Often it is a little bit at a time and every day!

There was a family that moved into a new house.  At the end of the first week they were trying to finally get to unpacking the kitchen.  The mother put a halt to the process because she felt it was necessary to line the shelves of the cabinets.  The oldest daughter informed her that it had already been done.  Puzzled the mother asked “how?”  Here daughter informed her that she knew it would need to be done, so everyday that week when she got home she took just a minute to line a couple of shelves. That way it was easy and didn’t take a long time.

We all want to be energy efficient when building a new home.  The challenge is to make sure we stay balanced in our approach.  It is easy to get distracted by the hype and marketing of a particular product and it’s claims of energy efficiency.  The old cliché of a chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link holds very true in this arena.  There are three main components you will invest in for energy efficiency- doors, windows, insulation.  As you evaluate to upgrade and increase efficiency you want to make sure that you are improving your whole home and not just one part.  Thus the picture above.  Don’t spend a lot of resources on spray foam technology for insulation and then have entry level builders grade windows and doors.  They will be your screen doors undermining the investment you made.  Build with balance for a better home.  We are happy to help you find that balance, within your budget, for your best home.
