1985 Residential Occupant Survey-Telephone
The purpose of the survey was to collect information from residential occupants related to the use and conservation of electrical energy in Pacific Northwest residences. This report documents the development, implementation, and results of the survey. For most of the residences in the survey, information was collected on the thermal integrity of the residence; the capital stock of electrical equipment and appliances used by the occupants; various energy-use related behaviors such as conservation measures undertaken, the use of wood burning equipment, indoor temperature settings, and day-to-day occupancy patterns; the occupants' attitudes about electricity prices; and various demographic indices such as the age, sex, and education of the occupants. For some residences, information also was collected on the age and size of the residence; the space and water heating fuels used in the residence; and the number and income of the occupants.
