( N A P S I ) M u s t yodors coming from the

basement or crawlspaceare not only extremelyunpleasant but can be

both dangerous andexpensive to correct ifleft untreated.Excess moisture is the

most common problemin basements andcrawlspaceseithercoming from outside or

produced inside thehome by everydayactivities. Studies showthat as much as 50

percent of the air in ahome comes from the

basement or crawlspace.

In essence, whatever airis below the house isalso inside the house.This can contribute to

poor indoor air qualityand cause uncomfort-ably high humiditylevels. It may lead tocostly problems such ascupping of hardwoodfloors, mold growth,increased air conditionerloads and swelling ofmillwork and cabinetry.Millions of Americans

battle high humiditylevels in their homes.If you store anything of

value in your basementor if you use your base-ment as living space, itis important to keep themoisture levels low.Relative humidity levelsrising above 50 percentstimulate the growth ofmold, mildew, bacteriaand other biologicalallergens, which gener-ate musty odors and canaggravate allergies.

Put A Damper On Mold AndMusty Odors

Several organizations,including the Environ-mental ProtectionAgency, American LungAssociation and Ameri-can Medical Associa-tion, recommend usingdehumidifiers to main-tain humidity levels of60 percent or less in thehome.High-capacity dehu-

midifiers, such as theones from Santa Fe, arethe most energy efficienton the market and aredesigned to effectivelyoperate in the coolertemperatures of a base-ment or crawlspace. Theunits help maintain thestructural integrity ofyour home, inhibit moldgrowth and improve theindoor air quality ofyour home by removingodor-causing moisture.Humidity has been a

constant problem in our basement and my fearwas that if the humiditywas not addressed, thatmold would eventuallydevelop, said one hom-eowner. The smalldehumidifiers I had triedhad almost no impact.The Santa Fe took thehumidity from over 70

percent down to 40 percent overnight. Thiswas absolutely amazing,as our basement is 2,000square feet with separaterooms. It feels morecomfortable and smells

better.The dehumidifier line

features an oversizedmoisture removal coil,regenerative heatexchanger and high-capacity fan, which letthe units remove two tothree times more mois-ture per kilowatt of

electricity than aconventional dehumidi-fier. All Santa Fe dehu-midifiers feature supe-rior air filtration, captur-ing allergens down to 1micron in size.For more information

on controlling highhumidity in basementsand crawlspaces, visitwww.DehumidifierSolutions.com.

be a lawn, six tips canhelp the grass grow

greener on your side ofthe fence:1. Water rarely but

thoroughly. Most lawnsneed a good soaking to adepth of six to eightinches.2. Water early, gener-

ally before 10 a.m., sothat the grass gets to dry

before the sun gets toohot.3. Mow weekly: Regu-

lar mowing makes yourlawn healthier and easierto cut.4. Keep the mower

blade sharp for a clean

cut and to reduce lawndisease.5. When you mow, cut

only a third of the heightof the lawn to encourage

Your Lawn: Lawn Growing and Mowing Made Easierstrong roots. Cutting

too short stresses thelawn, creating an envi-ronment ideal for weed

growth and disease.6. Get a good mower.

To help, leading enginemanufacturers areincorporating uniquenew features into their

products that deliverprofessional results andmake cutting the lawn amuch easier and moreenjoyable experience.When selecting a

walk-behind mower, itswise to look at theengine. Select a repu-table engine brand andconsider these ques-tions:

Is it easy to start?With some enginestoday, priming andchoking are a thing ofthe past. Smart-Choke

technology automati-cally manages the start-up process so theres norisk of flooding the

engine. Simply pull thecord and go. Is it easy to fill?

Filling the fuel tank onmany mowers can be achallenge. Engines withAccu-Fill, however,incorporate a uniqueangled neck as well asan opening that is 45

percent larger than thosein most mowers. Thistranslates to easierfilling and less spillingof fuel, which is betterfor the environment. Will it perform? Look

for an engine with

Consistent-Cut technol-ogy. This system deliv-ers more power to themower in extreme loadconditions for a great--

looking cut everytime-even in thick, wetgrass that can stall othermowers.

Is it well constructed?A cool-running OHV(overhead valve) designwith cast-iron cylinder

bore will help yourmower stand up in harshconditionsletting youmow longer and avoidcostly trips to the repairshop.All these helpful

features can be found onKohler Courage XTengines. They can befound in mowers fromseveral popular brands,including Toro,Husqvarna, Ariens and

Lawn-Boy.For more information,

Recently, fire companies from over 50 companies,along with local ambulance and rescue squads andsupport groups, were called to assist PlainfieldTownship in the large Nicos fire.The alarm for this fire went in at approximately

5am and most of these individuals did not get backhome anywhere from 12 hours to the following day.

My congratulations to the Plainfield Township FireCo. and our 911 operators for handling this fire in avery professional manner, thus assuring that therewere no major injuries.A big job well done goes out to each and every

one who assisted in any way, be it fighting the fire,being part of the support group, or donating foodand water. This shows what cooperation is allabout.I, personally, have 3 generations of volunteer

firefighters and rescue personnel in my immediatefamily (husband, son and grandson are firefightersand husband and grandson are also rescue person-nel).Many people forget that these individuals are

volunteers and must have many hours of training toperform their duties. The only time that they areremembered is if they are needed.

As the members of our local fire companies andrescue squads are dedicated VOLUNTEERS, pleasesupport them by responding to their fund drives,coin tosses, breakfasts, dinners and raffles orwhatever else they hold to raise the funds to keeptheir organizations solvent.Large sums of money are needed to constantly

update their equipment and maintain their buildings.If you are able to, please send a donation to yourlocal group in appreciation of their dedication andservices.If you would like to become a member of one of

these groups, just contact a member or call theirheadquarters for information.Imagine what a tragedy it would be if you needed

your local fire company, ambulance or rescue squadand they were no longer there to respond.
