D53 Home Energy Use

D53 Home Energy Background 1 Yasmin and her mother examined the form that came with her new water heater. “Look, we can get a huge rebate!” said Yasmin. Her mother looked more carefully. “You’re right, our water heater qualifies because it is more energy efficient than our old one.” As her mother filled out the form, Yasmin read the flyer and saw something else.

D53 Home Energy Background 2 “Mom, there is a free service that will come and tell us how to save even more energy.” “Oh, that would be great,” said Yasmin’s mother. “Last winter we had a pretty high electricity bill. I don’t want to waste my hard-earned money if I don’t have to.” CHALLENGE QUESTION: What does it take to reduce energy use in a home?

D53 Your Home Energy 1 In your group, discuss and write a list of home activities where you see energy used Put you list in order, from the most to least energy used at home during one year. Be prepared to discuss your ideas. Now get a sheet of paper, copy down each line, and fill in the blanks.

D53 Your Home Energy 2 Enter your home electric, gas and water bills. ROOM TYPE ROOM SIZE ROOM NUMBER TOTAL SIZE Bathrooms 50 X = Bedrooms 100 Closets 25 Dining Room Family Room-Back 150 Front Room-Living Hallways 40 Kitchen ADD TOTALS PEOPLE= ROOMS= SIZE= ELECTRIC=$ GAS=$ WATER=$ TOTAL=$ Enter your home electric, gas and water bills.

D53 Home Energy Procedure Look at the next list for 2 homes that are similar in size but in different states. Explain how each feature uses energy. Also think about the different climates.

Feature Texas Michigan Heat source Oil Natural gas Cooling source Electricity Electricity Insulation Ceiling Wall+Ceiling Window type One-Pane Two-Pane Window cover Tint No tint Water heater Electric Natural gas Air conditioner Central Window unit Appliances Not efficient High efficient Light bulbs Fluorescent LED Nearby plants Grass Tall trees

D53 Home Energy Compare 3. In your lab book write 1 paragraph about which house you think uses less energy and why. Use lots of details from the table and be prepared to discuss your decision.
