Well, I have hinted at it in a couple of posts and now I am making the big announcement! To kick off 2009 with a BANG TurningHoustonGreen is bringing you 9 part Web Seminar series on how to Green Up an Existing Home!
First off I would like to Thank Michael Strong with Brothers Strong for helping to make this happen. You may know Michael from Greenhaus Builders- The Builder of Houston’s First LEED Home in Houston or if you tune in to 950 am on Sunday mornings from 9-12 he is the Co-Host of the Home Improvement Hotline. Regardless, he is Houston’s leading expert on Green Building and Remodeling.
This series is a spin off from the Hypothetical Remodel series that was completed not so long ago here at TurningHoustonGreen.com- If you would like to read through the entire series, you can find the E-Book on it here: Click Here To Read The 7 Part Series
When considering to ‘Green Up’ and Existing Home first and foremost should be an Energy Audit. So that is where we are starting in the series. How to get an Energy Audit to prioritize what Energy Upgrades should be performed first to help get you the biggest bang for your buck with Energy Efficiency.
