Whole house fans
A whole-house fan, also known as an attic fan, provides great ventilation, lowers indoor temperatures and summer electric bills.
A radiant heating system uses electric cables or small tubes of hot water embedded in a concrete floor, under a tiled floor or attached to the underside of the subfloor.
Instead of heating air and circulating it throughout the house, radiant heat warms objects - carpet, furniture and even people. Less energy is needed to transfer heat directly to people, rather than fill the entire room with heated air like a forced-air furnace.
