A special nano-molecular thermal insulating paint called Temp-Coat was applied to the inside of all exterior walls and ceilings of the solar test home. Adding R-20 to each surface, the energy performace of the home was improved by an additional 8% (the paint was applied AFTER the installation of new windows, doors, HVAC, and R-60 attic insulation). The walls of the test home have no other insulation except Temp-Coat. Paint was applied by Great Western Painting. For more information, visit www.SolarHomeMakeover.com.
