Energy Efficiency in Log Cabin Design

These days you hear more and more about energy efficiency, and it continues to be a trend in the future. And that is good news because energy efficiency helps the environment in that it conserves precious natural resources and helps to reduce pollution too, while also saving you money. And with the growing concern over climate change and energy, there are sure to be more and more building options to incorporate into your log cabin or home design. When it comes to the planning of your log cabin building design, you will want to do your research and find out all of the available options and choices that you have to make your log cabin building as energy efficient as possible.

Conserving Energy with Water Systems

Water systems are one of the ways to conserve energy in your log cabin building. Hot water accounts for about 13 percent of most log homes annual utility bills. Usually, hot water is provided by an insulated water tank that is fitted with a gas burner or electric heating element. If you are going the traditional route, you want to choose the highest efficiency units that are available. If you live in an area with a reasonable amount of sunshine, you might consider a solar hot water collector. This roof or yard mounted water system circulates the water or fluid through a panel where it is warmed by the sun. The warmed fluid then passes into an insulated storage tank where it can then be drawn for use in radiant flooring or to heat for drinking water.
