What better way to celebrate Earth Day (coming up next week!) than incorporating these energy-saving tips into your home? 🌎
But there are ways to solve those issues with a focus on making a home environmentally efficient, which can cut down on expenses and make it more sustainable as the years go on.
Here are five tips to make your home more environmentally friendly, according to Chris Bolio of Alair Homes Houston.This includes making sure attic decking and exterior garage walls are insulated. “By protecting all your home mechanicals and plumbing within your insulation system, you will save energy and your home will be more protected from damage during extreme weather occurrences,” Bolio said.These materials better regulate temperatures, last longer because of the way they minimize mildew and rotting, and with other construction materials either rising in prices or backlogged in terms of orders, they are more attainable than ever.
In addition, using paints and plywoods that don’t have harmful chemicals can help a home last longer. “This means making sure you’re only sourcing materials from countries that don’t use harmful chemicals in their products,” Bolio said. “Become more educated and mindful about the types and use of chemicals in all our products.”Bolio said using PEX piping has countless advantages over traditional copper or CPVC.
