NEW HOME GOING
UP IN MOOSE PASS
e
Modern to the last word, a new
residence is being built by Jack
Daws and Charles Doge of Moose
Pass, both of whom are special
ists in the Radient Heat type of
heating a building.
Using Estes & McRae cinder
blocks, manufactured tie re in
Seward, a 20 30 feet home
complete with cinder block par
titions. the partners are planning
to use copper tubing existant so
far as the eye can discern but
embedded in the walls and floor
this copper tubing will carry suf
ficient hot water to keep the
rooms ;it a temperature necessary
to overcome any cold snap that
may come.
Hot water supplied and a
boiler ;ii a basement and while
copper tubing is used in this
house galvanized pipe can also
be used in the same manner.
I his is one ol the first homos
in this area to use this method
of overcoming old man winter's
cold breath but the combination
of cinder blocks and "radient"
heat to us. looks unbeatable.
