General Description:
This sample project is a two story colonial located in Green
Bay, WI. The home contains 1800 square foot of conditioned space
heated by an older furnace. The envelope contains no wall insulation,
single pane windows and has recorded a blower door reading of
2200 CFM @ 50 Pa. Utility records show a pattern of high energy
usage (over 2000 therms/ year for heating). A utility bill analysis
has been performed for both electric and natural gas. The furnace
and the majority of the ductwork are located in the basement.
The home is centrally cooled with a 3 ton split system installed
in 1985.
The thermostat has been set to 68F as the occupied heating temperature
and is set back to 60F for 14 hours per day. The occupied cooling
temperature is set to 72F with setbacks to 85F for 12 hours per
day.
Hot water is produced by a direct fired, natural gas, 40 gallon
hot water heater. Appliances include a clothes washer, electric
dryer, electric oven and range, two refrigerators (an older refrigerator
is located in the basement).
Improvements include: a high efficiency furnace replacement, a
cooling system replacement, air sealing, dense pack cellulose in
all exterior walls, addition of 10" of cellulose in attic over
existing fiberglass, refrigerator replacement, window replacement
and an full heating system conversion to a high efficiency boiler
with an indirect tank for domestic hot water.
Packages Included:
"Insulation & Air Sealing Only" Dense pack
insulation in walls, 10" additional cellulose insulation
in attic, air sealing (reduction from 2200CFM to 1500CFM).
"Savings from Windows Only" Includes window
replacement and infiltration reduction associated with window replacement
(estimated 500 CFM reduction)
"All Measures, Furnace option" Includes a new
furnace and all other measures including air sealing, insulation,
windows, refrigerator replacement.
