Energy Efficient Homes

I tried to  "Ask ED",  but I got the email back saying the account didn't exist. I had an idea for my husband's boss, he liked the idea, but I can't find any eco home inspection companies in Michigan, let alone in the Detroit area.

HELP!

hello eco-lovers

Here is in my mind the leading Battery System i believe for solar powered homes or boats even

example info on 24v system

Windows have to be the biggest source of energy lose in a home. The R value of a windown is very low. Many are from R1 to R6 or more if they are new triple pane gas filled. A wall with insulation is R10 to R40 or more for a zero energy home.

New windows are very expensive and make a lot of mess and trash when you remove the old ones.  I have been trying to make mine better ?

Listed Green, an exclusive Green MLS for the viewing public, has recently hit the"hundred listing" milestone.

As proud providers of awesome green education within each listing, we hope to change the way people shop for energy efficient homes everywhere. Yes, we have a way to go, but people are starting to talk about what we do.

Listed Green personally reviews the information before it gets listed. We also try and educate, by adding Links to various terms used in describing the green home or project.

Hi, all,

How many times, when your home is too hot in summer, have you wished you could "just bottle it up", for free heat next winter?

 I was trained in architecture and began exploring simple solar heating techniques in the 1960s, despite my profs' insistances that such efforts were irrelevant, because we'd all be getting free energy from the "friendly atom" by the next decade. 

I came across this article on "This Old House" thought I should share it with everyone in case you don't already know about the HUGE incentives that are available:

Ready to take advantage of the federal government? You have until December 31. That's when Washington puts the kibosh on consumer tax credits of up to $500 for energy-saving products such as high-efficiency furnaces, water heaters, windows and insulation.

Hey Everyone,

With a the number of solar lighting options on the market, just wanted to discuss the good and bad.

Which lighting units have you used on your own homes or landscapes? Experiences?

Hope to see everyone there at West Coast Green in San Francisco, CA Thurs - Friday and Saturday of this week. (9/21-22/07)
