1000 Home Challenge

198 Pond Rd Bridgton ME

We’re glad to have Linda Wigington,  the founder of the THC, The Thousand Home Challenge as our guest again this Tuesday night.  She’ll be glad to answer all your questions. What is it?  How does it work?  How is it different from other programs?  Who developed it? Could my home possibly qualify?

We’ll use one of our own houses that’s just starting the renovation process to see how it measures up: 198 Pond Road in Bridgton, Maine.

We’ve got most of the demolition done and are starting to move walls around and change the floor plan… as we always do.  Now it’s time to get serious on exactly how far we are going to shoot for in energy savings.

So far we have committed and have ripped out the old way oversized and leaky HVAC system.   Now what?  We are discussing saving some money with interior storms and foregoing the new rigid insulation on the walls…. Will that leave us with enough options to achieve the deep reductions that we are looking for? In Maine?

We’ll look for the answers with Linda as she unfolds her THC spreadsheet and we plug in the various options from this project.  Don’t miss this opportunity to see Linda and I working with “Live Ammunition.”
