HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Brussels Post, 1969-02-20, Page 6When this house was built it was
hard to imagine all the wonderful
ways in which electricity would
be, serving us today. That's why
the wiring in so many older
homes just isn't adequate for
today's needs.
There are many signs. Fuses
blowing. Lights dimming. Appli-
ances performing sluggishly.
Cluttered extension cords. Not
enough outlets.
So, if you're planning to mod-
ernize your home, think first of
the wiring. Have a qualified elec-
trical contractor check it. You'll
be surprised at how easily and
inexpensively it can be updated.
Or just ask your Hydro,
How much home are you missing
through outdated wiring?
