Agelbert NOTE: Good advice that applies to the USA every bit as much as it applies to Australia. 👍

You don’t have to turn your house upside down to bring energy cost down.

This upside-down pyramid shows some recommended steps to increase energy efficiency. The most important thing to remember is that each step should be carried out in the correct order (1-9) to gain the maximum benefit. The first step is relatively easy, but very cost effective. As you go down the steps, the cost and difficulty of the retrofit increase.

Undertaking all nine steps will result in the ultimate energy efficient house, but rest assure that each step will bring with it some tangible benefits including lower energy bills!

This is excellent. It seems obvious, but it's nice to have the hierarchy and order in which to do these.
Good stuff, AG. thanks.


You are welcome, bro. 🌞

I'm going to need a new roof this summer so I am doing research on all the ins and outs of home maintenance. There is a metal roof I am looking at that is a bit pricy but very durable and environentally friendly (it is 100% recyclable and made mostly from recycled metal). We'll see.
