Today I was in a three story home in Cambridge MA. The homeowner was a nice gentleman that was most interested in following the bottom line. He wanted a direct account of how many BTU's he can save with the upgrades. Part of the reason that most auditors can only guess at the number of BTU's that you will save is because of the homeowners lifestyle. If suddenly by reinsulating your home you stop keeping the heat at 68 and knock it down to 64, then there is a significant change in the ammount of BTU's that you will use. Sometimes people will do this after they see their first energy bill post work done. They see the change and go, "I was spending that much?" Ideas and thoughts along those lines are what can change our lifestyle faster than any politician or idealist can. The bottom line is the best way to target people.
