SUMMARY:Acton Clean Energy Home Tour: A 1793 Farmhouse Goes Energy Efficient!
DESCRIPTION:Clean Energy Home Tour: \nMay Focus on Energy Updates to an Historic House \n  \nRegister HERE. \n  \nDo you have an older home? A larger home? Are you thinking about replacing your oil or gas furnace with high-efficiency air source heat pumps? Interested to know how solar panels can help with electrical costs? Come visit this historic property\, with a large 1793 farmhouse\, and learn about the steps taken to make this home more energy efficient\, including new insulation\, windows\, air source heat pumps and solar panels. Your hosts are eager to share what worked\, what was less successful\, and what actions other residents might tackle first in their own homes. This is a great opportunity to explore the unique energy challenges that come with homes built in other eras. Plus\, it is an awesome property that many of us drive past every day! \nWe are optimistic that an official Acton Clean Energy Coach will also be on hand for these tours. There will be a 10:00am session and a 1:00pm session. As usual\, coffee and snacks will be on hand\, along with the latest resources from EnergizeActon.org\, including the most up-to-date information on incentives. \n  \nRegister HERE. \n  \nWhen: Saturday\, May 10th with a 10:00am tour and a 1:00pm tour.  \nWhere: Acton Historic District (Address sent upon registration.) \nThe technologies you will see in this home include: \n\n27 panel rooftop solar system;\n3 air source heat pumps (ducted);\nEnergy Recovery Ventilators (ERV);\nUltra efficient heat pump hot water heater;\nRehabilitated historical windows with storms;\nInduction stove and energy star appliances;\nEV (2017 Tesla) and level 2 car charger;\nFireplace with top sealing damper and makeup air vent;\n24W backup generator with critical-loads electrical panel; and\nWater conservation measures inside and out.\n\nAfter registration you will receive an email with the house address and specific information about parking\, etc. Thank you for your interest! \n  \nEnergizeActon.org is co-sponsored by the Acton Climate Coalition and the Town of Acton Sustainability Office.  \nDo you have ideas or a talent you would like to contribute?
