| Abstract | he purpose of our project is to show the most effective ways at minimizing heat gain and loss in houses throughout the summer and the winter. We built a model house showing what we would do to minimize heat gain and loss inside our house. We didn’t actually do an experiment, so there weren’t any results, but with hemp as an insulator, it is scientifically proven to be a much better insulator than regular builder insulation. We came to a conclusion that our plan was eco-friendly, inexpensive, and very efficient. |
