It costs $500 to $1,000 to heat a typical Canadian house. But there are super energy-efficient homes coming on the market that. heat for $50 to $200,a year. They looklike other new'. houses. They have various layouts—bungalows, ranch - style, splits, townhouses... Nothing far out— and no far out prices, either. 0 They don't even use :special m • materials, or exotic technology. What they do,have are innovations in design and construction that have proven themselves through frigid Prairie winters. NEW SUPER ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOMES -TO SHOW YOU HOW It's -time other Canadians shared these secrets. That's why the Government of Canada is supporting the construction of new. super energy-efficient homes as part of the National Energy Program.. Builders will construct some in every province. Even those Canadians who aren't in the market for a new home can use some of these innovations in their present homes. But the super homes are for sale, too. They're meant for living, not just show. THE OPEN SECRETS OFA SUPER ENERGY-EFFICfENT HOME The four major items that make -a home super energy-efficient may add up to $6,000 or. 5 to 10% to the construction cost of a new home. But that's an investment which pays for itself in lower fuel bills, keeps on paying dividends for years to come and adds to the resale value of the home. MOST WINDOWS FACE SOUTH AND ARE ENERGY -CONSERVING The house is oriented to the sun with quality double -glazed windows facing south to: soak up free solar energy. Fewer windows face north and these may be triple -glazed to minimize heat loss. NOW, WHO NEEDSA• BIG HEATING SYSTEM? To completethe energgy-conserving. features of these houses, they are equipped with automatic set -back thermostats and the most efficientof appliances and heating e9uipment. The heating system is miniature both in size and consumption, matching the space heating demands of the house. The water heater and hot , water pipes are well insulated, and water temperatures are readily controlled. The major appliances all have low Energuide consumption ratings, and in some cases waste heat is captured and recirculated where it is needed. Efficient fluorescent lights are used wherever possible rather than • . incandescent bulbs. 0 THICK WALLS—VP TOi AFOOT (30 cm) THICK -AND FULL. OF INSULATION Insulation; And more insulation. That's one of the big secrets. The super energy-efficient house has two to three times more insulation than the average new home, • - WHAT YOU'LL GET Super Energy- Most Other Efficient Home -New Homes ii81 _OD.

The attic is piled high with the stuff, and there's even insulation in the doors, making them RSI/"1.1 or better, - instead of the normal RSI/.35. You, can't see super -insulation, but it's there, silently saving you money. IT'S AIRTIGHT BUT. HEALTHY— WITH FRESH AIR • .J The entire house is wrapped (on the inside) with an airtight vapour barrier to reduce excessive rates of air change, to keep out ° drafts, and to keep household moisture from entering the walls. -The vapour barrier is carefully overlapped and caulked at all joints. -- even behind electrical boxes. Every joint and crack is completely sealed. Doors and windows are weather-stripped and super- tight, Air -lock vestibules reduce drafts • when doors are open, in fact, the house is so airtight that \ mechanical ventilationMay have to be provided. But even here, a unique air-to-air heat exchanger developed just for this purpose, or a smaii heat pump, saves energy by transferring heat from the outgoing air to the incoming fresh air. Ventilation is efficient and controlled — not wasteful and haphazard. BUY A SUPER ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOME—OR JUST LEARN FROM ONE 1f you're in the market for anew home, here's what to do: • - Some super energy-efficient homes may be built in your community within the next year or so. Buy one, .if you can. They'll be bargains. When looking at any new house ask for the. features that make a home super- energy- efficient. Even if you're not in the market for a new house you can still save energy and money in your resent home. Here's where the .'
