Austin Green Remodel Project (Part 1)
In the first half of The "This Old House Hour", for the first time ever, the experts at This Old House travel to Austin, Texas, to transform an historic bungalow into an expanded, eco-friendly home with the help of a team of local green building experts. Newly married homeowners Michele Grieshaber and Michael Klug need more space to accommodate their modern lifestyle and Michael's two growing sons, Sam and David. Architect David Webber plans an architecturally sensitive and modest second floor addition, while local builder Bill Moore has some smart strategies for increasing the efficiency of the house, while preserving the old house charm. In the second half of the Hour, on Ask This Old House, plumbing and heating expert Richard Trethewey helps a homeowner refinish her cast iron radiators. With the help of a restoration specialist, they sandblast the peeling paint and apply a brand new finish. Afterward, host Kevin O'Connor visits St. Louis for a House call to help install a standby generator in an area with frequent power outages.
