Replacing Bow Window?

Thursday, January 28th, 2010
Chris D asked:


I want the best possible window that has the best insulation. Would you say vinyl or wood? I want the inside white. The outside is going to be white, I have white aluminum siding. This is going to be a large living room window. Any ideas of what the specs. of the window should be? Like double or triple pane? Again the insurance is paying for a good portion of it I just want the best out there. Thanks
I live in n/w Indiana and the window is on the south wall.

how to lower $600 usd electricity bill?

Monday, March 9th, 2009
Billy B asked:


Are electricity bill are average of $600 a month. All our lights have already been switched to compact fluorescent and use dimmers almost all the time. we turn lights off when not in use. We never use the air condition or heater since our house has really good insulation, double pane windows uv glazed. Our house is average 5700 square feet. We never use the dishwasher or trash compactor. Energy efficient refrigerator (subzero). We close refrigerator right after use.We also stopped using the bar and wine chiller.

What other methods beside turning off washer and dryer. Cannot install solar power panel or windmill because of HOA

Do you have any ideas in lowering our bill?
