Energy-Efficient and Attractive Renovations Options for Medford Homes and Businesses
This upstairs living room in Medford offered some aesthetic features that were desireable to retain as we brought it from the doldrums of the 1960s to a bright and cheery space that invites relaxed communicaton and a home-away-from-home experience. We wanted to take full advantage of the breath-taking view offered by the fenestrations and the feeling of more space conveyed by the exposed ceiling structure. However, these features can also allow for significant heat gain/loss, yielding a space that is hot in summer, cold in winter, and lowers the energy efficiency of the entire home.
Potential Benefits of Home Renovation
Keeping an eye on sustainability and lowering heating and cooling costs, solar roof panels can be added, and the glazing upgraded to Energy Star rated windows. In addition to generating electricity and being eligible for tax incentives, solar panels also reduce the amount of heat reaching the roof. The process of removing the interior wall paneling to replace with drywall offers the opportunity to add insulation. Costs can be reduced further by refinishing wood flooring in place rather than replacing. The overall benefits of a well-planned renovation like this are lower energy bills and a cool, comfortable, get-away space, perfect for entertaining, reading, or just relaxing.
