Making your older home energy efficient doesn’t mean you have to get rid of running water or your adt security system – a few simple changes can really reduce your energy footprint and make you feel better about your drain on the environment
New Insulation – If you suspect your home is leaking energy you may want to have a home energy audit. If leaks in the foundation and within walls are detected you’ll want to invest in spray insulator, a better solution than typical foam insulation.
New Rood – If it’s time for a new roof you’ll want to get shingles certified by Energy-Star. Not only will you receive up to a 30 back tax credit you’ll be saving yourself money in the long run by better insulating your roof against the elements.
New Flooring – Don’t replace old floors if you don’t need to but if you do, remember that some floors are more energy efficient than others. If you like the look of wood opt for eco-friendly bamboo flooring and if you’re all about tile purchase some salvaged, refurbished stones.
