A Layman’s Guide<br />
to Home Design<br />
Article Provided by Debbie Titus - Home Planning Centre<br />
HOME DESIGN requires important considerations<br />
regarding functionality, efficiency and lifestyle.<br />
The Site must be considered when deciding on a house<br />
plan. Often home planners will put the largest/widest house<br />
allowed by zoning bylaws on your lot. Consider directionality,<br />
especially if using passive solar heating.<br />
Traffic routes should be kept short, reducing wasted space.<br />
Avoid routes requiring passage through rooms. Determine<br />
traffic patterns by tracing over the plan with a pencil, following<br />
your daily routines. Time, space and even maintenance<br />
can be saved with efficient design.<br />
Homes have three basic activity zones; sleeping, service and<br />
living areas. Try to keep them separate from each other.<br />
The main entry should lead guests directly to living areas.<br />
Consider visually separating the main entry from the living<br />
area for privacy. First impressions are good impressions.<br />
The Kitchen’s efficiency is optimized when the refrigerator,<br />
range and sink form a 12 to 20 foot “work triangle”. Kitchen<br />
and eating areas should be close.<br />
Living rooms are multi-functional, serving as recreational,<br />
study or occasional dining areas, and situated adjacent to<br />
the entrance and dining room; areas most frequented by<br />
guests.<br />
Bedroom sizes are determined considering bed types and<br />
additional furnishing; have two walls free from doors and<br />
windows to allow a flexible furniture layout.<br />
Bathrooms can be used for dressing, exercising and laundering.<br />
Full bathrooms should be accessible to all bedrooms<br />
and must be minimum 5’-0” x 7’-6” to accommodate all<br />
fixtures.<br />
Stairways, properly sized, average 14 to 16 risers and are at<br />
least 3’-2” wide.<br />
Planning aides to help you design your home can be as<br />
simple as graph paper and pencil or a more complicated<br />
home design computer software.<br />
Remember when choosing or designing your home plan,<br />
there is no perfect plan for everyone. The most important<br />
factor is incorporating your lifestyle into the plan.<br />

WINDOW REPLACEMENT SPECIALIST<br />
Article written by Randy Christenson - Owner Christenson Exteriors<br />
Why should I consider replacing my windows?<br />
If your windows are more than 15-20 years old, replacing<br />
them is one of the best ways to increase the energy<br />
efficiency and comfort of your home. Anywhere from 25<br />
to 30 % of your home’s energy costs are lost through the<br />
windows. As well, when the inside surface of the glass gets<br />
below 11 degrees Celsius a room will feel cold. Installing<br />
new energy-efficient windows can greatly decrease your<br />
heating costs and improve your comfort level in your<br />
home.<br />
My windows are only 20 years old, should I look at<br />
replacing them?<br />
Over time, the components of a window will suffer wear<br />
and tear. Seals lose their elasticity and their ability to seal<br />
moisture and cold air out. Hardware wears out and makes<br />
opening and closing the windows more difficult. With<br />
wood windows moisture can get into the wood causing<br />
the components to swell or shrink, making them difficult<br />
to open or close. Windows that are difficult to open or<br />
close or have condensation between the panes of glass<br />
could indicate that it is time to consider replacement<br />
windows.<br />
What are windows made of today?<br />
Window frames can be manufactured from many different<br />
types of materials. These range from hollow vinyl to composite<br />
vinyl, fibreglass, wood, wood-metal clad, vinyl-metal<br />
clad and even aluminum and steel frames.<br />
Many of window replacements these days are done with<br />
hollow vinyl frames. These windows balance energy efficiency,<br />
stability and rigidness. Composite vinyl frames offer<br />
an even more rigid frame and better energy efficiency.<br />
Fibreglass frames are among the strongest, most durable<br />
frames one can find. This allows for some configurations<br />
that other window types cannot provide.<br />
Wood metal clad and vinyl metal clad windows marry<br />
the performance of the vinyl or wood windows with the<br />
durability and strength of metal. European style “tilt-turn”<br />
windows are made of extruded vinyl and steel and are engineered<br />
to allow for some the most energy efficient, sturdy<br />
windows on the market. The size of operating windows<br />
that can be built with these windows is truly astounding.<br />
How do I know if my windows need replacing?<br />
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms described<br />
earlier, you should likely start researching your window<br />
replacement options. There is no one-size fits all, cookie-cutter<br />
solution to window replacements.<br />
The age and the style of the home, type of frame, glass &<br />
which Low E coatings all must be discussed. As well, you<br />
may be thinking of updating the look of your home with<br />
new siding or stucco. To find the right solution, all of these<br />
things need to be considered. The first step many people<br />
take is to do an internet search. Places like CMHC and the<br />
Efficient Windows Collaborative have loads of information.<br />
Next you might want to visit window contractor’s showroom<br />
to see what the different options look like. Then you<br />
may have someone come and do an assessment on your<br />
present windows.<br />

Carpet Cleaning<br />
Professional?<br />
Article provided by Art Franz<br />
Owner/Operator PERFORMANCE Carpet Cleaning Solutions<br />
It is a well-known fact that the carpet cleaning industry<br />
is rife with unprofessional-ism. So much so, that, in<br />
many circles, when the topic of carpet cleaning comes<br />
up, people will prefer to replace instead of clean just<br />
because their experience with carpet cleaners has far too<br />
often been negative. And far too often it’s because they<br />
don’t even know if their carpet is a candidate for cleaning<br />
because whenever they hired a cleaner in the past, the<br />
results were much less than satisfactory.<br />
There are several reasons for this. But it almost always<br />
comes down to a lack of professionalism on the part of the<br />
carpet cleaner. And primarily, this lack of professionalism<br />
is due to a lack of proper training.<br />
Carpet cleaners? Training? Didn’t think that was available?<br />
Yes, it is. We all know that training and certification<br />
in any industry, and especially the trades (yes, carpet<br />
cleaning is a trade), is a key aspect of what makes a<br />
professional or not. The primary institution in North<br />
America that trains carpet cleaners is the IICRC. This<br />
acronym stands for: Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and<br />
Restoration Certification. I will encourage everyone that’s<br />
looking for a carpet cleaner to check their website.<br />
How can you tell if your cleaner has been trained? Simple.<br />
Ask questions. Are you a professional? What makes you<br />
a professional? Do you have any formal training? Do you<br />
have a certificate from the institution that trained you?<br />
Does this institution actually exist? What equipment do<br />
you use? Why do you use that type of equipment? What<br />
procedures do you use that make you better than your<br />
competitors? Can you look at my carpet and give me an<br />
idea of what to expect? Do you offer any type of warranty?<br />
Do you carry insurance?<br />
So, when hiring a carpet cleaner (or anyone else for that<br />
matter), give the process some thought, and do your<br />
research. Ask as many questions as you can think of, and<br />
if the person on the phone can’t answer your questions<br />
to your satisfaction, look somewhere else. Remember,<br />
you are entrusting that firm with at least a portion of<br />
your investment. If you are happy with the person you’ve<br />
been using, keep using him or her. Not always, but quite<br />
often, you get what you pay for. Higher price does not<br />
always mean higher quality. But if you hire someone that<br />
is properly trained and certified, chances are, you will be<br />
pleasantly surprised with the outcome.<br />

My expertise in the local market<br />
means I can introduce you to homes<br />
that meet your criteria – and notify<br />
you immediately of brand new<br />
listings. I can advise you on what to<br />
look for when viewing a home, so you<br />
don’t make a catastrophic mistake,<br />
and I can arm you with in-depth details<br />
on every property you see. When<br />
you find a home you fall in love with,<br />
I know how to negotiate effectively<br />
so you get that property, at the best<br />
possible price. In fact, nothing pleases<br />
me more than saying, “The home is<br />
yours.”<br />
The Right Real Estate Agent for<br />
You<br />
Whether you’re buying or selling, it’s<br />
ultimately about realizing a dream. I<br />
understand how much the decision<br />
will mean to you. In fact, that’s one<br />
of the reasons I became a real estate<br />
agent – to help people buy or sell a<br />
home, while making the process easy<br />
and trouble-free. Clients often tell me<br />
how much they appreciate my expertise,<br />
my willingness to be there with<br />
them every step of the way, and my<br />
determination to get them the best<br />
deal. They also tell me I’m friendly and<br />
a pleasure to work with – which is<br />
quite a compliment!<br />

GET TO KNOW YOUR FAMILY DENTIST<br />
DR. DARREN ROMANOWSKI DMD, BSC<br />
I have been a local Dentist in Morinville for over 20 years<br />
and feel like part of the local community. Many of our<br />
patients make the short drive to Morinville from <strong>Edmonton</strong><br />
and St. Albert because they like the “small town feel”<br />
Morinville offers.<br />
I was born and raised in the area on our Family Farm. My<br />
young family is still involved in the healthy farm life and<br />
we are proud to make this area our home.<br />
20 years of Dentistry in the area has allowed us to grow<br />
our practice. I have a terrific Associate Dentist, Dr. Katie<br />
Wittig that has been with us for 4 years. We have a terrific<br />
staff of 10 support people to serve our busy clinic and are<br />
all from the surrounding area.<br />
Our office provides all aspects of Family Dentistry for<br />
young to old patients<br />
• Tooth Colored Fillings, Extractions, Cleanings, Consultations<br />
• Root Canals, Crowns, Bridges and Dentures<br />
• Veneers, Teeth Whitening and Cosmetic needs<br />
• Emergency services available to better serve the area.<br />

EDMONTON AND AREA BUSINESS DIRECTORY<br />
To Our Valued Readers and<br />
Advertisers<br />
Real Home Advice is proud to continue in <strong>2018</strong> the Business<br />
Service Directory for our readers in <strong>Edmonton</strong> and<br />
area. Our main objective continues to be providing current<br />
and reliable information to our readership in the areas of<br />
home trends, renovations, services, decoration and real estate.<br />
Our readership has come to rely on our updated and<br />
relevant editorials. The body of the magazine has evolved<br />
over the last few years. We focus on the Editorial content<br />
first and ad content second. This has allowed us to have<br />
exclusive and prominent ad spaces in the magazine and allows<br />
for better visibility. Our readers told us they still would<br />
like a directory of companies and services…. We listened…<br />
The directory allows our readers to easily access services or<br />
products in one area. We have selected the companies for<br />
the section to ensure our readers are getting good services<br />
and products. As with ALL our ad Partners in the magazine<br />
Big or Small, we like to partner with the ‘Best”<br />

The Vitamin C’s<br />
of Showering<br />
Talk about water quality and purity<br />
has expanded not only from<br />
consumption of clean drinking<br />
water, but of cleansing for<br />
the optimal functioning of the<br />
human body. The skin is a vital<br />
organ of the body that absorbs<br />
much through the pores, especially<br />
when they open in a tepid<br />
to hot shower.<br />
Tap water includes contamination<br />
of chlorine or chloramines,<br />
which are formed when chlorine<br />
is combined with ammonia as<br />
an inexpensive method of water<br />
disinfection. Other compounds<br />
include fluoride, heavy metals<br />
and medications that have found<br />
their way into our water system.<br />
A number of health issues may in<br />
part be attributed to exposure,<br />
which could include irritation to<br />
and drying skin, hair breakage,<br />
and eye irritation. Heavy metals<br />
and compounds may compromise<br />
the health of the skin surface,<br />
with higher exposure causing<br />
lung issues when inhaled as<br />
gas, attributing to wheezing or<br />
tightness of the chest.<br />
A number of companies are<br />
offering easy to install shower<br />
filters that are placed right at<br />
the shower mixture or tap, or<br />
on wall-mounted showerheads.<br />
Vitamin C shower filters are said<br />
to stop or reduce hair loss, itchy<br />
scalps and conditions such as<br />
eczema and asthma. Vitamin C<br />
shower filters have been tested<br />
to neutralize chlorine and chloramines<br />
as they pass through the<br />
filter.<br />
Other shower filters are manufactured<br />
with natural coconut<br />
shell carbon filters combined<br />
with copper and zinc, that further<br />
do the work of filtering out<br />
harmful chemicals, and bring<br />
greater balance to the PH of the<br />
water. Air quality is also improved<br />
as out-gassing of elements<br />
is reduced. An additional<br />
benefit is the softening of the<br />
water.<br />
If you are looking to enhance<br />
your family’s health experience,<br />
you may want to look into investing<br />
in shower filters for your<br />
bathrooms. The expense of the<br />
unit and periodic replacement of<br />
filters is well worth your health<br />
and that of your family.<br />
