Chuck Renfro,
ReplyDeleteThis is a different type of question. I hope your memory is better than mine! You installed infloor heating in our home in the fall of 1992 and I am needing to know the type/name of tubing you used; mainly to find out how high we can set the water temperature. It is dual, black. It was for a large ranch house on the old Abbott Loop Rd in Anchorage. Builder was The Petersen Group and our last names are Chesnut and Lunoe.
You also installed an indoor "snorkel wooden tub" in our winter garden that is heated by a heat exchanger (the first for you, if I remember correctly). I really appreciate any help you can give.
Have a good holiday,
Cheryl Chesnut
I have a questions regarding changes in standards for the home energy rating system. Specifically, If a house built in 1996 was rated as a 5* at the time, is it reasonable that it would still be a 5* under the current standards assuming the house has been maintained and has no deferred maintenance issue?

Chuck or?
ReplyDeleteIs it possible to determine, from my energy rating, what the BTU loss of my home would be at 50F above zero?
The current AKWarm rating is five star with a BTU load at 53,300 BTU per hour.
Thank you
Allen
