QUESTION BOX
—Our house has high ceilings
large rooms. Can I do any
thing to improve its appear
ance without making structural
changes? • ,
A—Yes. Paint the ceilings dark
In the same way that a dark roof
of asphalt shingles gives a tall
house a lower look, so will a dark
paint lower a ceiling. Patterned
wallpaper can make rooms seem
smaller, too. If you do use wall
paper, pick your ceiling color from
the paper, using a dark tone for
high ceilings.
*Q—I am finishing my expansion
lattic into two rooms but don’t
know how to heat it. The furnace
doesn’t have sufficient capacity for
'all this extra space. Do I have to
|buy a new furnace or is there
'some other kind of equipment
that could be used?
A—A wall heater is a good so
lution to this frequently encoun
tered problem. Engineers at the
Coleman Heating Institute, Wich
ita, Kan., suggest a ‘‘dual-waH"
model, which fits in the partition
between two rooms and delivers
heat on both sides. The amount of
heat that is delivered to each room
can be controlled. Each room can
get half, or one room can get as
much as 80 percent while 20 per
cent goes to the other. The wall
heater fits between studs, takes no
floor space. *
Q—What is the best way to clean
a flagstone floor?
A—Wash the flagstone with a 5
percent solution of muriatic acid,
being careful to use rubber gloves
and a wood-handled brush. Then
rinse with clear water and wax.;
Q —The latch on our front door
doesn't catch when we close the
door, although it seems to work
with the door open. How can we
fix it?
A—The door has probably
shrunk. You should remove the
door and hinges from the frame,
then insert pieces of hard card
board or thin wood between the
hinges and the frame. When you
replace the hinges, use longer
screws to make up for the added
thickness.
