Solar Home Tour Comes to Amboy

Tomorrow we're going to be part of the solar home tour. Meanwhile the entire house is disheveled due to the ongoing tile flooring project. :|

There's probably a solar home tour near you (in North America).

North part of tour
5th location: Clark County Operations Center near St Johns and 78th St. This is a demonstration project similar to the PUD project only using Shell panels. Real Time data is available.
6th location: Zimmerman home. This is a passive solar, straw bale home.
7th location: Boehm home. This home utilizes passive solar design, solar hot water, geothermal heat pump, heat recovery ventilator and super insulation. This home is brand new and uses most of the state of the art green building and renewable energy technologies.
