Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6698911
A ranch house built in 1952 with conventional frame construction was converted to an office and conference facility utilizing a variety of conservation and renewable energy technologies. The facility is located on the property of the Windstar Foundation in Snowmass, Colorado. The original 4670 sq. ft. ranch house was heated with oil and poorly insulated. The focus of this grant is to demonstrate effective retrofit techniques which can be applied to energy inefficient building stock. The retrofitted facility is 7400 sq. ft. and is heated with solar energy and a small amount of wood. The total amount awarded was $25,786. Additional expenses to complete the project were provided by the Windstar Foundation.
