Description
The age of cheap energy is in its repulsive, unedifying death throes, and energy costs will increase relentlessly in the future as demand outstrips supply. Energy-saving measures in the home will, therefore, become ever more cost-effective throughout lifetimes. This book is packed full of useful information and tips for the professional and the layperson.
The book covers every aspect of the efficient consumption of energy in the home including the position of the dwelling; its method of construction and the materials used; energy rating and the legal framework; insulation and U-values; windows and doors; conservatories, sunrooms and loft conversions; heating and hot-water systems; lighting and making the best use of daylight; ventilation; renewable energy technologies; appliances, gadgets and housekeeping; the wider environmental issues including water economy and recycling.
