Why don't you sell the monster and build an intelligently designed house?

$30K+ for efficient windows sounds just horrible.

So I vote to sell the monster, build smaller, tighter, better insulated, better windows, and pay strict attention to how your house is oriented to the sun.

There have been many great improvements in house designs that work with nature rather than against, in the last decade or so.

Sell the monster, sell, sell, sell!
