-
Energy efficient construction materials; and,
-

|
The proper The proper use use of caulking around penetration points in a home’s external walls and around windows and doors; and the selection and installation of energy efficient insulation, ventilation equipment and lighting systems are just a few of the energy efficient items illustrated in the Wall. Fact sheets and Touchstone Energy brochures address a variety of additional and supplemental information on energy efficiency, including:
- Geothermal heating, cooling and water heating systems;
- Air source heat pumps;
- Compact fluorescent and LED lighting;
- Energy Star products and appliances; etc.
The “Wall” also includes DVD’s, on-line web based programs and of course, face-to-face energy expert advice from your Touchstone Energy Cooperatives.
The Wall appears at PPI member cooperatives’ Annual meetings, county fairs, trade shows and other member cooperative’s consumer-member events.
