Over on my other blog, Home Construction Improvement, I'm going to be running a series of articles over the next few months documenting the construction of a new house. That house will have several Green Construction details that I think you'll find very interesting. So keep an eye on New House Construction Series for updates during construction.
The new house will feature dense packed blown cellulose insulation, triple pane energy efficient windows and a high efficiency heating system. The series will follow the construction from the ground breaking all the way to occupancy.
