I need help with a school project about designing an energy efficient house?
ok.so for science class, we've each been individually designing an energy efficient house. Our project has to include a drawing or a model of the house, including an explanation with seven or more design features talking about the positive and negative features about them. we MUST include a description of what the energy efficient appliances do, and include the positive features and negative features about them.
I need help with the following design features, any information would be helpful!
Double Pane windows, Solar Panels, Energy efficient lightbulbs, Water (harvesting, bathroom, kitchen, gardening)
Energy Efficient Appliances, Vegetable garden, Wind power, and rain water harvesting
we also have to choose a location as to where our house would be located and why, I chose singapore for the climate. any other info or help would be much appreaciated. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS
first of all, root around the following website: http://www.motherearthnews.com/
you should be able to address your design issues, or at least find referrals to other sources. but...singapore is unnecessary. you can go green anywhere. specifically, look into solar passive homes, they can be built ANYWHERE and still save you tons of $$ on heating and cooling costs. california, vermont, idaho, hawaii, florida, where ever you want. perhaps they're looking for physical characteristics, such as placing your home on a south facing lot if you live in the north but if your in the south or other hot climate you want to be on a north side property. another good source is the Energy Star program: http://www.energystar.gov/ that should help with appliances and stuff. understand i won't do your homework for you, but if have any other questions, i'd be glad to help just email me. good luck.
