SATURDAY, JANUARY 14, 2017 ❚ SIUSLAW NEWS 999 ✦ PUBLIC NOTICE What To Look For When Entering The Housing Market (NAPSA)-The trend today is for decks that function as extensions of homes: comfortable, well-appointed outdoor rooms for eating, entertaining or simply un- winding. In fact, adding a deck can be a smart way to expand usable space without the time, expense or in- convenience of an interior remodel or addition. Here’s more great news. Now you can forgo standard wood decking for something longer lasting and easier to maintain: capped composite decking. If you haven’t looked at composite decking recently, you are in for a very pleasant surprise. Thanks to ongoing advancements in technology, composite boards now bear a striking resemblance to genuine hardwoods. Gone is the manufactured look of earlier generations. Instead, the latest offerings have an elegant, understated appearance more akin to premium indoor fl ooring options. For example, Fiberon Symmetry Decking uses a unique low-gloss formulation and micro-texturing process to create its signature matte fi nish. Adding to the “like-wood” appeal are natural, fl uid grain patterns with no visible repeats or easy-to-discern patterns. Plus, the Symmetry Decking colors are earthy and understated, well suited for any architecture or design preference. With the option of a hidden fastener system, the decking can be installed without visible screws or nail heads, giving you a deck surface as smooth and bare- foot friendly as your indoor fl oors (with no more nail pops). One of the main reasons people buy composite deck- ing is that it’s low maintenance. As with pre-fi nished fl ooring, it’s good to go right away. There’s no need to stain the decking after it’s installed and no reason you’ll ever have to sand, restain or refi nish the boards down the road-so you save time and money. When it comes to durability, composites are hard to beat. Symmetry Decking features a solid core fused to a patented cap layer called PermaTech. The compos- ite core prevents splintering, cracking, warping and rotting. The cap layer provides exceptional resistance to staining, fading, moisture and insect infestation-all common challenges with wood. What about sustainability? Is composite decking re- ally environmentally friendly? In a word, yes. No trees are ever felled to produce Fiberon decking. Instead, the company uses mainly recycled plastics and lumber mill scraps-enough to prevent 60,000 tons of waste from reaching landfi lls and incinerators each year. Sustain- able manufacturing processes capture 98.5 percent of waste materials. A closed-loop water system prevents water discharge. What’s more, composite decking lasts far longer than typical pressure-treated lumber. That Composite decking can give you natural wood beauty without all the work. means you won’t be dismantling or disposing of your deck anytime soon-and the greenest deck is the one you don’t have to replace. When it comes to building a beautiful, long-lasting, low-maintenance outdoor space, consider Fiberon capped composite decking. To learn more, visit www. fi berondecking.com. Dress up your deck Here are some quick tips for giving your deck a de- signer’s touch. Amp up the color: New seat cushions and pillows are an easy way to incorporate color and give your space an instant update. For a more cohesive look, in- corporate matching place mats, candleholders and other accessories. Change color schemes to suit the season, holiday or a specifi c event. When the temperatures start to dip, don’t head inside. Simply add some colorful, cozy throws-a beautiful and practical way to extend the decking season. Master multitasking: Storage boxes are excellent for keeping your colorful new accessories clean and dry. Look for sturdy ones with fl at tops and you’ll have instant side tables or extra seating for your next party. Light up the night: Don’t overlook lighting when planning your deck. Lighting adds ambiance and en- sures safer footing for you and your guests. Fiberon has options for rail posts, stair risers, even the edge of your deck. Here’s a bright idea for lighting up your dining area: String white lights around the edges or inside of your table’s umbrella. For a quick centerpiece, arrange candles of varying heights on a platter or tray. Add sea- sonal items such as pumpkins, gourds or pinecones for added interest. Always ensure lighting is safe for out- side use and never leave lit candles unattended.

Deadline for today’s paper: Monday by 3:00 PM Wednesday’s Graphic CYAN MAGENTA YELLOW BLACK Outdoor Living, Indoor Style (NAPSA)-According to a report by the National Association of Realtors, millennials are the largest generation in the housing market, but in compari- son to older generations, they’re delayed in pur- chasing their fi rst home. When they are ready to take the plunge, millenni- als are particularly inter- ested in smart technology. In fact, in 2015, 41 per- cent of millennials were aware of and interested in owning smart home prod- ucts-focusing primarily on connected security and monitoring devices, smart lighting, power and appli- ances. One vital compo- nent of a connected home is the garage-a key entry point to the household. More than just a place to park the car or store the lawn mower, the garage is an important part of the home, providing ac- cess, safety and security, and total home control for homeowners and their guests. As you or the fi rst- time homebuyers in your life look to purchase, con- sider the following: • Access: Millenni- als use their phones for more than just communi- cating-they use them to buy coffee, book exer- cise classes and directly pay friends and family. Through the free MyQ® app, the garage is just as easily accessible, letting homeowners open, close and monitor their garage door from anywhere in the world, at any time, from any internet-enabled smartphone, tablet or computer. • Safety and Secu- rity: For more than 70 percent of homeowners, the garage is the main ac- cess point to the home, which means when view- ing a potential home or during an offi cial inspec- tion, millennials should ensure the garage door opener functions securely 9B
