TED and Louise Okada plan to warm up and save money this winter.
Not only are they 52 windows (

This is the second winter of Okadas, they put the quilt in the home of the Rock Creek on the top of the mountain. Window Quilt (the trade name)

\"The quilt is not for people who like to sleep late in the morning.
To have a passive solar house, you have to get involved.
You have to develop a habit of raising the tone regularly in the morning and lowering the tone at night.
\"Of course, the idea of insulated windows is not new.
Curtains, curtains and (more recently)\"insul-
\"Blinds\" are all the way for homeowners to cut heating costs.
\"Glass,\" said nannard, \"has always been a bad insulator.
So it makes sense to find ways to reduce the heat loss.
\"Like a shade, you can raise or drop the Window quilt to block the sun, or provide you with a view.
\"It\'s too light, and even children or elderly people can operate them easily,\" said Wood of ATC . \".
The quilt has white bones, white, camel, Mediterranean blue.
Wood said he was not surprised by okadasi\'s low heating bill: \"According to research on the subject, the biggest loss of heat is through the window.
We told customers that heating costs are expected to fall between 30-40%. \"The energy-

Carry two rolls-
Window cover sun panel and window cover panel (
Connect to the window with magnetic strips and must be rolled up and connected by hand).
Nuñez said: \"The quilt is really beautiful. . .
This is our bread and butter.
\"Deciding where to install a window cover is the first step in the insulation process. North-Facing the window (
People who accept the least Sun)
Is the first target for the covering.
For comfort, the bedroom needs more insulation than the rest of the house, which is not used all night.
It is also an option to make your own quilting curtains.

Claim heat loss via windows can be reduced by 80% through do-ti-
Rodale insulated curtains.
One of the advantages of making your own shades is the choice of fabrics ---
You can snap on a fabric that matches your upholstery, carpet, wallpaper, etc.

Correct installation and accurate measurement are essential for making effective shadows.
\"Also includes chapters on the tools you need, the size of the Sahara, sewing shadows and assembling the roller box.
In sewing the fabric, Wolf recommends using four separate quilting materials, alternating the use of an aluminum-containing layer of Medlar-
Thick seven layers of Yin. (
Mylar is a solid plastic film that is slightly flexible and is not affected by water and air.
Its aluminum-plated coating gives it a high reflective grade--
Therefore, it prevents the loss of radiation heat. )
\"More shades are needed
Wolf said: \"layered fabric for maximum calorific value.
Wolf said: \"The type of external fabric used is not important.
It can be used from 100% cotton to ground mixture to 100% artificial fabric for front and side.
To finish the fabric, Wolf recommends using bias tape to bind seven layered edges.
Another book on the market, \"hot blinds and curtains\" by William A. Shurcliff (
Published by brick Press in 1980. Inc. , $12. 95)
Provides you with a variety of ways to reduce the heat dissipation of windows.
Some of his ideas: outdoor blinds, opaque blinds, opaque rolls inside
Color, indoor transparency and transparent equipment.
Shukliff wrote, \"Most people who are concerned about heat loss have installed storm windows, or have hot windows, double windows, etc.
Shu Cliffe wrote a chapter in the theory behind these energies.
Save the device, \"How to lose heat through Windows.
\"He first gave a basic explanation of heat and heat loss, and then a fairly technical discussion about the rate of heat loss through the windows through conduction and radiation.
However, all his explanations are clear and he has a good description of the installation of the different window treatments --detailed.

Now, the big question is: are these window dressings officially called removable window insulation eligible for a passive solar tax credit?
Yes and no, said Domenic LaPonzina, an IRS public affairs official.
\"If the window quilt (
Or insulated curtains, etc. )
Installed as part of the entire solar energy
Then the heating system is a tax credit.
\"However, if only the curtains are installed ---
No additional solar components-
It does not meet the conditions of the tax credit.
\"Despite what solar experts have said, LaPonzina said that there is no solar module complementary to the othere and the window quilt will not store solar energy.
Solar energy advocates are annoyed by the ruling, especially since storm windows are allowed as tax credits, and they are three to four times less efficient than window quilts.
However, the storm window was written into the energy
Congress passed the law.
LaPonzina replied: \"This is the law, this is the way we enforce it;
That\'s what Congress wrote.
\"If you are not sure that the money you invest is eligible for a tax credit, call the IRS to explain your particular circumstances.
