THUMBS DOWN AWARDS- toxic products
INTRODUCTION
We have been using and experimenting with materials,
products, and equipment in our projects and privately for many years. As
a result, we have created an extensive data base, using our personal experiences
from case histories in building and renovation, published data from other
sources on toxics, and data from chemically sensitive people's reactions.
Included in this is data from medical books and other publications, and
our own information from hundreds of clients we have talked with
all across the country over the years. Because we work in the field, we
are very aware of not only what works and what doesn't, but why things
work and why they don't, who they work for and who they won't. We have
become very aware of when and how to use materials and equipment,
and all the specifics surrounding material handling for healthy building.
Creating safe healthy environments for sensitive
people is not an easy task. It is so detailed and involved that one small
mistake can be devastating to our health and our pocketbook, as many
people will testify to. Because there are so many details we need to understand
to accomplish each small task properly, and the handling of specialty materials
is so different from what the ordinary contractor does or knows how to
do, we have always made an effort to instruct people on what materials
to use under different circumstances, and how to use them properly.
For many years we have avoided selling materials.
Salesmen usually say anything to make a sale, and we all are regularly
fooled by false claims and poor quality products. But, because we have
been using most of these products for so long, it is only logical that
we start supplying friends and clients with these materials that are hard
to find and difficult to use.
PRODUCT INFORMATION
We make a great effort to be sure our products are NOT;
1. from sweat shops,
2. from or linked to harming or affecting endangered species,
3. animal tested,
4. from sources that destroy the planet,
5. detrimental to human health.
All products that are organic are specified as such.
We are primarily concerned that our products are safe for human use,
and they do not have levels of toxics in them that create health risks
for our clients. Therefore we classify products and make specifics notes
for all concerns relative to health affecting issues with all our products.
Safe for human use!!!
Our products must be safe for human use. It is unfortunate in today's
world that we have actually very few products that are not in some way
a problem for human health. Kids suffer the most, as their respiration
rate per pound is so much higher than adults. Most toxics, like poisons
and so on are not properly investigated before they are placed on the market.
Also, "safety standards" are set for the average full sized [overweight]
American adult!! So when risks are spoken of relative to human exposure,
kids and other physical variables that may affect health are not explained
or qualified.
From the soup of toxics a product may be made from, to the environment
it is used in, there are any number of contaminants that can affect
our health. Our society has lost perspective and therefore control over
this problem.
Through years of our private research, we have established our
Tad Taylor's HEALTHY HOMES rating system for products, to make known risk
factors to human health.
We primarily sell products we have tested and used. These are classified
in our rating system, detailing it's class of safety and any special handling
or application procedures required to make that product safe. [We may be
currently testing others, which have not been rated yet. These will
be marked as such].
Every product comes with notes that are based on our research. This
is a whole new standard, the first of it's kind, based on actual human
health data, not from testing with mice or from theory, for people who
want to know the truth relative to health!!
A DOUBLE LETTER rating [like D-C], indicates the product may cross rating lines, especially if the product can achieve two states. Paint is a good example. It is a liquid that becomes a solid when it is used. The toxics are gases, that are usually most active when wet. When the paint dries, it may have another rating. Letter one in a two letter rating of C-B for example, indicates C, the first letter, that the material is STANDARD when wet, but then B or NONTOXIC when dry.We are rather strict in our classifications, because of our experience. We make these reasons known so you are aware of the issues.
A; INERT
No odor, no offgassing
B; NON-TOXIC
There may be some odor but it is not toxic in most cases.
Exceptions to the rule may be a very small number of people who have problems
with the material or associated odors. A good example of this would be
wood. Normally sensitive people do not have problems with maple or ash,
but in very rare cases some do. Warnings will be posted on each product
category as necessary.
C; STANDARD
Materials like regular fabrics or insulation would fit
this class. Certain chemicals may be present with these products that cause
definite health problems.
D; HAZARDOUS
Items that fit this category would be Clorox.,
oil based paint, ozone and other materials that cause obvious health problems.
E; EXTREMELY TOXIC
Chlordane, gasoline, fuel oil, pesticides, herbicides
etc. fit this category.

SERVICES
We offer a myriad of services relative to building, design and the use of all materials and equipment. Healthy building is not just about choosing materials, it is about choosing the right materials, using them properly, and integrating each area with then next properly. Houses are systems, either working properly together, or not working in sinct. Over 95% of all housing today is sub standard relative to health because of improper design, workmanship or material and equipment use. We can sell you the right materials, but we can not be sure you will use them properly without setting up specific rules and methods for using them. This is the most important item we have to contribute to your health.
We consult, design and set up project management, detailing contracts, material use and so on, to protect your investment and project success.
Please check out our SERVICES pages for more information.

TAD'S TIPS
There is really only one type of window air conditioner, though companies
sell two types, [those that recirculate interior air and those that bring
in exterior air]. The ones that are supposed to recirculate interior air
only, let air in from the outside, even when they are supposed to be closed
off. Because the vents are poorly built and designed, they are far from
air tight. As house pressure demands, air can be sucked in from outside
through the appliance into the house.
VAN and TRAVEL TRAILER AIR CONDITIONERS; B
These are roof top, 110 volt type air conditioners that have been rebuilt
to be as clean as possible.
All toxic insulation and materials have been removed and the aluminum
fins have been decontaminated.

Worried
about the smells and toxics from the cardboard filter frames in your new
TFP?
We rebuild these frames out of metal so there are no toxic odors. You
can also save some $$$ by buying the filter media in rolls and replacing
them yourself!

So tight it doesn't let air through. Great for covering smelly furniture, beds, seats and floors. There are several types of barrier cloth, but even the organic is manufactured with sizing oil on the machines that is a problem to some. We have a method for cleaning this material to an A rating, and you can purchase this from us already cleaned.
Barrier cloth comes in different weave tightness, or threads per inch.

10.3 oz tube UL Classified FM approved............................................$9.95
5 gallon pail....................................................................................$600.00
In many states it is now a code requirement to fill all plumbing and
electrical holes with draft stop material. This reduces the capability
of fires to spread rapidly through wall cavities, but it also stops toxic
air flow through wall cavities into the interior rooms. Air transfer through
wall cavities carries toxic insulation and other particulate contamination
and odors.
When properly installed in new constructions, draft stop will also
eliminate toxic air flow that can cause health problems.
CAULK-SEALER for METAL D-B....5 fl oz tube................................$7.50
This is the absolute best exterior caulk sealer for all types
of metal, especially aluminum trailers.This material adheres exceptionally
well to dry metal and it actually sucks into cracks and crevices. Easy
to apply small nozzle for shooting into fine cracks and holes with maximum
control.Comes in clear, white and aluminum color. Far superior to silicone
and other popular sealers. Classified as toxic to use as it has very strong
odors with active voc's when applied, but in a short period of time there
are no remaining odors, as it hardens and cures. In 60 to 70 degree temps,
it skims and hardens in 24 hours,
cures in 3 to 6 days. Comes in clear, white and aluminum color. Should
be applied when surfaces are warm and dry.
We use this for sealing leaks in metal trim on windows in cars, all
seams in our Airstream trailers, and many other misc.hard to deal with
situations.
SILICONE, 100%
The best caulk available for all applications. Low odor that quickly
dissipates. Great for stopping air infiltration in cracks and joints.
WHITE, 10.3 fl oz.................................................................................$4.50
CLEAR.................................................................................................$4.30
PAINTABLE SILICONE, white in color...............................................$6.75
TAD'S
TIP'S !!! SILICONE
Silicone is a porous material. It will absorb toxic odors if used as
a barrier to stop toxics from entering. For example, mirror adhesive is
a type of silicone, but not 100%, and is very toxic. Using regular silicone
to fill cracks around mirrors in hopes of containing this odor will
work for only a short period of time. The odor will eventually come right
through the 100% silicone.
Also, do not use NON PAINTABLE silicone in any application that may need to be painted in the future! Paint will not stick to this, and if it is painted on, the paint will bead up and look terrible! Paint will absolutely not stick to this, not even a little bit.
CAULK, HEAT RESISTANT; B
Every house we go into has holes and leaks in
the furnace, boiler vent duct or chimney attachment. This allows for combustion
gas blow back when the furnace fires up, and sometimes continually during
regular running operations.
If you have a gas furnace, pilot toxics like
carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxides etc can escape all the time if the house
pressure demands. All duct joints and intersections with chimneys should
be air tight. This is the stuff that will with stand the heat from stoves,
boilers and furnaces, forming an air tight seal that should last for a
long time. No odor,use in applications up to 2000 degrees, and on clean
surfaces. Apply with fingers or trowel.
1 QUART CONTAINER; B.................................................................$ 11.50
Tad's
Tips!!!!
Cementing up all the holes, cracks and seams is always a good move
under any circumstances, but in many situations this will not eliminate
the source of all the leaks. This is especially true for gas appliances,
which usually will leak from so many sources, sealing cracks in exhaust
vents may not have an impact. Because of all the variables with gas appliances,
we generally advocate the removal of this equipment, especially gas water
heaters, dryers, furnaces and boilers.
TSP; B , 16
OZ......................................................................................$4.00
1 lb.
Tri-sodium phosphate, the best degreaser and oil remover we have found.
No odor what-so-ever.
We use this on location for cleaning metal and so on. In the laundry,
it will remove oil from sizing, and other chemicals used to make cloth,
including pesticides.
5 LBS.....................................................................................................$10.00
TSP is a miracle cleaner. Rated at a B classification, it has no odor but it is caustic and should be used with care. Eye wear and protective gloves should be used to protect skin. TSP will remove grease and oil and many other chemicals used in the manufacturing of metal, fabrics, clothes and on other contaminated surfaces.
TSP must be activated by use in warm water. Washing repeatedly may eliminate chemicals and toxic dyes, and other odors from new clothes and fabrics.
TAD'S TIPS!!! TSP
TSP will
also remove pesticide reside from non porous, hard surfaces such as floors
and baseboards. BEWARE!!! If you are using this on delicate fabrics, it
may discolor them, so test materials first. If you are washing floors,
such as oak, be very careful not to get the floor to wet. Use a damp wipe
rather than a lot of H2O, as oak and other woods will discolor if they
get too wet!
CLOTHES-B
Coveralls, non-toxic tyvek type, full suit with opened leg and arm
holes.
red tag special!!!
As we enter into the damp season, we are taking 10% off all dehumidifiers between March 1st and April 1st. This is no April fools!!!
We highly recommend investing in one of these commercial dehumidifiers
if you have a basement and
moisture is a problem. Standard dehumidifiers will not remove
enough moisture to reduce or eliminate mold. They will run constantly but
will not remove enough moisture to get the humidity level below 56%, the
level that most mold begins to grow at.
DEHUMIDIFIERS,COMMERCIAL, REBUILT -B
We dismantle these commercial units and remove toxic sound deadeners
and other materials. These are units that have humidity controls that make
it possible to remove almost all the humidity in the air. We use them,
among other things, to reduce the moisture level in wood and interior
air before we install flooring. The sub floor and the flooring must be
around 4 to 7 %, and this one unit can do this for a whole house. These
are excellent for drying out damp cellars and can not be compared
to a standard floor dehumidifier unit, which has a hard time getting down
to 60 or 70% relative humidity in the summer. If you are to stop
mold growth, you must get below 55% relative humidity. These units have
controls that allow
you to determine what per centage humidity you get to, and they have
the power to go down to lower than 10%. This will suck the moisture right
out of the walls!

CONDENSATE PUMP............................................................................$100.00
If you have to pump your waste water up to get it out of the basement,
you may need a pump such as
this. Water from the dehumidifier will flow to the pump which has a
small reservoir. Once this reservoir fills to capacity, it automatically
pumps the water up and out! No nee for dumping containers every couple
of hours.
HIGH E DRY DEHUMIDIFIERS
These commercial type dehumidifiers remove massive amounts of water
from the air. These are used in commercial work to dry out water damaged
areas and so on. If you need the super mombo of dehumidifiers or work drying
out water damaged areas, this is the one for you.
Tad Taylor's Healthy Homes offers full design services for
all parts of residential and commercial projects, including
offices and schools. Architectural design services include model making
and the design of all systems, such as air systems, radon prevention systems,
interior and exterior design. Good health does not come about by default
or by mistake, it must be a very deliberate, focused effort by experienced
professionals. Now a days this is a very complicated area, where each part
critically affects all others. When mistakes are made, or items are not
addressed or overlooked, the project fails like a card house, one piece
affecting the balance of all the others. Proper planning is the most critical
way to avoid problems and to save time and money.
Check out our site for more information of our unique design services.
Improper chimney venting can be a major issue relative to indoor air
quality. Anyone can set up a chimney these days, but very few people are
actually qualified to determine what type of chimney will work properly
under exact site conditions. Code requires a certain height, but this is
not always appropriate for each situation. And very few people actually
check to be sure chimneys are venting properly under varied conditions.
How furnaces or boilers are set up, what type of internal house pressure
issues may affect the draw, how cold the chimney is and how high it is
off the roof of the house, or where it is placed on the roof of the house,
all affect proper drafting.
Not all chimneys draw properly, and we find that blow back of
toxic gases is a common problem, especially when boilers and furnaces first
fire up. If the chimney is cold and or if the site creates down drafts
from nearby trees or structures or hills, it may take more pressure to
push the initial toxics up and out the chimney.
These inducers start before the furnace fires and draw until after the furnace or boiler shuts down. Installs easily in the furnace or boiler exhaust duck. Check boiler size and duct size to determine exact size.

AIR TIGHT BOXES; C
There are many ways to reduce wall and ceiling cavity toxics when building
a new house. One way is to use electrical
boxes that stop air flow through the electrical fixtures. These seat
tightly against wall board, and seal tightly around incoming wires, so
toxic air flow is eliminated.
We have given these a C rating because they have foam seals around
a hard plastic box. These for most people are not a problem, but super
sensitive people may find them objectionable.

AEGIS GUARDTM
"Mobile Phone Radiation Shield"
Whether you call them mobile, cellular, wireless, analog, digital,
GSM or PCS phones, they are the only radiation emitting product sold to
consumers that is intentionally placed against the head.
The AegisGuardTM Phone Radiation Shield is made from specially shielded top grade black leather with a transparent keypad and display cover (varies according to model), and includes a riveted belt clip and removable carrying strap. It protects the phone and the user, providing significant advantages over other shielding products and traditional leather cases.
Phone Radiation
Shields confirm that up to 99.9% of the radiation emitted by the earpiece
area of mobile phones is deflected away from the head and neck of the user,
and up to 99.5% of the radiation emitted from the keypad and/or display
without affecting reception or battery life. Instead of presenting estimated
or simulated results, o only testing the shielding material on a flat surface
like some other manufacturers do, all AegisGuard tests measured the actual
radiation power levels in dB emitted through the front of mobile phones
with and without AegisGuard Shields installed. AegisGuard Phone Radiation
Shields are manufactured in USA of top quality materials to carefully fit
specific phone models for optimum shielding effectiveness. 3 year warranty,
patents pending.

CELLULAR HANDS-FREE EAR MIC
By simply increasing
the distance from the cell phone to your ear, you can reduce your radiation
exposure dramatically. This handy earphone/microphone plugs into any cellphone
with a 2.5 mm jack (not suitable for Nokia phones), allowing you to place
the phone up to 4 feet away from your head. Radiation at this distance
is a tiny fraction of the radiation
you get by holding the phone up to your head. And it frees up you hands
for driving, typing, or whatever! Very light weight with soft ear cushion
for comfort and clarity.

CAN PREV
Reduces the EMF Output from Appliances, Tools, Heaters and Lights by 90%
We
didn't think it was possible, until we tested it ourselves. This is not
a shield or a subtle energy device. CAN PREV actually reduces the electric
and magnetic field output. And you can measure the results with your gauss

MICROALERT
Radio/Microwave Alarm
MicroAlert
is an alarm that you wear like a pager that will alert you to the presence
of radio frequency and microwave radiation. The MicroAlert is important
protection for all pacemaker users, those sensitive to RF radiation from
TV or cell phone broadcasts, or anyone who lives or works in the presence
of microwave or RF hazards. Can even be used to detect audio and video
transmission from concealed bugs or the unauthorized use of cellular phones!
MicroAlert will respond to as little as 1 µW/cm² on HIGH sensitivity,
and as little as 3 µW/cm² on STANDARD sensitivity. When MicroAlert
is moved closer to the source of RF radiation, the chirps will become more
frequent, and will become a solid tone when exposure is high.
Responds to frequencies from 100 kHz to 3 GHz, although response is not flat over this range. What this means is that at any given setting, the threshold will vary with frequency.
The beeping alarm threshold can be adjusted from no threshold (constant beeping regardless of radiation exposure), to infinite threshold (no beeping, regardless of exposure). It is intended to detect cell phones, cell towers, microwave ovens and most RF transmitters. On HIGH sensitivity, you will notice that it can detect cell towers up to 300 feet away!
Only 1-5/8" x 2-1/4", the 1 oz. MicroAlert uses 2 Lithium coin cells
#2032 which should last about 3 years with normal use. Includes convenient
belt clip. 1 year mfr. warrantee.

DIGI-FIELD Field Strength Meter
Wide Band RF Receiver
Measuring radio
frequency and microwave radiation has never been easier! This extremely
sensitive unit covering the amazing range of DC - 12 GHz (limited by the
antenaa you use) will give you digital readout of the relative field strength
of broadcast signals such as cellular phone, microwave oven leakage, TV
station, CB radios and even radar using the telescoping antenna provided.
Even use it as an RF safety monitor! Adjusting the length of the antenna
will affect the signal gain. Can also be used to make relative power measurements
(and determine power loss) of single frequency coaxial sources such as
cable TV, and with simple adapters, this meter may also be connected directly
to any receiving antenna to measure signal strength while the antenna is
tuned, modified or repositioned. Large 3½ digit LED readout is easy
to see, even in poorly lit locations and from safe distances. Only 3" x
4" x 1½" and weighs less than a pound, this is the best value for
checking high frequency radiation sources tuning or modifying broadcast
antennas, or testing the effectiveness of your RF shielding. Powered by
a standard 9V battery which is included.

The
TriField Meter is the only one which combines magnetic, electric, and radio/microwave
detection in one package. This meter combines all these unique features
with affordable pricing for fast, reliable measurements of electromagnetic
pollution:
Continuous sampling analog readout; Omni-directional electric & magnetic sensitivity; Two separate scales for magnetic field readings; Hand-held portability and simplicity.
The TriField Meter will accurately measure EMF
pollution from these "hot spots" in your home, office, or work environment
so you can take steps for "prudent avoidance":
An external electric
field will induce an electric field within our bodies. In this sense, our
bodies act as antennas picking up fields from electric blankets, alarm
clocks, power lines, and just about everything connected to a source of
electric power, whether it is switched on or not. Delicate biological cellular
processes (like brain function and heart muscle contraction) operate on
the scale of microvolts to millivolts. Some experts warn against induced
voltages of 20 mV or higher as they can theoretically interfere with the
subtle cellular activity. Simply touch this sensor with a finger and know
instantly what effect external fields are having inside your body (where
it counts!). Will help you detect irritating sources of electric field
which may not otherwise be obvious. (DMM not included- see below for high
performance, low cost DMMs).

The Natural EM Meter
The NATURAL EM
METER detects radio/microwaves and changes in extremely weak static (DC
or "natural") electric and magnetic fields. Using both a needle type meter
and audible tone, it detects: distant radio transmitters, geomagnetic storms,
unusual magnetic solar activity, electrical activity of thunderstorms,
leaky microwave ovens, magnetized rocks or bed frames, cellular phone EMF
output, and concealed surveillance bugs. Because it can sometimes detect
the electrical presence of a person, this versatile meter can even
be used in paranormal studies. Sensitive to changes in electric fields
of as little as 3 V/m with a full scale deflection at 1000 V/m. Will measure
magnetic field changes as small as 0.5% of the Earth's magnetic field (2.5
mG) and as high as 100 microtesla (1000 mG). RF sensitive down to 0.01
mW/cm², with a full needle deflection at 1 mW/cm² over the frequency
range of 100 kHz to 2.5 GHz.. 9v battery included. One year manufacturer's
warrantee.

When we tested
it, we were amazed at how well this device does what it claims. Place this
simple pad on your car seat and attach the provided ground wire to any
portion of the metal seat frame. The Bio-Grounder drains away body voltage
which otherwise builds up (90 mV or more in some tests!) This body voltage
has been shown to add tension to the nervous system, increase heart rate
and accelerate fatigue. Bio-Grounder may reduce symptoms electrically sensitive
individuals typically experience in the car. Drivers report a calm
increased alertness, less fatigue, and less tendency for road rage! Can
be used in any car or truck. One size fits all. Get one for each passenger.

9 inch two speed fan, 22 1/2 x 5 1/2 x 15 1/16 fits window openings
23 inches, to 34 wide and 15 1/2 high.
Because this fan and frame fits inside a window frame, it helps
control room pressure and immediate air return
from around the fan. This frame and fan creates more rapid and efficient
air turn over inside the house, rather
than simple local air exhaust with around the fan air return from the
outside. Another words it helps create pressure
around the fan that enables air to be drawn from the rest of the house,
rather than letting the outside air slip
around the fan back into the room!!
IN LINE DUCT FANS
There are no really good vent fans that deliver the CFM's and pressure
they specify. Because of this, house or
exterior pressure can determine whether any fan works well or doesn't
work at all. Proper venting can be an art
as with any building issue. These fans are extremely efficient and
will not be affected by pressure like most other
vent fans. For in line venting of any type, these fans are high quality,
designed for constant use, low noise and super
efficiency.

Used to make door and window frames, cracks and
holes air tight. There are a number of different types of expandable
foams on the market. Regular expanding foam,
which is good for most applications where there is no restriction in the
size
of the cavity to be filled. Minimal expanding
foam on the other hand, will not blow out window and door frames, mishaping
them as the foam cures. Latex based expanding foams are a poor substitute,
as they lack body and substance. These foams cure to a hard non smelling
foam with a solid coating on the outside.
Every house we go into has holes and leaks in
the furnace, boiler vent duct or chimney attachment. This allows for
combustion gas blow back when the furnace fires
up, and sometimes continually during regular running operations.
If you have a gas furnace, pilot toxics like
carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxides etc can escape all the time if the house
pressure demands. All duct joints and intersections
with chimneys should be air tight. This is the stuff that will with
stand the heat from stoves, boilers and furnaces,
forming an air tight seal that should last for a long time. No odor,
use in applications up to 2000 degrees, and on
clean surfaces.

Tips
Cementing up all the holes, cracks and seams is always a good move
under any circumstances, but in many situations
this will not eliminate the source of all the leaks. This is especially
true for gas appliances, which usually will leak from
so many sources, sealing cracks in exhaust vents may not have an impact.
Because of all the variables with gas
appliances, we generally advocate the removal of this equipment, especially
gas water heaters, dryers, furnaces and boilers.
FOIL- BUILDERS -B
Our several types of builders aluminum foil have various uses and different

with no paper like qualities. Many would consider this to be inert,
but this is not so. We have located the best material over the years that
we have had the least problems with. But people with aluminum sensitivities
should test samples first.Generally this material is removed from the interior
environment when used as heat reflector,so it is not a risk. If this is
being used as a barrier against odors, please check samples first. Sample
is $5.00 for handling and mail. This is not bubble foil insulation!

RUNTAL HEATERS, HYDRONIC
Non electrical hydronic radiant baseboard heaters.
DUCTING REQUIREMENTS in many states now prohibit the use of screws for
fastening sections together. Lint and other debris collects on screws and
clogs air passage as well as creating health problems from dust mites and
mold growth. Screws
also prevent thorough cleaning.
BACK DRAFT DAMPERS
Many times the pressure of a building will create
a wind tunnel out of your vent ducts. The placement of
a back draft damper such as this will eliminate
the potential for drafts being pulled through ducting into the
building. Note that these are pretty good
and under most situations will stop 99% of all infiltration, but
under pressure they will not stop 100% of the air coming in.
If you are looking for 100% protection from
infiltration because you are sensitive to smoke or other outside contaminants,
check out the motorized
dampers we have listed below.

it is all in proper line before installing. The dampers fit tightly
into your existing ducts, so if the weather stripping is not placed around
the insert as it should be, lining up with itself, it may leak. If you
would like us to check these for you, we will.
HEAT RECOVERY VENTILATORS
STANDARD WHOLE HOUSE UNITS
These units have not been rebuilt, cleaned or decontaminated in any
way. They will be delivered straight
out of the factory, and have all the standard materials in them. They
are designed to heat incoming air
with the exhaust air running over it, through an aluminum heat exchanger.
Another words, these units exhaust stale air from a particular location
and bring in fresh air from the outside to supply certain areas you spend
a lot of time in. The exhaust air runs through a heat exchange core that
heats the incoming air, which also flows over the core as it comes in.
These are available in different sizes, which can be used in different
sized homes and spaces. These have double fan motors and operate
off 120 volt single phase power.
The first three model have single pass exchange and operate at approx
60 to 65 % efficiency.
The last two, DCS models have double pass exchange capacity and opperate
at 85 to 90% efficiency.

the chimney when the boiler starts. With the new metal chimney products
available, anyone can set up a chimney these days, but very few people
are actually qualified to determine what type of chimney will work properly
under exact site conditions. Variables in chimney construction, height,
chimney materials and boiler or furnace variables, and exhaust vent pipe
set up, are among the many things that can affect draft efficiency. If
you experience any sensitivity to combustion toxics because they are in
your home, this piece of equipment is a very critical investment for your
health. Remember, formaldehyde, sulfur dioxides, and carbon monoxide are
among the many toxics that can be spilled from furnaces and boilers. This
inducer is set to start blowing before the boiler goes on to get [warm]
air moving up the chimney, and shuts off after the boiler or furnace turns
off, helping to forcing all toxic exhaust air up the chimney against
any pressure resistance.
These inducers start before the furnace fires and draw until after the furnace or boiler shuts down. Installs easily in the furnace or boiler exhaust duck. Check boiler size and duct size to determine the size inducer you need.

These mowers are rechargeable battery design, with no toxic emissions and very low sound. Fun to use and environmentally correct!!! No messy and toxic gas and oil. [ just a note that according to statistics, hundreds and thousands of gallons of gas are spilled each year while people are trying to fill their lawn mowers. Apparently, no manufacturers of mowers have ever heard this- wake up and redesign those idiotic gas tanks so they have a filler spout that helps reduce or eliminate spillage!]

AIR TIGHT HIGH HAT LIGHT FIXTURES
Air and heat loss, toxic wall and ceiling cavity odors and carcinogenic
insulation particles are all a major concern for anyone with sensitivities.
Insulation backer paper [which is tar covered] and oil from fiberglass
insulation, plus binder material and formaldehyde, are all toxics common
to wall and ceiling cavities. Add heat from the sun or the house itself,
and reverse pressure, and all this stuff comes back in through cracks outlets
and especially the light fixtures. These, our special brand, when installed
properly, are completely air tight. Use up to 75 watt Halogen type
bulbs-

GENERATORS
Ozone is a powerful oxidizer that when not used properly can cause
several types of health problems.Ozone is especially risky for those with
bronchial or respiratory problems, but also for those with extreme reactivity,
chemical sensitivities, children and pregnant women. Ozone does not know
the difference between human flesh and other free radicals, so it can be
an irritant to the bronchial passage if a person is exposed to too much.
Ozone also creates risky situations by releasing other toxics or mixes
of toxics. For example when mold is killed by ozone it releases gases that
are irritants; when ozone is used around rubber products, it can release
a mixture of chemicals as it oxidizes those components that make
up rubber. We do not recommend the irresponsible use of these pieces of
equipment. Please refer to our book "The Truth About Ozone" for more details
on how to use this properly with minimal risk.
We are selling several types of machines, having specific components that create the least toxic ozone. But your use of this potentially dangerous material must be done with great care and moderation.

LEAD PAINT ENCAPSULATORS
Not too long ago I had a major fit because our local Vermont National Bank was using toxic paint remover during business hours!!! This was during the late fall when the place was closed tight and the ladies working there all day long had to breathe in toxics from those removers for days. There is absolutely no reason for this what so ever.
Here is a truly miraculous soy product, made from 100% American
grown soy beans, that is totally non toxic. This water based stripper,
covers over 200 sq. ft. a gallon. The purchase price seems a little hefty,
but it actually costs less than .35 per square foot to use. And.......yes
folks.... it is REUSABLE!!!! so it even costs less than THAT if you use
it over again !!!! Water clean up. It is safe to dispose of in landfills,
safe enough for skin and hands, can be used on lead based paints,
and can be used on vertical and horizontal surfaces. This is the only product
to use if people have to be around when work is being done.

Covers 200 sq ft per gallon. Water clean up and non-toxic, contains
no methylene chloride. Can be used on
vertical and horizontal surfaces, and is non evaporative so you can
work at your leisure.
