Study to compare heating efficiency of bulk fuels vs. natural gas in low-income houses

Onset (http://www.onsetcomp.com) has announced that several hundred of the company’s HOBO data loggers are being used in a key national weatherization study funded by the Department of Energy’s Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL).

Called the National Weatherization Assistance Program Evaluation, the effort marks the first time in two decades the federal government will gather technical data on energy consumption and other factors in homes treated under the federal weatherization program.

More than 200 Onset HOBO temperature and time-of-use data loggers are being installed in low-income homes throughout the Midwest, Northeast and South, where they will monitor primary heating
