ENERGY/GREEN FEATURES ADDENDUM Page 3 of 4 ENERGY&GREEN FEATURES ADDENDUM 226 GLOSSARY OF TERMS Copyright 2512010 U.S. Green Building Council Colorado TERM DEFINITION AFUE A central furnace or boiler's efficiency is measured by annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE). Automated Lighting Controls Automatic controls for lighting range from a simple outdoor light fixture with a built-in photo sensor to whole-house programmable controls that can activate lights for various scenarios. Ceiling Fans Fans, set to push warm air into living spaces, can reduce winter heating bills, & cut cooling costs when they are used in lieu of air-conditioners. Earthen Built / Rammed Earth A technique used in the building of walls using the raw materials of earth, chalk, lime & gravel. ENERGYSTAR256 / Low E Windows In g eneral , Colorado re q uiresaU-factorof0.35o r lesstomeetENERGY STAR g uidelines. ENERGYSTAR256 Rated Roof ENERGY STAR qualified roof products reflect more of the sun's rays. ENERGYSTAR256 Refrigerator, Dishwasher, Clothes-Washer ENERGY STAR qualified refrigerators are 20% more energy efficient than the minimum federal standard. ENERGYSTAR256 qualified dishwasher models are, on average, 10% more energy efficient than non-qualified models. ENERGYSTAR256 qualified clothes washers use about 30% less energy & use over 50% less water than regular washers. Evaporative Cooling AKA swamp cooler. A simple cooling system that operates by moving air across or through a wet pad. FSC Certified Cabinets Independent certification & labeling of forest products, such as lumber used for cabinets, administered by the Forest Stewardship Council. FSC Certified Lumber Independent certification & labeling of forest products, such as lumber used for framing, administered by the Forest Stewardship Council. Green Guard Certified Carpet/Flooring Third-party certification program for carpet & flooring. Grey water System Untreated wastewater resulting from lavatory wash basins, laundry & bathing. Waste water from kitchen sinks isoftenexcluded becauseofthehi g hfoo d & g rease content. Ground Source Heat Pump (Geothermal heat pumps/geothermal heat exchange) Ground source heat pumps (GSHPs) are electrically powered systems that tap the stored energy of the earth. These systems use the earth's relatively constant temperature to provide heating, cooling, & hot water. High Efficiency Furnace / Boiler The Federal Trade Commission requires new furnaces or boilers to display their AFUE so consumers can compare heating efficiencies of various models. AFUE is a measure of how efficient the appliance is in the energy in its fuel over the course of a typical year. High Efficiency Lighting (CFLs, LED) New lighting technologies use less energy, last longer, & give off the same amount of light as old incandescent technologies. Compact fluorescent lights (CFLs) use about a quarter of the energy while giving off the same amount of light & lasting up to 10 times longer. Light-emitting Diodes (LEDs)create light without releasing heat, last longer than CFLs & do not contain mercury. High Efficiency Water Heater High efficiency water heaters use 10 to 50 percent less energy than standard models. Models with an ENERGYSTAR rating are considered highly efficient. High SEER Air Conditioning Air conditioners manufactured after January 26, 2006 must achieve a Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) of 13 or higher. Home Orientation (South Facing Overhangs) The home is located on the property to maximize solar gain in winter, & provide shade in summer. In general, a south-facing orientation, within 30260 east or west of true south, will provide around 90% of the maximum static solar collection potential. Home Performance with ENERGY STAR256 Home Performance with ENERGYSTAR is a national program administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) & the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). It offers a comprehensive, "whole-house" approach to improving energy efficiency & comfort of exist
