As of March 1, 2006, every home in Ontario is required to
have working smoke alarms on every storey or level,
including basements. Non-compliance with the Ontario Fire
Code smoke alarm requirements can result in a ticket for
$235 or a fine of up to $50,000 for homeowners, tenants and
individual landlords, and up to $100,000 for corporations.

Does your
home have Aluminum Wiring
Acquiring insurance on homes with aluminium
wiring may require a specific certificate
stating that the Aluminium wiring has been
inspected by a qualified
electrical inspector. This certificate may
have to be ordered and paid for by the owner
(seller) of the home. This eventually
may be a requirement on renewal of home
owner’s policies as well.

Warning
Warning from U of G. If
you use mulch. if you use mulch around your house , be very
careful about buying it this year. After the Hurricane in
New Orleans many trees were blown over. These trees were
then turned into mulch and thestate is trying to get rid of
tons of this mulch to any state or company will come and
haul it away. So it will be showing up in major centres at
dirt cheap prices with one huge problem.
Formosan Termites will be the bonus in many of those bags.
New Orleans is oneof the few areas in the country
where Formosan Termites has gotten a strong hold and most of
the trees blown down were already baddly infested.. Now we
may have the worst case of transportin a problem to all
parts of the country. These termites can eat a house in no
time and wehave no control against them..
So... spread the word about avoiding cheap mulch and finding
out where it came from.
