Enhancing the energy efficiency of your homes not only cuts down your monthly energy bills but does a lot of good to the environment as well. Therefore, enhancing home efficiency appears to be a smart move. Professional insulators offer services to gauge the energy efficiency in your house and to recommend appropriate actions.
Home efficiency reports prepared by such professional insulators allow the homeowners to employ various means to increase the Energy Efficiency of their living space. One of the extensively used method of attaining maximum energy efficiency is by installing adequate insulation. Cellulose installation is considered to be one of the best choices due to the various benefits offered by it.
Cellulose is available in a wide variety of forms to suit the type of insulation in a particular space. Loose-fill cellulose is used for filling in the crevices and holes in walls and ceilings. This variant of cellulose is generally used for retrofitting old buildings, and is utilized as an insulation option for new constructs as well.
Applied cellulose or wet spray is used for wall insulation in new buildings. This type of cellulose insulation leads to better sealing and does not require regular maintenance. The problems caused by moisture is taken care of by a moisture retardant chemical that restricts any kind of organic growth on the insulation material.
Stabilized cellulose is another alternative for insulation of ceilings. Extra moisture added to the preparation not only provides for better adhesion to the structure but also reduces the amount of cellulose needed for insulation, thereby preventing any possible fall-off later.
Being a natural plant product, cellulose can be recycled as well. As a result, cellulose insulation is slowly gaining ground as an eco-friendly option. The presence of boric acid, which is added during treatment, makes cellulose insulation fire-retardant, thereby improving its effectiveness.
Cellulose does not pose any health or environmental threats either during installation or later, unlike its synthetic counterparts. Not only this, cellulose is an easily available product, therefore cellulose insulation can be manufactured locally as well. There is no proven side-effect or health hazard that accompany Cellulose Insulation, therefore making it a safe option to opt for.
Therefore, by using cellulose insulation you can increase your savings by enhancing the thermal performance of your house. Not only this, you can also control pests and mold growth. Thus, using such measures you can increase your overall Home Efficiency manifolds.

ac unit... I want to put a window ac unit in my dog house?
Has anyone done this? I can't think of anything that would go wrong. I would use outside electrical cord of proper gauge. Protect it with conduit. Put the window ac unit in the custom window I will cut out in my dog house. build a cage so my dog can't get to the unit. (chicken wire or somthing) Possibly fix a breaker or fuse of some sorts just in case. Probably have to clean out dog hair daily from filter as not to plug it up with debrie and dog hair. Can this be done? Is there anything I'm not looking at? Am I going to kill myself or my dog? Also I was wondering if my 5000 btu unit would freeze up being a small dog house? It's way hot though and the dog house isn't very insulated. The door is just a clear vinyle flappy door. Thanks
You must realy love your dog.
Yes, this can be done safely.
Don't use a GFCI!
Do add a power disconnect at the doghouse.
The unit will only freeze up if it has a low charge or if the condenser coil is very dirty.
If you set the thermostat low, you won't freeze your dog.
