Conversion To Duplexes Solves Housing Problem With shortage of desirable hous- ing still acute in most parts of Canada, old, multi-roomed houses are coming to the rescue through conversion into duplex or triplex form, according to the Canadian Institute of Plumbing and Heating, which has been making a study of the housing problem. Older houses are very often just as sound basically as the day they were built, and require only minor or architectural changes, plus renovation and re-decoration, to make excellent homes for two or three families instead of one. These conversions are particu- larly apt where the children of the family have grown up, some having married, others moved to other cities. This leaves the old folk with too large a house on their hands, yet they are often re- luctant to move out. FACILITIES NEEDED In many such cases, where the house is so built that the upper floor is virtually cut off, there is probably no need to construct a separate entrance, for the upper flat. The main requirement to make the house a two-family unit is the provision of kitchen facili- ties on the second floor, and' a bathroom for the ground floor occupants. In planning this type of conver- sion, there are a few main factors to keep in mind. First, the upper floor kitchen should be located, when possible, directly aboye the lower Ritchen. This makes for easy installations by extending the pres- ent water, drainage, and elec- tricity or gas facilities directly to the upper floor. In choosing fixtures for the up- per kitchen, particular attention should be paid to the selection of the right type of sink. A combina- tion laundry - tub and sink unit with built-in drain board will prob- ably be most suitable. Bear in 'mind that the upper tenant will very likely want to use the sink for a certain amount of laundry as well as preparation of food and dishwashing. Conversely, the location of the lower - floor bathroom should be as near as possible directly be- low the main bathroom, and for the same reasons. But in placing the lower floor bathroom, it is like- ly that suitable space for it will be a greater problem. NOT GREAT PROBLEM However, this is not nearly so much of a problem as might be supposed. Modern bathroom eauip- ment is so designed that excellent arrangements of fixtures have often been made in a space as small as 5° x 5. And so a bath- room might fairly easily be put into a large clothes closet, a stor: age room or a pantry. Bathtubs are now made in a variety of shapes and sizes to make the job of the conversion planner easy. Tubs will be found to fit into almost any shape of room, even very narrow ones. In these, a square bath-tub, which has the diagonal length of a nor- mal tub, may be the answer to the problem. These tubs have the added feature of a bath seat, which is a convenience of particular ap- peal to the elderly. It is quite likely that the upper bathroom, too, will require reno- vation to bring it in line with the decor of the rest of the flat. One big advantage for the planner is that in most older houses the bathroom is fairly large. This gives an opportunity to ofer the new tenant a room which is both bathroom, dressing room and pow- der room combined. New B.E.
