Meadowlark Energy gets a lot of phone calls from homeowners who have lots of questions about energy issues in their homes. What the building performance company found is that many of them are missing basic information about how their homes work.
"People are looking for knowledge about this and they don’t know where to go to get it," says Doug Selby, co-founder of Meadowark Energy. "We wanted to put something together so people could, in a relaxed setting, learn more about how their homes operate."
As the home remodeling is picking up again, Meadowlark Energy is planning a free seminar series to provide homeowners with the basic knowledge they need to decide how they can make their homes greener.
"We think people should be thinking about all of the opportunities for greening your home," Selby says. "It's the only remodeling activity that actually puts money back into your pockets."
While Selby says the larger, longer-term solutions discussed in the seminar series will cover services offered by Meadowark Energy, other DIY approaches will also be included.
The Smarter Home Seminar will take place once a month for three months beginning May 11.
