Energy Audit Results

On Tuesday, May 18th, we completed an energy audit. By we, I mean Alex and I. She greeted the gentleman, Clarke, from MassSave who performed the actual audit. We have mostly CFLs, although not the fancy dimming ones. We're pretty energy efficient, minus the single-paned windows and carbon monoxide emissions from our heater in the basement. 

The heater puts out between 5000-6900 PPM (that's parts per million if you didn't know), which is terrible considering carbon monoxide levels shouldn't go over 100 PPM.  Our CO levels were between 4900-6800 PPM higher than they're supposed to be and above the legal limit. Our gas is currently shut off to the heater. At least we still have hot water.  Thank goodness it is not the winter or we would have been colder than we already were. 

It's been fun, ya'll. Catch you on the flip side. 

M. & A.
