- A unit of measuring electrical energy equal to 1,000 watts of power consumed over an hour.
- Solid-state lighting (SSL) technology uses semi-conducting materials to convert electricity into light.
- The U.S. Green Building Council Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating System™ is a nationally accepted benchmark.
- A particulate filter, usually in the 30–40% efficiency range when measured using the atmospheric dust spot test.
- Stands for Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value.
- Microwaves are a form of electromagnetic radiation; that is, they are waves of electrical and magnetic energy moving together through space.
- A home-energy alternative or addition to gas and utility electric.
- Often used in hot, humid climates, a pier foundation lifts a house up off the ground reducing health hazards from direct soil contact.
- A graph used to determine the moisture content and energy of air at different temperatures.
- How effective is your insulation?
- Radiant cooling cools a floor or ceiling by absorbing the heat radiated from the rest of the room.
- Forced air heating is not the only option.
- A slowly spinning wheel typically made of corrugated material (metal, plastic or treated paper) tightly stacked; used in some heat or energy recovery ventilators to transfer heat and moisture between two airstreams.
- Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER).
- A measurement, that does not include latent heat recovery, used in determining the amount of energy passed between airstreams in a heat or energy recovery ventilator.
- Sheathing adds strength and wind resistance to house walls, and is now made in a variety of materials.
- Structural insulated panels (SIPs) are high performance building panels used in floors, walls, and roofs for residential and light commercial buildings.
- Solid-state lighting (SSL) technology uses semi-conducting materials to convert electricity into light. Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are an example.
- Thermographic inspection measures surface temperatures using infrared light (light that is in the heat spectrum) to detect temperature variations of the building's "skin", showing warmer areas in lighter colors and cooler areas in darker colors.
- A measurement that includes latent heat recovery, used in determining the amount of energy passed between airstreams in a heat or energy recovery ventilator.
