<h1>Abstrakt</h1><p> </p><p>- As energy prices rise, energy-saving in buildings is becoming increasingly important. By applying different construction and installation technologies, to new buildings the energy consumption can be reduced effectively, compared to similar existing buildings. These technical measures are often an investment in the long term and will reduce energy costs significantly.</p><p> </p><p>The purpose of this report is to show how to reduce energy consumption in a small house. It is presented in this report that both building's technical saving arrangements (the sealing of a building) and an installation technical arrangement (changing from the <strong><em>F</em></strong>-<em>system</em> to the <strong><em>FTX</em></strong>-<em>system</em>) would reduce energy consumption in newly built detached houses, if compared with a similar existing house but without these technical measures.</p><p> </p><p>The report presents also detailed calculations showing how much energy an existing <strong><em>2-</em></strong><em>storey</em> house, built in the year <em>2007</em> in Eskilstuna, consumes and how much energy would be saved if these corrective measures were applied to a new building.</p><p> </p><p>It is also reported how much money would be saved each year over a <strong><em>10</em></strong> <em>year</em> period if the measures were applied. The results show that both solutions are a good investment in the reduction of energy consumption and hence the cost involved.</p><p> </p><p><strong><em>Keywords</em></strong>: energy, heat energy, infiltration, <strong><em>FTX</em></strong>-<em>system</em>, free temperature effectively.</p><p><strong> </strong></p>
