Solar Heat Tests Show Insulation Cuts Heating Costs

NBS Center for Building Technology in Gaithersburg tested a 1,200 square foot four bedroom house to document energy saving cliches. Proper insulation and weather stripping can cut heating costs up to 55 percent. Nine degree night setback saves 11.5 percent, nine percent with colder nights. First Lady Pat Nixon and Virginia Knauer toured the facility. Tests used a 3 module house built by Hercuform Inc. in an environmental chamber. Future tests include solar heat collectors on south roofs.
