for the future
no escaping one fact.
Energy is becoming more and
more of a precious commodity,"
said the manager. "In trying to
tackle this problem we kept
coming up with one answer. The
time to plan, build and retrofit
homes so that they use minimum
energy amounts is now.
"Accordingly, we feel this is
the best package that we could
put together to help homeowners
reduce their energy bills."
The program will involve two
sets of energy efficiency
standards, one for new homes
being built and one for
modifying existing homes.
Increased insulation levels for
both new and existing homes are
important parts of the standards.
The meticulous plugging of heat
leaks through weatherstripping
and caulking is also important.
Storm windows and storm doors,
or insulated glass and insulated
doors, are required because these
areas lose heat so easily.
The program also has energy
efficiency requirements for
several other areas of the home
including ducts, fireplaces,
hot-water pipes and electric
water heaters. In addition,
moisture barriers and good
ventilation are necessary parts of
the program.
Responsibility for conducting
the program falls on Ed
Blakemore, consumer service
representative, who has worked
closely with other Northwest
utilities in developing the new
standards.
Blakemore said there are a
number of incentives for
homeowners and builders to
participate in the program.
"Of course, home heating
costs will be much lower, but
also such homes will be tighter
and more quiet and comfortable
to live in plus the resale value of
an energy-efficient home should
be much higher. Moreover,
owners of such homes can feel
they are contributing to
conservation by living in a home
that is right for the times," he
said.
There are initial added
construction costs or added
retrofitting costs for homes to be
built or modified to meet the
program standards. However, the
savings in heating costs would
pay for the added costs within
three years in most cases, and as
energy costs go up in the coming
years, these savings will become
larger "like money in the bank,"
Blakemore said.
Blakemore said the PUD has
other services available to
homeowners that might help
them reduce their energy
consumption. It has specialists
available to study home plans to
determine heat losseS; has
written materials on energy
conservation, insulation values,
etc.; and has specialists available
to make personal visits to homes
for inspections and
recommendation on energy use.

all to celebrate both in the move
this Sunday and in the

Faith Lutheran Church look to
the good news of God's
redemptive action in Jesus Christ
as the event which creates new
meaning and purpose to life,
frees and enables us to find the
fulfillment of life that God
intends, equips us with identity
for our present mission, and
opens to the world a future and
a hope. The lordship of Jesus
Christ, Iris Word and sacramental
gifts are the focus of the church
from which both the fnnctioll

are derived.
