Public applauds INhome team effort

Written by  //  September 25, 2011  //  Solar Decathlon  //  No comments

Today was day three of public tours, and busiest day yet! We had over 1500 people tour our home today.

Our team is proud of our traditional design that allows homeowners to live sustainably without changing their modern comforts. It truly resonated with the general public who toured our house. At the same time, we have been running measured tests (laundry, hot water, temperature control, and lighting) and currently are in second place overall! We are proud to be doing so well our first time in the Solar Decathlon.

Senator Richard Lugar visited our house yesterday and voted for the INhome on solardecathlon.gov; if the INhome is your favorite, vote for us!!!

What’s next?

  • Public Tours
  • All Team Reception
  • Dinner Parties
  • Measured Contests
  • Results from Juries

Boiler Up!!!
