    Within the next few weeks,

    we will have another new section at HeatingHelp.com. I'm calling it "Green" and it will be very similar in function to the Library. In Green, we'll gather and catagorize PDF documents that deal with Green building- and HVAC-technology and issues, and we'll also have links to enviromentally focused websites and building products.

    I welcome your help with this project. Please email me any links you'd like to see in the new Green section, as well as any PDF documents you or your company would like to share with all of us. Look to the Library for the format.

    I think this is going to be good for all of us. Thanks for being a part of it.

    Reach me at mailroom@HeatingHelp.com

    A famous person once said

    "its not easy being green" I think it was Kermit the frog. We could all try a little harder at being green, I think its a great idea.

    Daniel???????

    I think ONLY his Mom calls him that. Great idea Dan, I will be perusing thru that and contributing where I can. We - with Mark Eathertons assisistance - will be starting a solar h.w, experiment at "This Damned!!!! House" shortly. I will record as I go along. Whether the motive is economic or "environmental" green is a good cause. Mad Dog

    This sounds...

    ... like FUN! I'll suggest a link, http://www.affordablecomfort.org/index.php
    Affordable Comfort's conference is coming up soon in Cleveland. I think it's the best single source of info you can take home and use right away. They have some really dedicated people.

    Yours, Larry

    Yup.

    I am LEED(tm) Accredited Professional. That is the last time I will say that. I hate titles especially ones that do not fit on a business card in lettering sizes that I can read :)

    NCAT

    How about the National Center for Appropriate Technology.

    www.ncat.org

    These are for-profit, but interesting. An ex co-worker used some of their stuff on his off-grid straw bale home. Anyone who ordered Thermofin in the past few years probably talked to Brian.

    I am not sure if this qualifies as a green building product to other people, but I have installed in some of these homes and it is an amazing product if used correctly.

    Another good wind turbine

    Check out the scroll type wind turbines at www.windside.com Very nice, and very efficient without any birdstrike issues.

    I'm going to send a burst of stuff in the morning when I log onto the office server in the morning, that've composed over the weekend, going straight to Dan's Mail e-mail- I hope he has a server that can take lots of Megs worth of attachments.
