Just read an article from Time magazine about “greening” up President Lincoln’s old cottage. The house which is a national monument achieved a Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council, but still kept 98% of the existing home.
When most people think of a green home they think of a new home, but with about 100 million existing homes a major impact can be made by making them more earth friendly.
A major contributor to making a existing home green is indoor air quality. Improving indoor air quality is also probably one of the easiest, and least expensive ways to make your home more healthy and earth friendly.
A great starting point to save energy is a programmable thermostat. An Aprilaire programmable thermostat installed costs less then a night out on the town. Plus in a short period of time you will have saved more money on your heating and cooling bills than you dished out to put it in.
