In a large scale study of energy conservation in single family homes, 20 homes were randomly selected from homes built in a housing development in southern England. Ten of the houses, randomly selected from the 20 houses selected for the study, were constructed with standard levels of insulation (70 mm of roof insulation and 50 mm of insulation in the walls). The other 10 houses were constructed with extra insulation (120 mm of roof insulation and 100 mm of insulation in the walls). Each house was heated with a gas furnace and energy consumption was monitored for eight years. The data shown below give annual gas consumption in MWh for each of the 20 houses.
