This week on the Green Building Show we continue our investigation into the energy efficient home. Carlos Martinez sits down with Steve King, a senior lecturer of architecture at the University of New South Wales, to find out the key drivers of energy efficiency within a home. Download “The Energy Efficient Home – the ultimate design guide” here: http://www.lighthome.com.au/green-guide-blog/the-energy-efficiency-home-the-ultimate-design-guide

We hear from Victoria Lea who brings us found some designers taking green living to a whole new level with a range of green jewelry, and we kick off our Tropical Housing Series with an interview with Peter Pierce, the designer of an award winning and sustainable tree house in Cairns.

And later, we will address a question from a reader who’s looking for a way to get her neighbors excited about solar. We speak with solar industry expert Ged McCarthy who presents us the business case for solar in a home.

These are ten most promising alternative energy sources of tomorrow. In physics, energy is a property of objects which can be transferred to other objects or converted into different forms. Solar is the Latin word for sun-a powerful source of energy that can be used to heat, cool, and light our homes and businesses. As businesses prepare for a carbon-constrained future the bloom energy server offers a clean reliable and affordable solution to meet a customer’s sustainability needs. There is abundance of energy on earth but these corporations and their profit based systems wont allow anyone to produce cheap energy.

The Power Innovator Program is a step-by-step system that takes just 1-2 hours to build, with a helping hand. It was designed by Prof. Richard Goran to help people generate electricity in their own homes and thus save hundreds of dollars on the electricity bills. The device can also be carried around to use when you need, without any hassles.

It is very cost-effective as you just need about to buy the required parts from any electric store. If required, you can also scale up if you need more electricity by spending about 0 more for expensive parts to power up your entire house. This however is nothing compared to the amount of free electricity you will be able to enjoy for years.

Prof. Goran got his motivation for the Power Innovator Program from the inventions of Nikola Tesla. Power Innovator Program is a complete instructional video program that teaches consumers how to create a Power Innovator Program wherein you consume more energy for a lower fee. In the process, you save up to 82% or more off your electrical bills.

In this episode of the On the Job series, Larry Janesky, owner and founder of Dr. Energy Saver, walks us through the many ways they made a typical cape house more energy efficient.

This cape had poor attic insulation and serious air leakage, which increased the homeowner’s energy bills and caused serious ice damming problems during the winter. As the snow melted on the roof, a ridge of ice forced trapped water to leak into the house. The water damage to the attic and living area raised health and mold concerns. The problem was so significant that during an especially heavy winter storm in the previous year, the homeowner had to climb on the roof and manually break the large ice ridges to keep water from pouring down his kitchen cabinets.

To fix this problem, Dr. Energy Saver completely air sealed the attic to keep heated air in the living space from leaking into the attic. The bathroom fans that were venting into the attic were fitted with ducts to vent to the outside, thus preventing all the air and moisture from leaking into the attic space.

Cape style homes like this one usually have a knee wall space. It is a small space created at the angle between the roof and the floor. A knee wall is usually a big source of energy waste. So the next step was to insulate and air seal the knee wall using a special type of rigid foam board insulation called SilverGlo™, which is lined with a radiant barrier to help conserve heat.

The last step was to insulate the attic, which was originally insulated with a thin layer of fiberglass batt insulation, which measures way below the R-60 value recommended by the U.S. Department of Energy for attics in that region. Besides having insufficient R-Value, fiberglass insulation does not stop air flow.

To insulate this attic, Dr. Energy Saver chose TruSoft™ cellulose insulation. Cellulose insulation is basically recycled newspaper that’s treated with borax to prevent pest infestation and mold growth, and fire retardants which give the material an excellent fire safety rating. Cellulose insulation is denser than blown fiberglass and has a higher R-Value of 3.7 per inch. A layer of 17 inches was blown into the attic, with special attention to rafter bays and small cavities created by typical cape style architectural features.

This cape is now ready for winter. The homeowner has a more comfortable house, and his energy bills are much lower.
