  4. Home Performance Questions to Consider How many of you know what kind of gas mileage your house is getting? Do you live in a hybrid or a gas guzzler? How many of you know if you have enough daily fresh air exchanges for you and your family? How many of you know if you have a faulty gas combustion appliance? How many of you are comfortable in your house…drafts in the winter, hot room(s) in the summer or that troublesome bonus room over the garage? How many of you think your energy bill is too high?

  5. Educational Goals Building Science – Whole House Approach Thermal (Building) Envelope – Air Sealing and Insulation Mechanical Systems – HVAC, Ducts, Water Heater Fresh Air Exchanges – ERVs and HRVs Combustion Safety – Furnace, Water Heater, Range Energy Use Behavior – e.g., PlayStation/Xbox = ~1700 kWhs/Yr. = $200/yr! Construction Techniques – e.g., Energy Heel Sustainable Construction Materials – e.g., Bamboo Flooring Energy Efficiency – Making efficient choses vs. less efficient – e.g., LED vs. CFL vs. Incandescent Energy Conservation – Behavioral Water Conservation – e.g., low flow shower heads, drought resistant landscaping Contractor Biz Case - $105/sq. ft. vs. $102/sq. ft. Home Owner Empowerment
