G1.k Appliances Owned by the Family
Encircle the appropriate response for the appliances owned by the family. If the answer is “yes”, ask for the quantity of that particular appliance. Do not rely on what you see because there may be appliances like radios or televisions inside the bedrooms. If the family has second home or a vacation house, be sure to include the appliances/items that the family has in this second home.
Rented items such as colored TV set are to be excluded in this section. Do not record appliances that are out of order.
Write an explanation for any change in the kind and quantity of household appliances during the second visit.
An electric fan does not fall under air conditioner. A table with two long benches ('papag”) should not be counted as dining set.
Explanations of Specific Items
Videotape Recorder/Player - commonly known as Betamax, Betacord, VHS, VCD, DVD, etc.
Refrigerator - includes a refrigerator-freezer combination unit, which may have two exterior doors with separate refrigeration and freezing compartments (side by side or one above the other).
Freezer - may be upright or chest-type. Report under this item if the freezer is a separate unit.
Note that an icebox is neither a refrigerator nor a freezer and, therefore, should not be reported in this group.
