NY Home Improvement Company Cites Sunroom Additions as "Green" Solution

POUGHKEEPSIE, NY, June 08, 2007 - Hudson Valley home improvement company, Vinyl Tech, Inc., says that adding a sunroom addition to any home is a great way to save on energy. In addition to allowing for experiencing the outdoors in a comfortable indoor garden setting, sunrooms reap another huge benefit: energy savings. The natural light produced by a sunroom helps to cut down on the need for additional lighting while passively capturing the sun's dollar-saving rays and distributing that energy throughout the rest of your home.

According to Vinyl Tech, President- Ms. Damary Kiefer, "Sun rooms cost less than other types of additions while giving homeowners excellent functionality and return-on-investment, in energy savings and home equity, while adding to the beauty and ambience of their home."

A Vinyl Tech, Inc. sunroom makes use of something known as Passive Solar Energy Technology. This type of solar energy technology takes advantage of the sun's energy through design features, such as large south-facing thermal windows and materials in the floors that absorb energy during the day to passively release and distribute it. A southern facing position for a Vinyl Tech sunroom is preferred; however, east or west facing will also be able to take advantage of the sun's rays too.

A Vinyl Tech, Inc. sunroom creates an environmentally friendly helper to costly electric and fuel bills. The addition of a Vinyl Tech sunroom, solarium or conservatory helps to accomplish this without the use of any additional mechanical means, helping to maximize passive solar energy opportunities.
Ms. Kiefer continues, "Vinyl Tech sunrooms, solariums and conservatories are not only environmentally-friendly and economical but they come fully installed by our team of New York sunroom experts. Not only does a Vinyl Tech sunroom provide protection from the elements, while extending enjoyment of the seasons, but it also increases the value of your home."

Because of rising energy costs, there is a growing interest in solar energy right now. Sunrooms, solariums and other sunny enclosures have surged along with efforts to harness the sun's energy. Right now, homes in some California subdivisions are twice as likely to sell if they have any kind of solar energy. Possible Federal Tax Incentives encourage investment in such energy savings measures too. Right now, there is a burst of new technology happening bringing better materials, energy efficiency and design to homeowners. Vinyl Tech, Inc. is on the forefront of this "green energy" boom.
