July Newsletter
Window quilts now eligible for 30% rebate!
Newsletter special sale (only for eNewsletter readers)
Our July Specials are Rain Barrels, Cansolair Solar Air Heaters. Solar Toys and BioProduct compostable utensils and cups. All are 15% off for the entire month of June.
Great American Rain Barrels collect fresh rainwater for use on your garden. Watering your yard or garden from municipal water runs up your water charge (and sewer charge). Capture free water, store until needed, and give good unchlorinated water to your plants and lawn. Three colors to choose from. Easy to connect in series for greater capacity. Sale price - $123.25! 
CanSolAir Solar Air Heating systems warm your house with solar energy. Think of them as a sunroom without the disadvantage of all the heat loss at night. When the sun is shining, the unit pulls the heat into the house at around 90° to 100°, but, at night or when cloudy, the vents close and there is no heat loss!!! This solar unit pays for itself in reduction in oil or electric heat in 4-7 years (depending on heat source used), the quickest payback of any solar technology! On sale this month only for $2290 plus shipping and crating fee (from manufacturer). 
Solar Toys A TDmonthly's (toy trade magazine) top specialty toy-pick at the American International Toy Fair in New York City in 2009! Build a walking king crab, an attacking inch worm, an aerial cable car or a valiant Viking ship and watch them move under the power of the sun (or a bright light). A great way to interest your child in solar energy, and to begin to prepare them for the world of tomorrow when solar energy will be our main energy source. We have a dozen different models to choose from! 
And finally, we have biodegradable utensils, cups and plates on sale. Planning a picnic? This time, be good to the environment. Did you know Styrofoam takes years or decades to break down? Our utensils are made from corn starch, our bowls and plates from potatoes, corn and lime and will return to earth within 60 days of being put in your compost pile (or a landfill, for that matter). Cups are made from PLA bio-plastic and are fully compostable/biodegradable. This time you picnic, be gentle on the earth.
WINDOW QUILTS
We have just received news that Window Quilts. are eligible for a 30% residential energy tax credit. Window Quilts are the cheapest way to reduce your energy costs (and beautiful, as well) and now they are 30% cheaper (after rebate). Window quilts cover windows at night, but roll up, allowing the light and warmth of the sun in during the day. Start preparing for next winter now, and spend the winter in warmth while saving on your fuel costs.

New Products
Enviro-Chutes
The Enviro-Chute was invented and patented by a Laconia citizen!. Nowdays more and more towns are requiring compost come in bags like this large one. Filling them is ALWAYS a pain… unless you use the Enviro-Chute. Easy to set up, helps pack yard waste into bag, and easy to get the chute out afterwards. Long lasting recycled plastic, durable and easy to use, the Enviro-Chute lets you pack more waste into each bag….and it’s a lot easier to do. Recycling tip! – When you take you bag to the transfer station, empty your compostable material from the bag and reuse your bag!! Entirely legal. Save money and materials!!!
Round Low-Flow Bricor ShowerHeads
We have carried Bricor Low Flow Showerheads for several years. Now we add the popular rounded head model showerhad (insert picture. Why by Bricor? They are the best low-flow showerhead on the market. Water enters the patented VACUUM flow "booster" valve where it is aerated and compacted under pressure. Due to the intense force of the vacuum chamber, the aerated water "explodes" as it exits the shower head, creating a powerful shower stream at a very low flow rate (1.25 gallons per minute or less). So you improve shower performance while reducing water use. An additional benefit of the technology is that it reduces scale build-up. Bricor – simply the best quality low flow showerheads there are.
There will be no LARELLA meeting. We will meet again in August.
LARELLA is the Lakes Region Living Lightly Association, a network of people who care about the earth and a resource for those wanting to move their lifestyle in a more sustainable direction. We meet the third Sunday of the Month (this month – June 21st) at the Unitarian Universalist Society, 172 Pleasant Street in Laconia.
