Re: I'm looking for idea's to make my home energy efficient
I'm in South Carolina.
The home is my wife's ancestral home, so we will have this till we die! Right now, it's just me and my wife in this 2858 sq ft home. We plan on renovating the house and converting the upstairs into an apartment. Budget...something less than $100,000. The main idea's that I'm looking for are new energy efficient products and equipment that can be installed during the renovation. One particular problem is insulation. The walls are not insulated at all, the exterior siding is ship-lap and the interior walls are tounge and groove horizontal boards. No plaster, no drywall, just wood. Everything is wood!!!
