Description
When GREEN is oversold we all lose. Home Energy Fraud is based on a true story of a home built in 2007 as "energy-efficient" and compliant with a green-build program run by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Residential Energy Services Network.
This home was inspected and rated by FOUR different experts. They all came up with FOUR different ratings and opinions as to the Energy Efficiency of the same home! If you are an energy inspector, you need to read this book because your peers are cheating. If you are a home builder, you should be outraged by unfair competition. If you are a consumer planning to build a new home soon, this book is a must read in order to save you money and prevent "GREEN Washing!" Preventing energy fraud in residential homes is achievable and is everyone's responsibility. If you believe in sustainability and making GREEN building truly mean something, then this book is a must read!
THE CONTENT OF THIS BOOK IS PEER REVIEWED AND APPROVED! COMMENTS ARE WELCOMED and can be sent to bruce.wingman@gmail.com. The author, although a third-generation home builder, was not able to build this home himself due to his employment at the time.
