Cold Feed, Warm Energy Audits

In keeping with the spirit of President Obama's recovery program, we decided to do an energy audit on our house.

Today, HomeGreenHome took a look at our energy saving opportunities. There were no big surprises -- add more insulation in the attic (oh, and after we have it rewired to remove the knob and tube wiring, of course) and caulk the windows and doors.

The one thing I like about this company's program is their cost/return focus. Yes, I need new windows, but on an ROI basis, that will be the last thing. I should get the details on all the recommendations in a week or so -- and I'll share anything exciting.

Desired outcome -- a warm enough first floor that Grandson (and Grandma!) does not have to wear his coat in the house any more!
