Honeywell is committed to helping homeowners maximize energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs. As part of our commitment, Honeywell is proud to be a sponsor of 2009 Solar Decathlon. The competition is aligned with Honeywell's own mission - to build a world that is more comfortable and energy efficient.

Our Sponsorship:
Honeywell has offered participating universities closed-cell spray foam insulation containing Honeywell's Enovate® non-ozone-depleting blowing agent, in addition to programmable thermostats and other building controls. All of these play an important role in improving energy efficiency and lowering heating and cooling costs for homeowners worldwide.

As part of its sponsorship, Honeywell also is providing shirts for the volunteers who will help make the Solar Decathlon a success.

More on Enovate:
Honeywell's Enovate blowing agent is a critical ingredient used in closed-cell spray foam, which is used in walls and roofing, and enables the foam's superior insulation performance (R-value). This energy-efficient technology, used for many years to help appliances achieve ENERGY STAR ratings, is rapidly being adopted to insulate homes and other novel applications such as solar water heaters in China and hurricane-resistant roofs materials like the one on the New Orleans Superdome.
