William Cox is an amateur photographer, a stickler for keeping records who lives in central Kentucky. Two years ago, William decided to build his dream house. Many decisions went into building his dream, including the use of Thermocore wall and roof panels in its construction. William had done plenty of research into Thermocore Panels and expected that his new home would be energy and environmentally friendly. He is truly surprised as to the savings he is realizing. You see, although William's new home is over 44% larger than his previous home, his bills attributed to heating and cooling his new home are actually 61% LOWER. That's right. Even though William enjoys a significantly larger home, he is actually spending $115.00 LESS per month on utilities vs. his old home. William knew building with Thermocore was a smart choice-how smart he was amazed to see.
