Touchstone Energy® HomeSM Program

Why a Touchstone Energy® HomeSM?

 

Jackson County REMC has long placed a priority on energy efficiency, and customers appreciate the effort. Recent surveys confirm customers are overwhelmingly in support of the benefits of a well-insulated, electrically heated home.

After months of planning, Touchstone Energy Cooperatives in Central and Southern Indiana adopted a set of

qualifications for the Indiana Touchstone Energy Home.

l Double pane, Low-E windows

l Metal insulated exterior doors

l Externally-vented exhaust systems in bathrooms and kitchen

l Exterior house wrap

l Heating and cooling ducts located in conditioned space

l Ultra energy-efficient electric water heating

l High-efficiency electric heat pump or geothermal unit

l House-wide moisture control and water management
