" Over 90% of all the new homes built today come with air conditioning. In fact. Most of the heat -- matter of -- California here to 45% in the design spilling out as a result of heat gain through windows while in the energy wife's -- we're using some very energy efficient windows -- by Philips which reduced the amount of -- from this on the get the plants by as much -- 64% with me -- vice president marketing Phelps -- thanks for being here tell me about -- let's say this product it's being used in the energy -- seasons really good fit for this project because -- unique design of the window. I'm really lend itself to exceptional energy performance. Can I noticed that this is a vinyl window and vinyl doesn't conduct he nearly. As well as aluminum does loom conducting a thousand times greater than vinyl so this is more energy efficient frame as well absolutely absolutely -- secret where the big secrets lies in me deep pocket for the insulating glass. Most windows we'll take insulating glass of records of an -- This is double that it into an half an unassisted triple glazed product. And also maintain ample air space in between which it's excellent for. Thermal performance now they have a Specter selected low. The silver coating on the glass yeah sure sure actually two surfaces have -- They both have always have to double we we also failure gaps with argon. So we get exceptional solar heat gain meetings and then that you factors so John tell me about your first -- label and how that relates here."

" into -- label has been a great thing for the window industry it's done by a third party organization it's an unbiased. Test. And really it island itself -- to an apples to apples comparison with -- products and an energy performance. The label goes into three different categories U factor solar heat gain coefficient invisible light transmission. The department chair while question in a climate like -- California here so he can coefficient is by far the most important of the three. Categories because that's a measure of how much solar heat. Is allowed to the window into the dwelling. And the more they can be eliminated from coming in means elastic and after an air conditioning. And -- cooling bills -- much slower this enhancement Jerry Lewis or seeking cooperation -- point 26 which means 26%. Of the sun's heat is giving -- exactly. Having -- and there's important absolutely everybody effective. When you factor is product yet at some very very low U factor over the number the -- this hasn't this but it has -- 17 U factor -- Very very good. You factors to measure of how much heat is allowed to escape -- a product. -- U factor is more important in cold climates because. I can measure how much furnace heat. Will. Escape through windows. Your and your interest and of course in keeping furnace heat inside the home. If we have to run of the structure so. With the we coatings he needs to reflect that that heat. It's now let's talk about the frame itself -- report. Frames are important. This spring in the way it's designed lends itself in two excellent that thermal properties as well. As you can see the precise the window in half it's got multiple. Chambers it's -- interior walls. Those are valuable for several reasons first -- structurally and exit trying very very strong and also if this were -- hollow with no interior walls. -- there would only have to go through one additional wall to get into home. Because we have all these air pockets which air pockets are great insulator. Just don't. Don't get that had her come home where Nicole claiming you know -- that corner come through OK now tell me about the campaign you said there some special things. This is a very unique -- for this project. These windows are actually gray and the exterior. And that is paint that it's applied to the vital. And the neat thing about it is it's actually heat reflective paint. Dark colors will absorb heat. Oftentimes. You know will be. Detrimental to the window and the performance because those dark colors trap the heat can actually break down. -- insulating glass. Because this reflects heat and that happens and Norton is that he went to get through the frame and into home."

" on any other benefits. Leo Steve this product has a lot of other benefits it's very very structurally strongly we get commercial rating at sixty on this product witches. Virtually unheard of and vinyl window that's the design pressure when -- it was sixty pounds per square exactly exactly so it's got exceptional ratings for that. Some additional benefits of low. Actually it'll help lower your cooling and heating bills in addition to that guy who helped prevent them out. Harmful UV rays that the -- from coming into your home. Those are the raised it will fade carpets and furnishings and and walls of section so you're dwelling is going to look at nicer longer. Additionally low. We'll actually keep the interior temperature of the glass warmer. Then will piece of glass doesn't have a lovely. Let's -- insulation absolutely less condensation would Foreman glass condensation happens when hot moist air meets the cold surface -- the glass surfaces warmer. You're not going to get dad and can help in that things such as reducing the chance of mold that can -- If I want to buy windows like these -- ago. Well we have -- dealer network. Set up throughout the country -- coast to coast from from Maine to California. Best place to go would be our website. -- windows dot com we have a dealer. Listing in there -- go to your state and you'll find many dealers to -- John thanks for being here OK thank you."

Installing the Whole House Electrical Surge Protector and Arc Detector
Installing the Whole House Electrical Surge Protector and Arc Detector

Barry Driscoll is in the basement installing a state-of-the-art surge protector from Square D. Barry hooks up a main surge protector for the whole house that will take care of all the appliances, electronics, and anything else that could be damaged. It also protects the telephones and cable TV that run throughout the house. This eliminates the need for individual surge protectors on separate appliances. This can be installed in a retrofit as well as in new construction. Barry is also installing an arc fault detector. These units that are now required by the new national electrical code for branch circuits in bedrooms protect against fires from arcing caused by damaged wires (if you hit a wire while hanging a picture), deteriorating electrical insulation, stressed electrical cords, or misapplied or damaged appliance use. The arc detector was designed to detect overloads, short circuits and arc faults and open the circuit and stop the arc fault and its high intensity heat before a fire is likely to ignite.

Residential Electrical Wiring for the Warehouse Rehab
Residential Electrical Wiring for the Warehouse Rehab

In this segment Bob meets Eddie Fisher, the master electrician on the Brooklyn project's infrastructure team. The team of five electricians from AC/DC Electric is rewiring the building from basement to roof deck. Fisher's team is pre-wiring the building for telephones, computer and cable TV. New York City building codes often require the use of materials and techniques not often seen in residential construction. Codes enacted in the summer of 2003 in New York City require a separate power line from the main electrical box to each GFI (Ground Fault Interrupt) circuit. Also required by code in this building is the use of BX, or metal-shielded, cable. BX is a rigid, flexible metal conduit with a wire bundle, consisting of individually insulated conductors covered by a flexible spiral-wound layer of metal. BX will typically last longer than vinyl-clad cable and may prevent some inadvertent damage in the future.
