Vermont Energy Efficiency Guide: Energy Conserving Features Inherent to Older Buildings (draft)
2020. Vermont Energy Efficiency Guide: Energy Conserving Features Inherent to Older Buildings (draft). Vermont State Historic Preservation Office, Department of Housing and Community Development
"Vermonters have a long history of ingenuity and prudence; this can clearly be seen in the construction methods and details of our older housing stock. Before automated temperature control and oil furnaces, Vermonters relied on several manual and passive tools to regulate heat, manage moisture, and conserve energy. This guide is intended to remind us of the several inherent energy saving features of older buildings and how you can use them today to reduce your carbon footprint." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Vermont State Historic Preservation Office, Department of Housing and Community Development, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans & Grants division, National Part Service, U.S. Department of the Interior (grant number P20AF00053).
