Solar heat aids wood stove
"As consumers we are
programmed to waste energy
to add to the profit of the
▪ supplier" observes Tony
McQuail who Is teaching a
night school course on
Alternate Energy Sources at
Goderich Disti.14-1 Collegiate
Institute and F. Madill
Secondary School in
W inghant
"We are sold on wasting
energy to get quality of life
and then the products don't
deliver what is promised by
the advertising," comments
McQuail. ''Electricity to
provide heat is the most
inefficient and inappropriate
ttse of energy„ yet we are
inundated ' with ad-
vertisements that tell us it is
efficient, modern, clean and
inexpensive."
„Besides the consumption
of a resource that is non-
renewable, use of the elec-
tricity where it is inap-
propriate is becoming
costlier'," he adds.
The courses began Monday,
October ..4 in Goderich and on
Wednesday.. Topics such as
reducing our dependency on
energy consumption,
depletion of our supply,

The house built by Tony and Fran McQuail on their farm at RK 1 I.ucknow is heated by
passive solar heating due to the situation and construction design of the house. At present
the house is heated by the sun, without a collector such as solar panels, and a ther-
mostatically controlled wood stove as a back up unit. (Photo courtesy l.ucknow Sentinel)

At present their energy use
is t cry low in comparison to
the average family in Huron
or Bruce Counties. They burn
no heating oil; they have no
hydro or natural gas. They
use about 50 gallons of
kerosene a year for lighting
;ind cooking and` about four
cords of wood for heating and
cooking. Their bill for elec-
tricity. kerosene. 'batteries
,ind chain saw gas would
approach $•100 for the year.
Tony is quick to point out
that he is not trying to per-
suade anyone to adopt his
lifestyle. He does suggest
however that there are ways
which everyone can reduce
his -her •consunmption of
energy and resources without
lowering their quality of life.
Proper insulation of your
house. turning down ther-
mostats on sunny winter
days, using sunlight to read
by and turning off lights,
television and radios w -hen
there is no one in the room are
all ways of conserving energy
and reducing heat •ind
elect!:icity bills..
"Conservation is plugging
the holes in .your billfold,"
says Tony.
The course is designed to
provoke people to consider
systems that can. he used
which will present the
greatest number of options
for the future. Electric
baseboard heaters with
resistance coils offer no tither
option than an electric source
to heat the coils. Water
