Abstract:
A method of communicating residential energy efficiency, is provided. The method includes obtaining a data set from a plurality of building structures wherein the data set includes an indoor temperature, an outdoor temperate, and HVAC equipment state information from each of the plurality of building sets. The method further includes determining energy efficiency for each of the plurality of building structures using the indoor temperature, the outdoor temperature and the HVAC equipment state information and displaying energy efficiency for one of the plurality of building structures as a comparison to other of the plurality of building structures.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of collecting and sharing envelope efficiency of a building structure on a comparative basis, the method comprising:\n collecting HVAC equipment state information from HVAC equipment associated with the building structure; collecting information about the building structure including the square footage of conditioned space within the building; collecting indoor temperature data and outdoor temperature data associated with the HVAC equipment state information; determining using a processor, a coefficient for the building structure using the indoor temperature data, the outdoor temperature data, and the HVAC equipment state information, the coefficient describing a rate of heat transfer of the building structure per degree temperature difference; determining using the processor, the envelope efficiency for the building structure using the heat loss and the square footage of the conditioned spaced within the building; displaying envelope efficiency for the building structure in comparison to a plurality of other building structures to show the envelope efficiency for the building structure on the comparative basis.
