Why do we need to air seal AND insulate? https://buff.ly/3okb802 The answer is that these control layers work together to protect air quality and energy efficiency, improving comfort, protecting our building assets, and saving energy and money. If we don’t have a good air seal, pollutants get through the insulation and we end up using insulation as a filter. This means the insulation will be compromised, and pollutants and even pests are more likely to enter buildings. #building #buildings #greenbuilding #construction #architecture #design #airsealing #insulation #weatherization #airtightness #energyefficiency #indoorairquality #IAQ #HVAC #health #comfort #controllayers #buildingenvelope #sustainability #highperformance

xElectric Landscaping 101: https://j.mp/3nwxZRd The noise made by gas leaf blowers is a problem, but do you know about the #pollution & #health hazards of gas lawn and garden #equipment? Instead, let's go electric! Switching to electric equipment protects occupants as well as lawn care workers, who directly breathe in toxic fumes. And, according to the EPA, gas-powered landscaping equipment is a major contributor to climate change, producing 13-21% of toxic air emissions in the US each year. EcoQuiet lawn care uses 90% electric equipment and has been electric-focused since the company's founding in 2014. Read this article and others by George Carrette and the EcoQuiet team, and let us know your electric lawn care questions! #EcoQuietLawnCare #landscaping #lawncare #lawnandgarden #lawns #powertools #equipment #noise #noisepollution #pollution #home #homes #gardens #yards #backyards #homemaintenance #homes #maintenance #decarbonization #electrification #landscaping

Electric Lawn & Garden Equipment - A Revolution in the Making: https://j.mp/3oybvhF Have you woken up or tried to work to the sound of a noisy leaf blower? Have you gotten caught in the gas fumes behind gas powered lawn and other maintenance equipment? Lawn maintenance and outdoor power equipment such as mowers, leaf blowers, edgers, trimmers, and chain saws are clearly pesty, unhealthy, and cause negative environmental and climate impacts. Fortunately, a better option already exists. Due in large part to continuous improvements in battery technology in recent years, electric lawn and maintenance products provide a quieter, healthier, and cleaner alternative to gas-powered equipment and are rapidly growing in popularity. There are also now electric rototillers, power washers, and snow blowers. This equipment is cost competitive, the technology is comparable or better than gas powered equipment in terms of performance, and electric equipment offers added features like the ability to program and connect to the machines, and to charge them with renewable energy. Some electric maintenance equipment is even autonomous. (What will we do with all that extra time?) If you've electrified your lawncare or have plans to make some changes away from fossil fuels in your outdoor maintenance, give a shout! Your ideas and experiences are likely to help others. #lawncare #landscaping #lawns #gardenequipment #gardens #lawnandgarden #yards #yardword #emissions #savings #noise #pollution #noisepollution #climatechange @agzainfo @QuietComm @freshenergy @prfctearth @LungAssociation #homes #home #maintenance #equipment #mowers #leafblowers #edgers #trimmers #chainsaws #environment #electrification #decarbonization #SDGs #sustainability
