14 C THURSDAY. APRIL II. 1363 MLDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Improvements Can Raise Home Values Many homeowners are now enously planning to install a iwimming pool ui to finish the basement into a playroom or to convert the garage to an apartment or den this year just to add comfort and more space to the family s way of living. Such improvements mean better living, yet they may add thousands of dollars to the value of the home if they are wisely planned and con structed. Increasing the value of s: 4i f a I m m r ' m Awmm m mm. mm iiw whll mini j mm f & L wld h ff I mat 'A fl m z jimm HnnHMBy wiratw j aii j v v I "?j mm i count mmi ... pn , m-, , h-Mu c v less iu home can be done not only in cities where there is ready market available for re sale, but also on farms, in small towns and other rural areas. A purchaser almost al ways is willing to pay for add ed living comforts that are offered to him. A swimming pool may be a profitable investment in many instances, for It may make a home worth hundreds of dol lars more than the cost of the pool to assure profit for the far-sighted owner. A swimming pool has an added value in that it can be used for fire protection sim ply by keeping a water pump nearby for immediate use if needed. An LP-gas pump is excellent for such emergency because it can't be put out of action by fire which may burn incoming power lines. A favorite value - adding project is the conversion of a drab basement into an eye- appealing playroom where youngsters can have friendly gatherings. Not only does such a room add value to the home, it also keeps children at home where they can be supervised properly. A laundry room can be in cluded as part of the base ment conversion, screening it with a low-cost lattice work or other attractive cloak. Heat for the playroom and for the laundry room's clothes dryer is available simply by con necting onto the home's LP gas system providing fuel for the kitchen range, furnace and other appliances and equipment. Heating System Increases Dust You may postpone some of the home fix-up jobs this spring, but getting rid of the accumulation of winter's dust and dirt can't be avoided. One often-overlooked source of grime in the average home is the heating system, and there's really no need for such troubles. Modern healing units can aid materially In keeping your home and its furnishing free of tell - tale smudges, streaks and dust. Chora To Clean If you have the old-fashioned, cast iron radiators in your home, you know what a chore it is to clean them thoroughly. Even if you have a modem at tachment for your vacuum cleaner, it's practically impos sible to get all the collected dust and dirt out of the hidden recesses of the raditor. For this reason, as well as for good looks, new, smooth. surface units such as cohvec tor-radiators are being install ed in new homes. Most remod eling Jobs today also involve the replacement of the old fashioned heating unit with n newer, more attractive unit audi as the popular conveclor radiator. Convectors case the clean ing problem greatly, in addi tion to providing more com fortable , more economical heat. The convector cabinet Is easily dusted with a flick of the wrisl. and the front panel can easily be removed once a year if a thorough dusting of the interior is de sired. Convectors Convectors are noteworthy for the clean heat they de liver, since no dirt or dust laden air is circulated from the baacment, as In some heating systems. The convector circulates only air from within one room, and docs it In a manner that leaves no wall smudges or streaks. Convectors work on steam or hot water sys tems, which In themselves are quite clean. Take a look around your house now. How much of the dust and discoloration is lodg ed in or can be traced to the heating units? Solve this problem and you've materi ally reduced your cleaning chores the year '.round.
