Green Home Remodeling

admin — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 16:10:33 +0000

What does it take to have a green home remodeling? What are the basics of making and building sustainable homes? Susan Davis from Specitrum Fine Homes gives us some hints on how to have a sustainable home on the cheap and while saving money! It’s just a reminder that going green can actually save you money while creating a healthier life for you and your family. It’s simply amazing how it’s a win win situation!

Some of her ideas for a green home remodeling are:
- Have a home energy audit, you can even get it for free through your city or through your energy company. Worst case you pay someone to come by, and even then you’ll end up saving money by finding out what holes you need to patch or windows you might need to change.
- If you’re interested in having solar energy in your home, definitely make sure to have a home energy audit before installing it, you won’t believe how much money you could save just by closing up holes. Not only that, you’ll need a much smaller solar power and you’ll end up saving money there too!
- Read the labels, find out exactly what kind of furniture you’re putting inside your home, your carpet, paint, and even cleaning products can be very toxic and could be harming your health.

Here are the kinds of services they offer, in between others: green interior design, green remodeling, green architecture and green construction.

Installing Photovoltaic Solar Power at Home

admin — Tue, 24 Aug 2010 10:51:16 +0000

This vid shows the various steps in planning and having a company (Real Goods Carlson: http://www.realgoodssolar.com/campaigns/current/affiliate/?a_aid=blimylimey&a_bid=fbb2295d) install photovoltaic solar electric power in my rear yard in San Diego; definitely more challenging than a roof installation. My rationale for this: reduce my carbon footprint, buy / own my energy (like I do my house), help address CA’s energy shortfall and take advantage of the state and US government incentives for early adopters to save on the installation.

I just uploaded it to Repower America:
