Walls With Paneling If you're a homeowner and think KWHR is a West Coast radio station, it's time to learn otherwise. KWHR, or kilowatt hours, is one of many "buzz words in the growing energy conser- vation field. To help the s energy-consciou- homeowner know more about this field. Owens-CominFiberglas Corpora- g tion has put together this glossary of some of the most frequently used energy-linke- d terms: AIR INFILTRATION: This is the leakage into your home, through cracks and or cold crevices, of hot air. It causes winter "heat loss" or supimer "heat gain" and a waste of your energy dollars. BTU: Literally, British Thermal Unit. A measure of heat flow. One Btu of heat is required to raise the temperature of 1 lb of water 1F (e.g., from 59 to 60). CAULK: To make a given area water- - or by air-tig- filling cracks and around windows and doors and where exterior walls meet the roof and foundations. Caulking guns and paste are relatively inexpensive and easy to use . CHINKING: Filling in cracks and narrow openings with leftover pieces of insulation. These openings are most often found around the chimney and where attic side walls adjoin the attic floor. CRAWL SPACE: The area between the bottom of the ground. the house to four feet high, two Usually crawl spaces are usually found in homes without a basement or a concrete slab base. Installing insulation on the underside of the first floor (the top of the crawl space) retards the loss of heat through the floor. Piping and heating ducts are often found in crawl spaces. Be sure to insulate ducts to prevent loss of heat: wrap pipes with insulation to prevent them from freezing. A DOUBLE-GLAZIN- This is not a AT TIN HEARD OF NExPYEAIFASTHESE PRICES!

Also, tinted or relfective glass may aid in reducing heat gain in summer. DUCTWORK: Passages through which heated and cooled air are distributed throughout the house. Ducts running through portions of a house that aren't heated or cooled, such as attics or crawl spaces, should be insulated to ensure maximum efficiency.
