http://www.futureproofmybuilding.com/, with their recently released book "How to Future Proof Your Home: A Guide to Building with Energy Intelligence in Cold Climates" (How to Future Proof) written by Shane Wolffe, aims to show readers how to make their homes up to 85 percent more energy efficient, even in extreme climates. The book is based on building practices that work and were pioneered in Saskatchewan, Canada - a place with one of the most extreme climates in the world where yearly temperatures range from -40°C (-40F) to 35°C (95F).
How to Future Proof uses building techniques that can help reduce heating and cooling costs, increase energy efficiency while promoting a healthier indoor air environment than what is predominately in use in construction today. Tips in How to Future Proof will help home owners lower their winter heating bill by up to 85 percent even in extreme climates where up to 40 percentof heating costs can be eliminated and lower summer cooling costs achieved as the result of a single easily implementable building consideration.
According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, electricity rates for 2013 will increase by 1.9 percent over the 2012 rates and will increase by 2.6 percent in 2014. This directly affects the target audience of Shane Wolffe's book, How to Future Proof Your Home: A Guide to Building with Energy Intelligence in Cold Climates.
Readers that live in any climate will be able to see benefits from reading How to Future Proof, not just residents of cold weather locations. By lowering dependency on fossil fuels we can help protect the environment and promote more green solutions to daily problems. According to Institute for Energy Research.org, 82 percent of the total energy consumed in the United States is derived from fossil fuels while the IER has stated fossil fuels will be the leading energy consumption producer till at least 2035.
FutureProofMyBuilding.com aims to alleviate the increased costs of heating, cooling and providing electricity to homes of readers of the book if the simple tricks, building techniques and slight changes in mindset are implemented properly.
How to Future Proof Your Home: A Guide to Building with Energy Intelligence in Cold Climates by Shane Wolffe is available now on Kindle and soon other leading Ebook formats and paperback.
