	circulating water.  In 1993, the survey explicitly asked about filtering systems.
	4 Less than 0.5 percent of households lacked a refrigerator.
	5 "Gas" means natural gas or liquefied petroleum gases.
	6 For the years 1984 and 1987, the heater-for-swimming-pool category includes heaters for Jacuzzis and hot tubs.
	NA = Not Available.
	(s) = Less than 0.5 percent of households.
