In this lesson, you will learn how to enter data about the home’s lighting systems into the NEAT audit software as part of the home’s baseloads.
As with other components already covered in this course, NEAT will examine the cost effectiveness of replacing any existing standard incandescent bulbs with compact fluorescent lights (CFLs). You need to make this comparison by light fixture.
Therefore, you will need to know the following information:
Lamp type
Quantity
Size (watts)
Use (hours per day)
This lesson uses data from the example site-built home. Please have the home’s details printed and available for your reference with this lesson.
