General Description
Sample project is based upon an older style trailer located in
Concord, NH. This 890 square foot trailer was built in 1970 and
has had a wood frame sloped roof added. It employs the original
furnace, minimal wall insulation, single pane windows and has recorded
a blower door of 2000 CFM @ 50 Pa. A utility bill analysis has NOT
been performed. The trailer employs no cooling system.
The thermostat is set to 62F as the occupied heating temperature
and is set back to 58F for 12 hours per day (based upon homeowner
interview).
Hot water is produced by an electric 30 gallon hot water heater.
Appliances include an electric oven, range, and the original 1970
refrigerator.
Improvements modeled include: a high efficiency furnace replacement,
air sealing, roof insulation upgrade, new windows, air sealing,
a new propane-fired hot water heater and a health & safety improvement
named "Flash patch roof".
Packages Include:
"Insulation and Air Sealing Only" – calculates
the savings from targeted air sealing and dense packing the roof
cavity insulation.
"All Measures"- Includes insulation, new furnace, window
replacement, new propane-fired water heater, air sealing and flash
patching of the roof (health & safety).
"All Measures Except Windows" – same as above except
windows are not included in the package.
