"It took five months to get the job completed. While the project was underway, I had to call a meeting to address the lack of progress on completion. Craig actually told me that he and his wife were concerned that I wasn't going to pay them. Craig was dishonest with me concerning the hold up. He told me the factory was the issue. My wife has a contact at the factory and was able to find out that Craig was late putting in his order with our windows and apparently had a couple of other issues before the windows would be produced and shipped. I can't begin to tell you how offended I was from being lied to and accused of being a deadbeat.. I had begun making calls to find another contractor to complete the work. Once Craig corrected the work that the building inspector noted that needed to be brought into compliance with code, Craig was paid within 48 hours. I have had a couple of warranty issues and one repair (not warranty related). Craig's company has refused to take any calls from me or my wife. As a result, I've been working with different contractor with regards to my windows. The factory and the other contractor have been decent to work with."

Energy Efficiency Auditing questions, answered by experts

There is no blanket figure for a residential home’s electrical load, since load varies by the size of the home, how many appliances are used, and the efficiency of their electrical systems. Typically, however, it’s safe to assume 40 to 60 amps is the average electrical load of a residential home. 

Blower door tests are measured in a few different ways, but the most popular are air changes per hour (ACH) and cubic feet of air (CFM) moving through the house per hour. A good ACH score is less than 2ACH, but 1ACH is better. This means the house experiences a total air change within 60 minutes (for 1ACH). For 2ACH, there’s a complete change every 30 minutes, and so on. CFM scores are similar in that a lower score means less air change, and therefore less leakage.

Setting your AC unit to 78 degrees can, indeed, help you save energy. In fact, according to experts, every degree you turn the unit up could save you between 1% and 3% on your energy bills. That said, turning your unit off entirely while you’re out might actually be less efficient than keeping it on at a higher temperature. Why? The unit will need to work extra hard to cool the house back off again after all those hot hours. 

Gas fireplaces use either natural gas or propane—both of which will increase your energy expenses. On average, running a gas fireplace costs $400 to $640 per year; however, these costs can vary significantly depending on the fuel price in your area and the frequency of fireplace use. If you’re looking for a more energy-efficient option, consider switching to an electric fireplace.

Yes, barndominiums are energy-efficient as long as insulation professionals properly install quality insulation, windows, and doors. Utility bills for barndo living can be up to 50% lower than those for a traditional home.  Make your barndo more energy efficient by working with contractors and HVAC professionals to strategically place windows, doors, and heating/cooling systems.
