| Certified Comfort Home Making an energy efficient investment in your new home today will mean you'll have a comfortable, quiet and economical home for life. Cooperative members who are building a new home are faced with difficult decisions when considering building specifications and money-saving factors. Wabash County REMC can provide members with a Certified Comfort Home guide to assist in making those decisions. This guide, prepared for us by Association of Illinois Electric Cooperatives, is just another way of providing our members with information and construction techniques to live comfortably and economically in your home. The book covers construction techniques designed to control heat loss through radiation, conduction, and convection. Moisture control with proper insulating methods will add to the overall comfort level in your home. New construction standards are provided for floors, walls, and ceilings to minimize air pockets and allow for the complete insulation of the exterior walls. The best time to set up the appropriate heating, ventilation and air-conditioning for your home comfort is during the original construction. Additionally, your hot water heater normally has the second highest energy use and should be chosen carefully. Providing our members with the information and construction techniques to live comfortably and economically in their new homes is the objective of the Certified Comfort Home booklet. If you build or have someone build your new home using the standards and concepts in this guide, we are sure that your home will provide your family with the best comfort available with little additional investment and will also be energy efficient.
