Carlin Hall Community Center
This one-room facility is used as a daycare center and community hall. AIRE upgraded the lighting for efficiency in this small facility in 2009, leading to a decline in electricity use. We weatherized the building and installed a new boiler in the summer of 2010, which cut natural gas use by nearly half over the 2010-2011 winter season. A project to install new siding and insulation at Carlin Hall turned into a structural restoration due to issues that were discovered. Energy use in 2012 is very low because the building was unoccupied for several months. The building restoration will be completed in early 2013.
