More Living Planet Community tips!

More Living Planet Community tips!

For our July contest, we're asking our Living Planet Community what they do to help conserve our environment.

Check out what Parkside Living Planet Community group member efficientN is doing to help conserve our planet:

"I just built a house this year and we built it with ICFs (insulated concrete forms) with an R40 rating. 

The amount of heat loss out of a conventional-framed house compared to the little-to-no heat loss of our house is crazy.

Also, we installed radiant heat with a 95% efficiency-on-demand propane water heater, which was an investment, but in the long run, we will consume a lot less heat.

We're so happy we built green with our new house - it's definitely worth it."

Great ideas for those looking to build more efficiently! Just think of the money you will save in the long run!
