Boost Your Home's
ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Energy bills can be the one of the largest expenses you have as a homeowner. The good news is you can take action to lower those bills. A NARI remodeler can help you make smart decisions when it comes to making selections for appliances, windows, and insulation for your project. In addition to the best product selection, YOU can also have a major impact on energy use in your home.

What is a home's biggest environmental impact?
Energy use, which continues for the life of the house, contributes to air pollution, mercury poisoning of water and land if your energy comes from coal fired power plants. The biggest users are usually the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning systems and water heater, all of which make up about 60% of a typical home's energy budget.
How much energy can a programmable thermostat save?
A programmable thermostat can save up to one third of heating and cooling costs. Heating is one of the largest home energy uses. Additional ways to save energy in home heating: · Seal leaky ducts · Clean or change air filter regularly · Replace you furnace with an energy-efficient
model

American households use twice as much electricity today as they did in 1965.
True. Although most major appliances made today are more energy efficient, electricity is used to power a wealth of new appliances and gadgets like cell phone chargers, laptops and WIFI add to the drain.

True/False: Most homes built before 1980 were not properly insulated.
True. Studies show that only 20 percent of homes built before 1980 were well insulated. Improving your home's insulation is one of the fastest and most cost effective ways to reduce energy waste.

What home appliance typically uses the most energy?
For houses without central air conditioners, the refrigerator is the biggest user, accounting for up to 15% of the home's energy bill.

How much energy can shade trees safe the typical homeowner?
Trees positioned to reduce summer sun and winter wind can reduce a household's energy use by 25% or more. In summer trees can lower air temperature as much as 9 degrees F through shading and evapotranspiration. In winter, a well-designed landscape can cut heating bills by about one-third.

A RUSTIC KIT

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

Rustic while drawing elements from nature; designer Kelly Bailey of Coastal Cabinet Works brings a palette of earth tones together for a home in Southold. The homeowners wanted to update the kitchen to not only better reflect their personal style, but become more integrated into the open floor plan of the house.

The use of space and symmetry radiate a relaxing vibe

With an abundance of stained cabinetry, Kelly brought in oak open shelves to keep the room from feeling too heavy. She expertly placed them to the left of the windows, which allows more natural light to pour into the kitchen at all angles. With the island being the kitchen's center, she gave it a lighter finish to provide contrast and open up the room. To emphasize the rustic feel of the house, she placed open shelves here as well which also provides the added convenience of being able to grab cooking essentials quickly rather than having to fish through cabinets.

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

The combination of Cambria countertop's in Brittanicca Gold and Devon matte brought perfect harmony to the kitchen. Given the laid back life style of the homeowners, zero fuss is key and the durability of the tops ensures they will never have to give a second thought to spills or stains. The earthy feel the tops bring ties the cabinetry together.
Bailey's aim for every project is to infuse each kitchen with its own personality. Her use of space and symmetry radiate a relaxing vibe. Open and laid back, Kelly's layout created a summer retreat the family can't wait to get back to.

Glass Tile
Glass tiles are a classic choice for any style of kitchen. They come in a large variety of colors and sizes, so they can be a subtle accent or make a statement. Also, they're fairly easy to keep clean.

Natural Stone Tile
Natural stone backsplashes come in an array of materials including travertine, marble, and granite. Each material has different maintenance needs, so be s ure to check that out before choosing which to put in your new kitchen.

Ceramic Tile
Ceramic is one of the more common choices for backsplashes. They can come in different sizes, shapes, and colors that allow them to match almost anything from countertops to other accents in your home. Ceramic tiles are also sold over a large price range, so whether you're on a budget or are wanting to spend a little more, these tiles are a great option.

Concrete
Concrete backsplashes have become a popular choice for modern kitchens. It's a different look than the traditional tile backsplash, but is still a great choice and comes in many colors.

Stainless Steel
Stainless steel is a good option if you're looking to make a statement in your kitchen. It is heat resistant, durable, and easy to clean. Using this material as a backsplash will make your kitchen stand out from others.

Wallpaper
Wallpaper can be made to give the appearance of tiles or anything else. It will look nice after it has been installed, but this material won't protect your walls well and is susceptible to easy staining. Keep this in mindwhen deciding whether or not to use this type of backsplash.

What `Egress' Means, and to Your Family's Safety

Before

An egress window is a window that is a specific size and required in your home to provide a means of escape during an emergency. Most egress systems are installed in a basement living area for quick outdoor access in case of a fire or other disaster.

24

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

Glen Dauman, founder of Long Island Egress Pros was forced to consider egress safety many years ago, long before code compliance was an issue. While observing a Junior Firefighters exercise, his son passed out during a simple search and rescue mission. Since then, fire safety has been his number one concern. Long Island Egress Pros was born out of chance but has evolved to become the industry leader.
The 6 reasons homeowners install Egress Window Systems are
l1 Fire Safety l2 Code Compliance l3 Added Value to Your Home l4 Natural Sunlight l5 Fresh Air l6 Peace of Mind
Long Island Egress Pros has been proactive working with local politicians to create public awareness regarding egress. They are proud to announce the design and donation of an Egress Training System to both Nassau and Suffolk County Fire Academy's. Their training system will be instrumental in preparing First Responders when egress window systems become standard in all lower living spaces.

NEW YORK NARI PAR HABITAT FOR HUMAN ON BUILDER BLITZ
For more than 30 years, Habitat for Humanity of Suffolk has built homes and transformed lives and communities. This past September, leaders from various industries came together to raise the walls on a home in Wyandanch, NY.

TNERS WITH ITY OF SUFFOLK

This project was also a Blitz Build home, Habitat Suffolk's first since 2011. With the help of contractors donating their time and talents, this house was built from start to finish in just three weeks. Habitat proudly partnered with the members of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry and Axis Construction Corporation.
"As NARI Community Service Chairman, I have learned that our members and most people in our industry want to be charitable with their time and pocketbooks and we

love working with Habitat for Humanity," explained John Hogan, past president and current treasurer of NARI New York. "It's the perfect opportunity for volunteers skilled and unskilled to lend a hand knowing that the finished home goes to deserving, hardworking members of our community who have been properly vetted."

WHEN DO I NEED A PERMIT?

T he National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI) is reminding homeowners to understand rules regarding building permits before embarking on common remodeling projects.

30

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

Although building codes vary from state to state, a permit is generally required for remodeling projects that involve changes to the building's existing footprint, electrical system or plumbing. Adding new windows to existing walls usually requires a permit. You are likely to need a permit for any project that goes beyond a simple repair or aesthetic upgrade such as:
· adding supporting walls or taking down load-bearing walls,
· an in-ground concrete pool or a porch/deck,
· replacing the roof, · backyard shed or · concrete sidwalks, driveways
and slabs
"There are two major reasons why a homeowner needs a permit on projects," says Michael Harris, president of BRY-JO Roofing & Remodeling, in Richardson, Texas, whose company won a National CotY 2014 Award in the Residential Addition Under $100,000 category. "The first is because when a permit is filed, city officials will inspect the work completed at different stages to ensure the work complies with current safety and health building codes. The second, and most

significant reason, is it protects the homeowner's investment they are making to improve the property.
For instance, during a master bathroom addition completed by

prior owners 10 years before-- without proper permits-- BRY-JO discovered plumbing, electrical and framing that was non-compliant and even dangerous, including the removal of two load-bearing beams, which was causing the second-floor room above the bathroom to start pulling away from the home.

To support the second story, engineered beams were installed in the bathroom and on the exterior wall. The city required two concrete piers below the slab foundation to support the slab. All the electrical and plumbing had to be pulled out and rerun.

www.nari-ny.org

31

"Uncovering this information early on, we were able to incorporate as much detail as possible in our estimate and advise the homeowners we would likely uncover some additional surprises, which added more than $8,000 to the bathroom renovation," Harris says. "They were happy with the final results and relieved that their home was not only beautiful, but safe to live in."

work. If unsure, homeowners can check with their local city or county government office.
Permits need to be obtained before the project gets under way. If city officials spot a project without proper permits, work could be stopped until they are obtained, leaving you without a functioning kitchen or bathroom for weeks and a hefty fine.

When work is done to refresh an existing structure, however, a permit is usually not necessary. For example, updating the appearance of the existing kitchen cabinet doors with laminate layering does not require a permit. Other remodeling updates such as flooring/ceiling coverings, painting/papering, tiling or carpeting and interior wall decorations can usually be done without a building permit. However, even if a permit isn't required, certain projects may require licensed professionals for structural, electrical and plumbing

Professional contractors should pull the necessary permits for a renovation'
If you are using a professional contractor, it's recommended to have them pull the necessary permits. City officials are likely to have a long list of questions that contractors are best qualified to answer.

32

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

"While it may be tempting to forego the permit, a remodel or addition done without one can be a problem if the homeowner decides to sell or refinance," says attorney Patrick Noaker, from Noaker Law firm, a member in the NARI Minnesota chapter.
If the appraiser's total of the square footage of the home differs from county records, it triggers a search for a permit. If not found, the bank may decline to issue a loan on the home. In today's housing market, illegal construction is a risk for the lender. A fire insurance carrier, for example, may refuse to honor a claim.
"If there is a wiring problem that causes the home to burn to the ground, the homeowner's insurance company could refuse to cover the loss," Noaker says.
For more information about permits, find a remodeler in your area or visit NARI.org.

5 Steps for Universal Design

Create Better Living Environments and Increase Your Joy

U niversal Design principles are not only for an aging generation. Improve accessibility and safety especially for kitchens or bathrooms with this guide to incorporate universal design into your next remodeling project.

Special considerations should often be made for those falling in the Baby Boomer age group, who especially should take into account the accessibility of their homes and improvements that can be made. Incorporate universal design strategies into your next remodeling project with this five-step

guide from the experts at the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI), which offers certification in universal design to provide contractors with the knowledge and training to ensure accessibility in kitchen and bathroom designs.

UNDERSTAND YOUR NEEDS Before starting any remodeling project, take the time to define your needs. Ask simple questions such as:
How do you live in your current home? · What health issues ­ current and future ­ should
be considered? · How can a remodel help make your space safer
and easier to use? · Identify Structural Mobility Changes
Mobility addresses the ability to move freely in a space. While mobility issues can impact older adults, it is not limited to only the elderly. While you might not need mobility assistance today, take a walk through your home and identify structural items that should be addressed, such as:
Doorways · Widening doorways to 32-36 inches so walkers,
wheelchairs or even large household items may easily move through

· Removing thresholds that may create a tripping hazard
· Hallways · Expanding hallway
widths to 36-42 inches · Well-lit hallways can improve safety
Clear Space · Incorporating clear space, especially in front of
kitchen appliances · Best practices suggest clear space of 30-by-48
inches to allow for easy access

Safety First Stairs pose a considerable hazard for those with decreased mobility. Ensure the first level of your home provides space for sleeping, eating and has at least one full bathroom. Other safety considerations include:

34

NARI NEW YORK Design & Remodel

· Incorporating non-slip flooring surfaces · Removing the need to go up or down stairs · Creating well-lit rooms

Bathroom Best Practices Adjusting counter and toilet heights are two ways to make bathrooms more accessible. Wall-hung toilets should be approximately two inches higher. A first floor or main floor bathroom should incorporate:
· Structural bracing around the tub, shower and toilet for grab bars
· Walk-in tub or curbless stand-up shower with no threshold
· Levered handles for faucets · Adjustable showerhead

Find a Universal Design Certified Professional (UDCP) on page 10
Kitchen Updates for Ease of Use · Cabinets and counter heights, as well as the
location of appliances, can improve the cooking experience. Other checklist items include: · Dishwashers in drawer units eliminate the need to bend over when loading or unloading · Push button controls for dishwashers for easier use · Refrigerators with drawer unit options or sideby-side models · Ovens and microwaves placed in the wall at appropriate heights

LEAD SAFETY
what you
NEED TO KNOW

A decade ago on April 22, 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) enacted (LRRP), which requires remodelers working in homes built before 1978 to follow work practices designed to minimize the exposure of residents to lead hazards. The LRRP rule is designed to protect pregnant women and children under 6 from toxic lead exposure by requiring contractors to complete an eight-hour training course outlining lead-safe work practices that contain and minimize lead dust. Those who complete the course must supervise the renovation of pre-1978 homes, and the contracting firm must be a certified firm with the EPA.

If your home was built before 1978, there are steps you can take to protect your family from the dangers of lead poisoning.
The following is a checklist for homeowners living in pre-1978 homes:
Verify that your contractor's firm is registered with the EPA unless your state has taken over with its own lead safety program, in which case the certification process may be slightly different. Verify at least one person is a Certified Renovator and has documented the training of the work crew and is supervising the work being completed in the home. Know that these certifications must be accessible at the work site at all times. Firms must post signs before renovation begins, clearly defining the work area and warning occupants and other persons not involved in renovation activities to remain outside of the work area. Make sure you understand and sign the EPA's "Renovate Right" brochure. Remove all belongings from the immediate area of the renovation. Notice if your contractor is using plastic sheeting that is taped 6 feet beyond the perimeter of surfaces undergoing renovation; reusable cloth coverings are not acceptable. Renovators should be cleaning up and mopping daily to minimize dust contamination. Contractors must use HEPA vacuums and/or wet mopping to remove lead particles. All contaminated materials should be placed in heavy duty plastic bags before your contractor disposes of them.
Be cautious of anyone who is disregarding the rule by using un-safe lead work practices. For those choosing to do the work on their own, please visit the EPA site for more information about lead-safe work practices that will minimize lead exposure.
