Abstract

This project was part of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) Deep Energy Retrofit (DER) Project which included several other homes in addition to the the subject of this study. Some of the reports and presentations included in this dataset cover the whole DER project. The retrofit home was one of several homes in the DER project. The goal of this monitoring plan is to develop a protocol for monitoring the SMUD DER project and answer the following major questions: 1. Is heat pump water heater performing as expected? 2. Is the whole house energy as expected? 3. Based on monitored results, how can performance be improved in future retrofit projects?

Phased Retrofits in Existing Homes in Florida Phase I: Shallow and Deep Retrofits

Dataset Beal, David ; Parker, Danny ; Sutherland, Karen ; ...

The U.S. Department of Energy's Building America research team Building America Partnership for Improved Residential Construction is collaborating with Florida Power & Light (FPL) to conduct a phased residential energy-efficiency retrofit program. This research seeks to establish impacts on annual energy and peak energy reductions from the technologies applied at two levels of retrofit-shallow and deep-with savings levels that approach the Building America program goal of reducing whole-house energy use by 40%.

Greenbuilt Construction Energy Efficiency Retrofit House Demonstration - Sacramento

Dataset Sparn, B ; Hudon, K ; Earle, L ; ...

One of the homes that was part of Sacramento Municipal Utility District's (SMUD) Energy Efficiency Retrofit Demonstration (EERD) project was a 1980's era home in Fair Oaks, California, referred to as the Greenbuilt house, as Greenbuilt Construction completed the retrofit of the home. The home underwent an extensive energy efficiency retrofit with a goal of achieving a 50% reduction in energy use to demonstrate the potential for other builders and homeowners in the area. The retrofit measures included installing: ENERGY STAR appliances high efficiency light roof radiant barrier additional ceiling and wall insulation double-pane, low-e windows external motorized shading andmore »« less
Evaluation of Early Performance Results for Massachusetts Homes in the National Grid Pilot Deep Energy Retrofit Program

Dataset Neuhauser, Ken ; Gates, Cathy

In 2009, National Grid started a DER pilot program that offered technical support and financial incentives to qualified Massachusetts homeowners who planned and successfully completed a retrofit that incorporated the performance requirements and goals of the National Grid DER measures package. This DER measures package, developed through collaboration with Building Science Corporation (BSC), includes specific thermal and airtightness goals for the enclosure components as well as health, safety, durability, and indoor air quality requirements. By providing measures that can be included with common renovation activities such as roof replacement, window replacement, re-siding, basement remediation, and remodeling, this DER measures packagemore »« less
Evaluating an Exterior Insulation and Finish System for Deep Energy Retrofits

Dataset Dentz, Jordan ; Podorson, David

This report provides a case study of a deep energy retrofit using a site-applied exterior insulation and finish system (EIFS). Prefabricated EIFS panels are also discussed as a potential wall insulation retrofit solution. EIFSs are common in new and retrofit commercial construction. Such products typically consist of five layers installed over the top of a water resistive barrier as follows: (1) Adhesive (2) Foam insulation (3) Base coat (4) Reinforcing mesh embedded in the base coat (5) Top or finish coat. They can be applied to new or existing buildings that employ wood or masonry construction, and can utilize anmore »« less
Retrofitting a 1960s Split-Level Cold-Climate Home

Dataset Puttagunta, Sriknath

The U.S. Department of Energy Building America research team Consortium for Advanced Residential Buildings (CARB) partnered with Preferred Builders, a previous CARB partner and builder of the Performance House (DOE 2013) and the owners of a 1960s split-level home in Westport, Connecticut, to evaluate and implement a cost-effective solution package that met the requirements of 30% source energy savings compared to the pre-retrofit performance. This home had already been updated aesthetically (kitchen and bathrooms), so the owners wanted the energy-efficiency measures to be as non-disruptive to the interior finishes as possible.
