[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I love high ceilings, def a key selling point for me. With caveats that they cannot be too high (above 12/cathedral ceilings type) not because of esthetic but because I am too poor to happily pay crazy energy bills for my 600k home [/quote] I have huge windows and pretty high ceilings (10ft mostly, 15ft in some rooms) and pay the same or less in energy bills as our old built in 1979 HOA development colonial (which had updated vinyl windows, HVAC with high SEER and blown in fiberglass roof insulation). New place is also about 2x the square footage. I attribute this to a solid new build construction that is typical these days (house wrap, fiberglass batts in all exterior walls, low-e double glass windows) vs standard old construction (no house wrap, no wall insulation) and going from electric to gas heat. You do need ceiling fans in those high ceiling rooms though.[/quote]
