Newest Green Products… Winners or Losers?

I don’t know if you’ve checked out This Old House online lately, but it is full of incredible information for your home. It’s not just limited to restoring, say a farmhouse that was built in the 1950’s, but there are tons of things you can do to your existing house or incorporate into a "Made from Scratch" custom home that will save you money and increase your quality of life!
