It’s not easy going green, to paraphrase Kermit the Frog. I know why we procrastinate when it comes to home repairs. The chaos is sometimes overwhelming.
We just finished using Dr. Energy Saver to seal our dormer crawl spaces, and condition our attic. A world of difference in the temperatures on our upper floor. We decided to do the Super Attic. Massive difference.
Before.
After.
With a 40 degree difference in temperatures. No more drafts down the stairs. No more cold bedrooms.
We have been slowly working our way through the tasks necessary to make our house “greener”. A warmer, better place to live, while saving energy. It’s been an eleven year journey and we are almost done.
Insulating crawl spaces, too. Before we started the massive painting job. Which will go on for at least a month.
The study is close to being finished. Just need to add the new carpet, now that we insulated under the floor (above the garage).
Dr. Energy Saver in Glen Burnie is part of a national chain. They are one of the sponsors of our county Greenfest, and they do energy audits. They have no idea I am blogging about them, and I don’t take advertising dollars. If you want to go greener, and make your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer, you might want to check them out, wherever you live.
Now, for us, on to the rest of the painting and repairs.
