Retrofitting is wonderful. We just need more education about it

This video gave me a taste of HeatSpring's level of detail and innovation before signing up for a paid course. My wife and I just purchased a balloon-framed 1885 Queen Anne in southern Wisconsin, whose existing conditions (insulation, systems...) I will begin documenting as soon as we move in. As an Owner/Builder and green energy enthusiast, I'm eager to learn about conventional and unconventional (for 2023) options for decreasing our utility bill and carbon footprint while increasing year-round comfort in Climate Zone 6.

Excellent look at what you can do with an existing house in a cold climate. Lots of detail to ponder.

I love Mark's attention to detail, and even though this was a brief overview of a DE retrofit, he gave me confidence that I am in good training hands, for instance, in mentioning the flashing and critter guard details at the bottom of the exterior-mounted trusses. Thank you, Heatspring, for making this a freebie.

The case study is an eye-opener on how I can help Nigeria decrease her carbon footprint.

good

Easy to learn

This is a great real life example of making green improvements to a home

Must have video. All info in one place.

Informative and empowering to meet energy efficiency needs of future home owners of the 21st century.

Case study demonstration was so good with hand drawing for easier understanding. Good Job, provide much more similar case study if possible in future.

This is a great quick overview of a deep energy retrofit. It gave me some ideas to research.

This was one of the best simple informative qualitative and quantitative short videos on the deep E retrofit side of construction.

Interesting, practical and very clear.

Good Caurse

Yes, I learn more knowledge about the retrofit

Yes

I would suggest this course to anyone interested or getting into deep energy retro fits

This is a fantastic presentation that will inspire home owners to do the "next right thing" for our global communtity.

No Thank You

Informative story about a growing N. American need.

Marc touches upon most of the important considerations in this short case study and is engaging in the process. He left me, a novice in energy efficient building, wanting to continue my education for personal and professional reasons.

Thank you! I have invested my career in Architecture and Project Management. Since 2009, I've added to the thrills, Energy Efficiency. Now I'm ready to rock the world! Thanks Heat Spring for these wonderful Courses!

enjoyable

This course is helping me with my degree in Applied Design Sciences and my future career in sustainable design. You have to see applications applied so you can understand how things work and the steps to completion and this series of videos showed additional information that I was not aware of like external insulating and solar and geothermal panel location and the differences but most importantly the almost 0 carbon foot print obtainable. The most interesting new product was the Wood Pulp Bricks that you can burn and how you can calculate the usage more accurately but using something that is measured in weight and burns efficiently.

yes can be recommended

good introduction

It was worth my time

enjoyed the course
