By: Uchenna Ani-Okoye | - You think you dust your rooms regularly, and you don't ever miss vacuuming the room so you are living in a house which is clean and healthy. Think again.

- Net-zero Green Remodeling Possible For Old Homes
By: SA HOME | - Green remodeling has always had its extremes. If you've ever been in a 1970's-era "earthship," you know that energy conservation can go much further than good insulation and solar panels. Composting toilets, hydroponic vegetable gardens, and rainwater collection systems can allow you to live completely off the grid, if you so choose. But until recently, few people ventured close to this territory--or thought about it.

There's much to be said for installing solar panels and letting the sun take the sting our of your power bills, but you have a good point. Roofs festooned with photovoltaic (PV) panels won't win many prizes for colonial ...

- Energy Retrofit For An Old House
By: SA HOME | - Retrofitting an old house so it approaches the energy performance of a new one is tremendously challenging. Blowing cellulose or fiberglass into wall cavities is a big improvement over no insulation at all, but it's really only a start. Many older homes would benefit from more aggressive measures, especially as the price of energy continues to go up.
Other than cost (these renovations can get expensive), one of the biggest obstacles is finding a way to add lots of insulation to exte ...

- Green Remodeling Hoped To Assist In Industry Rebound
By: SA HOME | - Home improvement isn't what it used to be, but for the green building industry, that's actually good news.

- In Summer, It Can Be Cool To Be Green
By: SA HOME | - My 1963 tri-level has radiant boiler heat and no ducts for central air. While Colorado summers get well into the 90s, my husband and I generally retreat to the basement to get cool rather than install a window-mounted air conditioner--or an evaporative "swamp" cooler, like so many of our neighbors have.
We haven't settled on a good eco-solution for cooling our old house. But every year, it seems the options get better for green remodelers. As the mercury rises, my mind can't help bu ...

- Use History As Your Green Remodeling Guide
By: SA HOME | - One of the best things about old homes is their history. Every house has a story, and when you're planning a remodel, sometimes you can't help but wonder what the house was like when it was first built. What was the original vision? Did an architect create a unique plan? Or was your home modeled after a plan found in a pattern book, or was it assembled from a Sears, Roebuck and Co. mail-order kit?

- What The Passive House Standard Could Mean For Your Old House
By: SA HOME | - Is it possible to retrofit a 160-year-old home so that it requires no mechanical heating? A builder is trying to do just that in Boston using the Passive House standard, a German-borne set of energy efficiency principles dating back to the late 1980s.
"The Passive House approach is very techie, which I think is its Achilles Heel--it appeals to geeks but not the layman, the lay builder," builder Simon Hare told CNET News last month. "We can prove we can do this without hiring consult ...

- Refinish Your Old Home's Hardwoods The Green Way
By: SA HOME | - When you bought your old house, its wood floors could have been in any condition: painted, badly scuffed or perfectly preserved under carpet.

- Green Remodeler Goes Behind The Drywall To Connect With Customers
By: SA HOME | - The selling points of green-remodeled homes are sometimes hard to get other people excited about--and sell. You can't see superior insulation and, honestly, new windows and doors look like new windows and doors regardless of their R-values.
So how do you compete against the neat old house for sale down the block that sports all the conventional (and not-so-green) high-end finishes that people love?

- Radiators: Working Hard (and Green) For 150 Years
By: SA HOME | - In England, radiators are as ubiquitous as the corner pub. And they make sense for the climate: it's always a little rainy there and radiators make it easy to hang wet items to dry.
