Energy Consumption Impacts of Site Tailoring of Mobile Homes for Energy Efficiency

摘要

Tables present data illustrating the results of the test performance of sealed insulating glass correlated with its actual long - life performance in the field. The E6P3 is the standard specifying levels of test performance for the glass that is used to compare test performance with actual performance in numerous housing units across the country. Frost point measurement is the control for performance. Data indicate that units in the survey ranging from 2 - 5 years old continue to perform well, with 95 percent maintaining frost points colder than -50 degrees F. Frost points differed across E6P3 classes. Overall, units supplied by manufacturers who subject themselves to two unannounced inspections and a yearly test for certification will perform well in the field. Tables form the bulk of the report.
