It will actually ppy you to replace that roof now, before winter sets in. Net only will a new roof protect your home from the extra chill of dampness, but a new roof will provide extra insulation against excessive winter cold. HOW : IS YOUR HEATING PLANT Repairs to your heating plant should be made now—before you need it to keep your home warm during the winter. There are many improvements that have greatly in- creased the efficiency of heating installations of all types, during the past few years. It will pay you to look into them. FHA WILL SOLVE EACH NEED Not only is now the proper time to make vour winter check-ups and fix-ups, but now you can readily obtain the funds you need through the Property Improvement Loan Plan of the Federal Housing Act. Loans are obtainable "at low interest and financing charges, for leng terms and on conwvenient re-payment plan. FHA DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE Hot weather is a demon enemy of roofs. The end of a warm sum- mer may bring serious consequences, the result of warping and expan- sion,, Mild fall weath ideal time to make necessary repairs. A checkup may not revoal cracks openly exposed, but may show small openings through which driv- ing winds may whip snow and rain up beneath warped members, re- sulting in leaks which might other- wise reveal themselves during a siege of the “worst” weather. There are certain little things that should be checked over on your heating plant at this time every year. Have you had your fuel tank pumped out. Condensation causes water and dirt to collect in tanks through the winter and spring. Pumping and cleaning now will prevent freeze-ups during the winter. Also, have your burner put into top shape before its busy sea- son. Any property owner, or holder of a lease running at least six months longer than the term of the loan, may obtain an FHA-Insured Loan up to $10,000, provided, he has an assured income and reasonable abil- ity to pay. Repayments may be ar- ranged over as long as five years, installments tailored to your bud- get. Ask any authorized loan agent or the district FHA agent. They will be pleased to help solve your problems.
