We will look at all aspects of the DTD house and their operations to create a more energy efficient fraternity. During this IPRO we will consider possible alternatives to many issues including but not limited to: mechanical heating system, building envelope, thermal properties of buildings perimeter, roofing materials, air infiltration, ventilation, and occupancy trends. In general, we will collect information regarding the existing conditions and itemize all improvements that could be made to create a more energy efficient fraternity. In addition, we will look for grant assistance to help pay for future energy efficiency upgrades. This will allow us to address what is possible through comparison of funding and needs. Show less
