		<description><![CDATA[Low-emittance &#8211; or Low-E &#8211; windows are an increasingly common way to control temperature within the building envelope. Traditionally, windows were accepted as being &#8220;energy losers&#8221; &#8211; they lacked the insulation found in the rest of the building frame, so they were prime locations for heat to escape in winter or for cool air to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Along with weatherstripping, caulking is one of two essential techniques for sealing air leaks in your home. It is ideal for sealing gaps that don&#8217;t open and shut &#8211; for instance, where your fireplace or an air vent is built into the wall. It works best where cracks or gaps are less than Â¼ inch [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[  When you conduct over 3000 Home Energy Audits per year you&#8217;re bound to run into some interesting opinions. Many people believe certain things about home energy consumption that are just not true. These &#8220;Energy Myths&#8221; have often been inherited from one generation to the next. &#8220;Grandma always said&#8230;&#8221; is the typical preface to many [...] ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In buildings that use the sun as a heating source, the most important element of design is a southerly exposure, and windows are the most common form.
Window Position
Your windows must face south so the sun has maximum exposure into the house, although you will lose only about 10% of the potential solar radiation by placing [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An essential component of conserving energy is keeping conditioned air in your house and keeping unconditioned air out, meaning that in the winter hot air doesn&#8217;t escape and in the summer cool air doesn&#8217;t escape. Insulation plays a role in keeping your house warm too, but regular fiberglass insulation does not stop the flow of [...]]]></description>
