, the animals do not die on impact. He said since they sometimes leave a property after being shot, many people don’t want to deal with them dying in their yards.

“Fifty-nine percent of the residents in the citizen survey said they were in favor of this, but they are not coming forward,” he said.

Citizens who are having a significant

problem with wildlife should contact Colorado Parks and Wildlife to learn about mitigation options, Meisner said.

Also during the meeting, the first reading of an ordinance amending sections in the municipal code regarding business dumpsters in residential zone districts was tabled to the April 4 General Government committee meeting. City staff will address concerns brought up by the public in a revised ordinance for council review.

As written, the proposed revisions would allow business dumpsters, up to 2 cubic yards in size, in residentiallyowned zones. Outside collection times, these dumpsters would have to be kept

“I like these projects, they are good for the soul,” he said.

The funds to rehabilitate the jail were raised by the FCHS through membership dues, the sale of books and calendars and donations. To learn more, visit www.fremontheritage.com/ fc-historical-society.

Council’s deer harvest proposal comes to a halt

Carie Canterbury Daily Record A proposed deer harvest within city limits to control deer herd populations will not move forward.

The proposal was discussed by the General Government committee in February, but no action was taken by the city council during Monday’s meeting.

Councilman Jim Meisner said citizens can legally hunt deer by archery on their private property during the appropriate hunt season, as long as they have a license.

Since February’s meeting, he has received 15 emails in favor of a harvest

in areas not visible from a public or private street, except for alleys.

It also would allow residents to obtain an exemption to the location requirements (not visible from any public or private right-of-way except alleys and not located in a manner to extend beyond the front facade of the principal structure) upon execution of an affirmation on forms provided by the city that the resident is not physically able to move the trash receptacle to and from the place of collection.

Seven individuals addressed the council, many of them asking the council to consider properties that don’t have sidewalks or alleyways.

ELECT SKIP MOREAU FOR

YOUR

SHERIFF

November 6, 2018 Election OPERATION CLEAN SWEEP

I FOUGHT FOR OUR COUNTRY IN VIETNAM AND I WILL FIGHT FOR YOU Albert Einstein’s definition of insanity is, “doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.”

Why do we continue to elect people that want the fancy title and not the responsibilities?

We elect the Sheriff, Prosecuting Attorney and other elected officials to work for the people.

Are they performing as you, the citizens of Fremont County, want them to perform? My personal option; I do not think so. Are we are electing people who are doing the same thing over and over and entrenched in the political system?

This November the people of Fremont County will have a chance to see change. Elect a leader that will work for you.

As your Sheriff of Fremont County, I will run your office in the most professional, proactive and proficient manner. I have the experience, training and background in management and law-enforcement to make this happen. I will never forget that the people are the reason I am Sheriff, hired to protect and serve, and you are my Boss.

I will run the agency the way the citizens of Fremont County want to see their Sheriff’s office ran. I will sit down with our District Attorney and demand that we seek the maximum sentence for any and all criminal activity and stop slapping their hands. As far as I am concerned, that puts illegal drugs and dealers on the top of my list. It is the people of our county that are taking a beating, and that must stop. This criminal behavior will not be tolerated in our county. As your Sheriff this will be a reality; nothing less.

Being your chief law enforcement officer in the county doesn't give me more authority, just more responsibility. I know there is a lot that I can and will do to make a difference. I will make Fremont County a safer and more united community and reaffirm the residents’ faith and trust in their Sheriff’s Department.

I ask that you, the Fremont County voters, put your trust in me to be your next Sheriff.

Your vote and support will make the change.

The best way to clean wood floors might surprise you (BPT) - Although most people envision their dream home with shiny wood floors, many consumers are unaware of the best way to care for them, according to a 2017 survey conducted by the National Wood Flooring Association.

“Not surprisingly, many homeowners are unsure of the best way to effectively and quickly clean hardwood floors.

Some believe mopping with a bucket of water and a cleaning solution is best while others occasionally sweep or vacuum.

Many cleaning methods can hurt rather than help a floor, for example, even a ‘damp’ string mop can leave excess water on a hardwood floor, and we know that water and wood don’t mix,” said Bona U.S. Director of Marketing Cate Vanegas.

The key findings in the online survey, conducted in October 2017

by Public Opinion Strategies, found that just 24 percent of consumers answered “sweeping” as the correct way to clean wood floors. This answer was closely followed by 19 percent who believe using a soap- or oil-based cleaner is best, and 12 percent who believe using water and vinegar is the best solution.

Just in time to open the doors and windows and welcome in spring, Bona has introduced its Premium Spray Mop for Hardwood Floors with a larger mop head for faster cleaning, and a full-size cleaning cartridge of cleaner. The new pressurized cartridge dispenses the perfect amount of solution designed to care for and sustain hardwood floors.

Lifestyle and design blogger Jennifer Rizzo (jenniferrizzo.

com) recently refinished her wood floors, and notes the simplicity firsthand: “After all the dust bunnies are cleared away, I use a Bona spray mop to clean my floors. It’s odorless, non-toxic and doesn’t leave any residue.

It also leaves my floors looking beautiful.”

With an estimated 25 million homes in the U.S. with wood floors, understanding how to clean them is essential to maintain and protect the investment.

Try the following tips to keep your hardwood floors looking beautiful.

Regularly: Dust/sweep. While using a broom can be effective, it also just pushes the dirt around, so using a microfiber mop or cloth is the best daily defense against scratches and surface damage.

Often: Dust and mop. After a quick spin around the floor to grab dust, use a microfiber pad mop and residue-free, neutral cleaner. Look for third-party certified cleaners that will be healthier for your floors and your family.

As needed: When scratches pop up or the finish looks dull, consider a recoat or refinish to keep floors durable and beautiful.

Ask an outside contractor for a water-based finish and dust containment system to ensure the job is VOC and toxin free.

Things to avoid: Water and vinegar, soap-based cleaners, wax or steam cleaners. Vinegar (remember, it’s an acid) and water will damage and dull the floor’s finish, while soap and wax leave residue. Steam cleaners put heat and excessive water on the floor, which can lead to cupping and long-term damage.

5 spring remodeling projects sure to brighten your home (BPT) - During the coldest months of the year, it’s hard not to think about the warmer months to come - and all that they hold. You may already be planning your next vacation or outdoor activities to host in your backyard this summer. Now is the time to brainstorm about your spring home remodeling projects that can add enjoyment and value to your humble abode.

Home remodeling projects on the rise As the U.S. economy continues to strengthen, home improvement project investment by homeowners has increased, according to the latest Residential Remodeling Index (RRI) study. As spring is a popular time for renovation projects, you may want to start checking out popular design trends, researching product choices and figuring out what you like and what works for your family.

Here are five projects that can help you reinvent your home this spring.

Besides making your home more livable and meeting your family’s needs, you will be investing in the real estate value of your property. * Take the mud out of the room. You don’t have to allow the mudroom to live up to its name.

Consider installing a Fiat Molded Stone mop service basin with a

multifunction hand shower to give your family a convenient and stylish spot to wash off boots and other bulky items. It’s also a great place to give your dog a bath or wash off dirty paws to ensure nothing is tracked into the house. * Shed a little (more) light in your foyer. Your foyer is the entry point into your home, and the right lighting solution can make this space all the more welcoming.

Newer LEDs or halogen light sources naturally generate a warmth that’s perfect for the entryway. Be sure to install a dimmer switch with your new lighting solution; it’s the best way to ensure your lights provide exactly the right ambiance for your entrance hall. * A masterful master bath.

Perhaps no room is more capable of providing luxurious relaxation than your bathroom. If yours isn’t living up to this billing, it may be time for some changes. The DXV Oak Hill bathroom collection offers a freestanding slipper tub for ultimate bathing comfort, along with a stylish high-efficiency toilet with a unique traditional farmhouse style. A coordinating high-back sink accented with a charming wall-mount faucet can finish off this bathroom remodel for ultimate

enjoyment and function. This may be just the spruce-up needed to enhance your personal space, while adding value to your home at the same time. * Make your outdoor space amazing. Once the weather turns warm, spending time outdoors will be top on your list. That makes now the perfect time to plan how you’ll use this outside space. A pergola is an easy-to-build addition that can give you a relaxing place to avoid the sun. Adding a flagstone seating area or creating a decorative border for a new fire pit might be perfect for your family. Try planting flowers for a pop of color, or invest more with new bushes or trees to round out your landscaping project. Plants like day lilies or hostas can survive

in almost any environment and are an easy, effective way to optimize your green space. * Shower power for all. For the all-purpose family bathroom, upgrading to a highly functional shower system will deliver results efficiently and enjoyably for all users. The American Standard Spectra+ shower system employs first-to-market technology that allows you to change the spray patterns simply by touching the outside ring of the showerhead for a customizable experience.

The Spectra+ eTouch system also includes a remote control that can be mounted to any surface, allowing anyone having trouble reaching the showerhead to enjoy the same personalized shower satisfaction.

Ideas to help you reap big rewards from your garden (BPT) - Get active outdoors with a hobby more satisfying than bingewatching another television series.

As a pastime, gardening can help you eat delicious, more flavorful food while transforming your patio or yard into a colorful hangout for butterflies and bees.

Many people don’t realize how easy it is to have a fresh supply of crisp veggies, fragrant herbs or fresh-grown flowers. Whether you have a balcony, rooftop or patio, gardening is a hobby that quite literally allows you to harvest big rewards.

One of the most exciting parts of gardening is deciding what to grow.

With thousands of plants to choose from - flowers, vegetables and herbs - a small pot of soil can be a canvas for creativity.

To find the most popular flowers and plants this year, we checked in with Ball Horticultural Company, a global leader on all things gardening, to see what the top trends are in 2018.

Strong and colorful When spring arrives, we all crave color and warmth to celebrate the end of winter. To get that wow factor - and get it fast - try planting flowers that grow and fill in quickly and thrive in extremes. The

Megawatt Begonia brings magnetic color even in shaded spaces. It’s also a low-maintenance option if you’re new to gardening. Likewise, the Echinacea Sombrero Sangrita is a perennial flower that returns each year with stunning red blossoms.

For foodies who want to show off Every chef knows the secret to tasty cooking is great ingredients.

For many gardeners, the truly magical combination is finding that edible veggie that looks as good as it tastes. Take 2 Combos combine two sweet pepper plants with a touch of heat and beautiful orange and yellow fruit. There’s also a combo of a slicer and cherry tomato perfect for small spaces and for snacking and cooking. Speaking of peppers, a new, attractive variety is Candy Cane Red Pepper. It has green fruit striping that ripens to red and offers up crisp, sweet flavors, much like a candy cane!

A refuge for bees, butterflies and beyond There are dozens of reasons people choose to garden: fresh food, interior and exterior decoration, relaxation, stress reduction and more. One emerging trend is that people want to make their garden a destination for pollinators like bees,

butterflies and hummingbirds. A few captivating flowers that attract these beautiful and helpful creatures are: * Lucky Star Pentas - Provides butterflies summer-long flower clusters in eye-catching colors * Copper Prince Ornamental Millet - This thriller makes a dramatic statement with foxtail plumes that birds feast upon * SuperBlue Lavender - A deeply

colorful and fragrant bee magnet Gardening helps you relax and decompress. What’s more, there is a huge amount of satisfaction involved in seeing your vegetables and flowers grow. Follow these trends and watch your plants blossom and beautify your home and yard. After all, we could all use a little more color in our lives.

The secret places pests are hiding in your home (BPT) - Pests can be hiding just about everywhere - whether you can see them or not. When you know where to look, there are preventative measures you can take to help avoid a pest infestation problem in your home.

Terminix shares details on the unexpected, “secret” places pests can be hiding.

Sinks and drains One often overlooked area is the kitchen sink. When not properly sanitized, drains can become a breeding ground for pests like cockroaches, drain beetles and fruit flies.

Cockroaches are one of the more common pests found in drains as they can access pipes when pushed up from sewers. Cockroaches survive in drains by feeding on available organic matter like grease, food waste and hair.

Other drain-breeding pests include drain flies, which resemble tiny moths, and fruit flies. Drain flies breed in residue found in drains.

Fruit flies are attracted to garbage residue found in drains, which can contain

damp, organic matter in which to lay eggs, and is a good food source to feed young larvae. Use smaller drain mesh and drain cleaner to create a less appealing environment for drain flies and fruit flies.

Ceiling light fixtures Bugs see UV lighting more clearly than humans, making ceiling light fixtures a common place to find

insects. Flies, beetles, cockroaches and wasps are attracted to the warmth and light, which, unfortunately for them, typically results in an early death.

Electrical outlets One of the most unexpected places pests hide is inside your electrical outlets. Ants, beetles and bed bugs have been known to hide in electrical outlets

and the voids behind the outlet plate. A pest control technician may use a dry residual dust product to reduce any bugs that could be residing there. If bed bugs are found in electrical outlets, it is likely there are more in other parts of the room or home, so call a professional to schedule a full home inspection.

The kitchen pantry Equally likely to welcome uninvited guests is your kitchen pantry and cupboards. Pantry pests can include moths, weevils, beetles and mice, all of which are attracted to food stored in the kitchen. Pantry pests can quickly contaminate batches of cooking and baking ingredients, such as flour, grains, spices and pricey nuts and dried fruits.

Thankfully, there are plenty of ways to keep them out of your cabinets, including examining all packaging for damage; avoiding storing food in original cardboard and paper packaging and instead choosing airtight containers with sealing lids; buying smaller quantities of products and using them before expiration; consistently organizing and cleaning your pantry; and throwing away all contaminated food. For even more information on secret places pests may be hiding in your home, go to Terminix.com.

Top trends to inspire your outdoor living

(BPT) - Outdoor living spaces rank first among special function rooms desired by consumers, according to the American Institute for Architects, and so homeowners are expected to be going all-in for the outdoors in 2018.

Trex Company, a maker of premium decking and railing, has gleaned insights from contractors, homeowners and industry experts to compile the following outdoor living trends that will dominate this year: Year-round enjoyment Among the biggest trends is a shift away from seasonality as consumers adopt more of a year-round mindset, no longer restricting outdoor living to spring and summer. Thanks to new high-performance materials and innovative design approaches, homeowners everywhere are transforming their outdoor spaces into multi-seasonal extensions of their homes. For example, Trex contractors have reported an uptick in requests for its RainEscape deck drainage system by clients looking to add multiseasonal living space underneath an elevated deck.

Minimal maintenance, maximum enjoyment Just because people are spending more time outdoors doesn’t mean they’re willing to put in extra hours for upkeep. In fact, high-maintenance materials like wood are seeing a decrease in demand as people are opting for offerings that deliver better

performance and sustainability.

Unlike wood, high-performance composites resist fading, staining, scratching and mold - and won’t rot, warp, crack or splinter. No sanding, staining or painting is required, and food and drink spills wash off easily with just soap and water.

Comfy cozy Among the hottest design influences right now is “hygge” (pronounced hoo-gah) - the Scandinavian term for a feeling of coziness and comfort. This year, outdoor spaces will beckon homeowners and their guests to relax and rejuvenate with hyggeinspired accents, from plush cushions and throws to protective pergolas, cozy warming features and outdoor lighting.

Residential goes commercial While railing matched to the decking remains popular, an increasing number of homeowners are taking advantage of the complementary decking and railing pairings afforded by new railing materials in modern, metal finishes, as well as sleek designs inspired by commercial architecture. More homeowners are inspired by outdoor spaces they find in commercial settings, such as hotels and urban rooftops, and want to replicate those looks in their homes. A prime example of this commercial-to-residential

trend is the growing popularity of horizontal railings such as rod rail - a sleek, industrial look that’s ideal for optimizing a panoramic view.

Hide and chic With the increased usage of outdoor living spaces comes higher demand for chic decor and privacy. An easy design trick that adds personal style and functionality, lattice panels are perfect for enhancing privacy and concealing storage areas or unsightly views. With styles ranging from romantic to deco, lattice panels can be integrated into any outdoor area and applied to structures such as arbors, trellises and gazebos, or used as decorative wainscoting or deck skirting.

Fun and games Kids are not the only ones who enjoy playing outside. Outdoor play

spaces for all ages are on the rise, including everything from swimming pools and embedded sandboxes to regulation cornhole courts, horseshoe pits and dedicated spaces for volleyball, badminton and bocce ball.

Beyond yard games, electronics manufacturers now offer televisions and entertainment systems specifically designed for the outdoors, taking into consideration differences in lighting and outdoor acoustics. Meanwhile, new storage options include durable wall-mounted television and entertainment centers that beautifully protect pricey electronics from the elements, while concealing all of the unsightly - and potentially unsafe cords and cables.

5 top trends for your kitchen in 2018 Page 16 • HOME AND GARDEN • March 13, 2018

(BPT) - It’s your home’s focal point. The site of some of your best moments and the base of operations for entertaining - it’s your kitchen, and no room in your home is more valuable. A magnificent kitchen defines a home, and bringing your kitchen to this level means capitalizing on today’s top trends.

Many of the trends that will define kitchens for the year appear first at KBIS, the kitchen and bath industry convention held every year in January. More than 600 brands attended this year’s event, and here are the five trends that stood out from the show and are sure to dictate kitchen styles for the rest of this year and beyond. * Appliances that can do it all.

As home chefs have become much more refined, the need for kitchen appliances capable of delivering to these expectations has increased.

Signature Kitchen Suite, the new-tothe-scene luxury brand, for example, debuted the first-of-its-kind pro-style range with built-in sous vide for the ultimate in precision cooking. The range is among the most versatile available with two extra-high burners that deliver 23,000 BTUs of cooking power and two ultra-low burners to maintain temperatures as low as 100 degrees. This appliance is also Wi-Fi enabled, which means you can monitor and control your kitchen wherever you are.

* Unique backsplashes. The tile backsplash still has plenty of staying power, but the latest trends are upping the wow factor of this kitchen mainstay. From mirrored glass and backlit onyx to decorative sculptures, the kitchen backsplash is becoming the statement piece of any kitchen and a unique way to express your own style and taste. * Matte black finishes. The standard appearance of kitchen fixtures is taking on a darker tone in 2018, as matte black finishes are flourishing in a big way. This elegant, luxe appliance finish complements

No one knows the country like we do.

any kitchen and is also designed to conceal fingerprints and smudges.

This smooth, low-gloss design option enhances any style kitchen, from modern to farmhouse, traditional to contemporary and every style in between. * Design elements everywhere.

Long a place of functional purity, the kitchen is getting a dramatically artistic makeover in 2018. Designers from one side of KBIS to the other were showcasing lavish kitchens complemented with unique patterns, angles and texture choices. You simply wanted to go out and touch

and savor every single detail they offered. The takeaway? It is possible to enjoy looking at your kitchen as much as you enjoy working in it. * Smarter kitchens. New Wi-Fi enabled appliances are helping people control their homes in new ways, allowing for greater convenience - either through the touch of a button on their smartphone or via voice commands through Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Want to preheat the oven before you head home from work?

Done! Need a fresh batch of ice before company arrives? You don’t even have to get up. Forget to turn on the dishwasher? No problem.

Choose a cycle and turn it on from virtually anywhere. Smart home leaders like LG have also teamed with food and recipe services such as Innit and SideChef to better assist home chefs with planning, shopping, preparing and cooking delicious meals.

Taking your kitchen to the next level The latest and greatest innovations for your kitchen were on display at KBIS, but bringing them home is up to you.

4 tips for protecting your home this season and beyond

(BPT) - Winter is in full swing and extremely cold temperatures continue to grip much of the U.S.; which mean hats, gloves and high home maintenance bills could be in your future. According to recent data from the Insurance

Information Institute, in 2016 severe winter weather cost homeowners more than $1.7 billion in property damages. While the seasonal shift can be a challenge for homeowners, taking these four steps today could ease home maintenance burdens

this season and all yearround.

1. Take a look at your windows Old windows - especially those with multiple panes of glass- are notorious for air leakage, allowing heat to escape the home while letting in cold air. If your home still feels drafty after you’ve turned the heat on, it may be time to upgrade to more energy-efficient windows.

Mark Montgomery, vice president of marketing for Ply Gem Windows, www.plygem. com, recommends that homeowners pay attention to insulating values and glass packages when selecting new windows for their home. “Manufacturers have made significant technology advancements over the years.

Thermal performance of windows can now achieve performance well beyond building code and Energy Star levels, significantly increasing energy efficiency.

Along those same lines, low-E glass coatings allow us to customize windows to specific regional climate conditions. So, if a home has old windows, replacing them with new energy efficient ones can make a significant difference in comfort, while also saving energy.”

One window example is the Premium Replacement Series from Ply Gem, which can be configured to meet

Energy Star requirements in all climate zones, and is available through a network of building product distributors.

2. Seal up any leaks Air leakage through holes, gaps, or cracks in the home’s structure is one of the biggest causes of home heating and cooling loss. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that reducing drafts could save homeowners from 10 to 20 percent on their annual energy costs.

To help control air leakage through gaps and cracks larger than two inches, such as where the wall sets on the subfloor or where pipes and wires go through wall plates, homeowners should use caulk or foam sealant materials.

For smaller cracks, typically found around windows and doors, weather stripping can help manage leaks. Steps taken to seal your home and save heat in the winter will also help improve indoor air conditioning flow during summer months.

3. Think about adding insulation In addition to sealing up any small leaks, it’s important to evaluate your home’s air tightness on a few fronts. For instance, consider adding materials such as fiberglass, cellulose or natural fibers to interior walls for enhanced insulation.

On the exterior, look at areas

like your home’s cladding and consider upgrading to an insulated vinyl siding system.

In addition to boosting curb appeal and minimizing ongoing maintenance, insulated vinyl siding, such as Mastic’s Structure Home Insulation System, efficiently reduces air leakage by providing continuous insulation along the entire exterior and covering wall studs that are left exposed by traditional wall coverage.

4. Keep your gutters clean As temperatures drop, check your gutters to ensure they are completely devoid of leaves and debris so that water can flow freely. If needed, have professional gutter protection installed, such as a gutter protection system that includes a continuous hanger, to reduce the possibilities of ice damming. If melting ice is unable to drain due to buildup, it could seep into the walls and ceilings of your home. Having an effective gutter system installed is a simple solution that can prevent the hassles of gutter cleaning and damage throughout the year.

By keeping these tips in mind, you’ll be able to better protect your home from Mother Nature’s ways this winter and throughout the remainder of the year.

Are hidden leaks damaging your home, boosting water bills and harming the environment?

(BPT) - Home water leaks waste 1 trillion gallons of water per year, and 10 percent of American homes have leaks that waste 90 gallons of water a day, according to the EPA. Fixing easily detectable leaks like dripping faucets and malfunctioning toilets can reduce water bills and water waste. But what do you do about the leaks you can’t see?

Hidden leaks can be dangerous.

Leaking pipes within walls can cause mold. Dripping faucets behind appliances can be a fire hazard. Leaking irrigation can cause significant lawn damage.

And that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

In a national study of more than 300 homes, intelligent-water industry leader Phyn found that 17 percent of homes have some type of leak. Of those leaks, half were from a broken toilet flapper. This type of common leak wastes 800 to 1,100 gallons of water each day!

Uncovering hidden links is important for your budget, your safety and to protect your property investment. Here are some ways to easily detect hidden leaks so you don’t have to worry: Proactive inspections: Look

where hidden leaks commonly occur before you see signs of a problem. Early detection could prevent costly damage. Even new homes need this approach, since human error during construction could lead to hidden leaks later.

Inspect systems: First check your irrigation system by walking around the yard, looking for signs of leaks, like puddles of water or depressions in the ground near sprinkler heads or lines.

Also, inspect around your water heater for moisture. Remember to watch the water meter, too. An

unexpected spike in a water bill could indicate a problem.

Technology: New advancements help detect leaks using intelligentwater technology, such as the Phyn Plus smart water assistant + shutoff. Installed right after the meter on the main water line, this device analyzes your home’s water use by measuring tiny changes in pressure at 240 times per second.

This allows the device to shut off the water automatically, so the owners can rest assured that they won’t come home to surprise water damage from a burst pipe.

Keep age in mind: Older homes have older pipes and systems that may be more prone to leaks, so it’s important to keep close attention on your home as it ages. That being said, new homes aren’t immune to water leaks.

You may have heard stories of new homeowners hanging a picture on their wall, only to find a puddle on the floor the next day right below where the nail had punctured a pipe. Pipes and soldering can fail at any time, whether your home is brand new or 100 years old.

Use the pros: When in doubt, hire a professional to get expert insight and workmanship.

For example, the Uponor Pro Squad is a group of authorized, intelligent-water specialists, dedicated to installing and servicing the Phyn Plus. Pro Squad members have been trained and certified to provide an expert installation experience, ensuring the quality and workability of the Phyn Plus device.

It’s important to detect hidden water leaks in your home. Learn more about water leaks and smart home technology at www.phyn. com.

6 ideas to recreate your kitchen (BPT) - As the hub of activity in a home, the kitchen serves many purposes: meal prep base, dining area, family gathering place, celebration zone, and entertainment center, to name a few. Does your high-use, heart-of-thehome kitchen meet the challenges and needs of your family life?

If not, then it’s time for a renovation.

A kitchen remodel can be inspired by lifestyle changes, the need for energy efficiency, upgrading of decades-old styling, or simply that you are ready for a change. The good news is that remodeling the most used room in your house not only improves the space itself, it increases the overall value of your home.

Research from Remodeling magazine shows homeowners who undergo a mid-range kitchen remodel can expect to recoup 81 percent of their spend upon selling their home. A major kitchen remodel will recoup 59 percent, according to the same study. With statistics like these, remodeling your kitchen has the potential to be good for you now and in the future.

So what are you waiting for? Start planning your kitchen remodeling project today. Here are six ideas, ranging from minor to major: * Replace your faucet. For the amount you use your kitchen faucet, functionality and ease-of-use should be top priorities - highlighted with stylish designs lines, of course. The Avery Selectronic hands-free pulldown kitchen faucet from American Standard features a three-function spray that can handle any kitchen challenge.

Plus, this high-arc touchless faucet

offers flexibility to suit user preference - simply switch to manual function for guests not familiar with touchless operation. * Paint your cabinets. If replacing your kitchen cabinets is not in the budget this year, repainting them is the next best thing. A fresh coat of paint can dramatically change the appearance of your kitchen. Select a paint that dries hard so it can stand up to wear and tear; choose a satin finish paint to hide imperfections in the cabinet surface. To complete the look, consider replacing the cabinet hardware. Pick the style that appeals most to you and remember knobs are more common on cabinets, handles on drawers. * Add a backsplash. Create an instant wow factor by enhancing the walls above the work areas of your kitchen. The use of varying shapes and materials can really showcase your creative side. Today’s homeowners are choosing larger sized subway tiles, introducing a bit more color to this traditionally neutral-colored area of the kitchen, experimenting with varying tile patterns, and choosing metallic and mirrored finishes. Extending the backsplash all the way to the ceiling, with the use of shelving instead of cabinets for storage, is a new trend gaining ground. Whatever your choice, a new backsplash can delight you every time you enter the kitchen. * Elevate your faucet. For homeowners who enjoy crafting delectable meals for family and friends, an upgrade to the GROHE Essence semi-pro faucet provides the perfect combination of modern functionality

and high style. It features convenient one-hand operation, full 360-degree sink mobility and two high-performance sprays. Plus, this high-arc faucet features a flexible silicone hose that can be easily replaced in a variety of rainbow colors for an instant kitchen “perk-up.” * Explore sink options. Whether it’s for food preparation, dish washing or bathing a small child, families depend on the kitchen sink for a lot of things.

The DXV Hillside stainless steel sink exhibits the rich character of popular farmhouse sink styling with a refined sophistication ideal for the modern kitchen. Made from 16-gauge stainless steel, its clean apron-front design makes it perfect for under-counter, flush countertop or above-counter custom installation. The result is a high-style sink that can meet any kitchen need. * Change out those cabinets. While repainting cabinets can change the look of your kitchen, replacing them

Keep an eye out on our Facebook pages for vendor lists and maps

can totally upgrade the room’s core style and functionality. Select new cabinets based on the current needs of your kitchen, considering accessories that can improve functionality. Think slow-close drawers and doors, turntable corner cabinets, pull-out trash can cabinets, plus many innovative storage features. The choice of design styles framed or frameless - will impact your kitchen’s look. Cabinets vary in price, depending on whether they are stock, semi-custom or custom. With kitchen cabinets accounting for up to 40 percent of a full kitchen remodeling budget, invest time in choosing the style and function that will make you love your new kitchen.

Whatever your level of kitchen remodeling, these upgrades are sure to make life easier and more enjoyable in a room that is the focal “living” room in any home. Go ahead and plan your renovations today - and experience the benefits for years to come.
