Energy Tip

Top Ten Tips for Heating Your Home, from Bion Howard’s web site http://www.energybuilder.com/ 

“Tip #2 - Install (a) set-back digital (programmable) thermostat on your heating system or heat pump. Every degree of set “back” for heating may save up to 8% on central heating energy usage.” (Bion’s #1 Tip - “Obtain an energy audit…”)



Benefits of the Green Home Process

The individual components of your home work together as a system, each part affecting the performance of the other. So the amount of air leakage and insulation in a home affects how hard the heating and cooling system must work.

Most contractors look at only one or two components, so the solutions they provide don't fix the whole problem.

Our integrated approach and diagnostic testing creates comprehensive solutions that provide REAL home improvement.
