And now for something completely different
Insulated window shutters And now for something completely different! I have long been a fan of insulated shutters. Mostly shutters follow a plantation design, but in the north where winters are very cold... some windows are just a recipe for heat loss. So tonight, I am adding this small video which shows an early prototype of what is really needed in homes today. Cheap oil is gone, energy saving is in and this is one way to do it. Other methods include this one from Mother Earth News: http://www.motherearthnews.com/green-homes/thermal-panel-window-insulation.aspx#axzz2krViIpYr And from Lifehacker: http://lifehacker.com/5949581/diy-insulating-door-or-window-shutters As I poke around the Net, I will be posting more versions of do it yourself shutters....
