The Passive Solar House, Revised and Expanded Edition: The Complete Guide to Heating and Cooling Your Home. The use of solar energy to heat and cool living spaces predates recorded history. Recent improvements in design and materials have made solar the design choice for this century. The Passive Solar House translates the essentials of timeless solar design (siting a home in harmony with nature, using windows as solar collectors, achieving year-around comfort by balancing insulation with healthy supplies of fresh air) into practical wisdom for today's builders. Author James Kachadorian is a civil engineer who lives in a solar home of his own design and construction. Proven techniques for building homes that heat and cool themselves, using readily available materials and methods familiar to all building contractors and many do-it-yourself homeowners. Nice color section and many, many helpful worksheets to help in planning and design. If you believe there is a solar home in your future this book will help you do the math to see if it is a feasible dream. Contains many charts that are helpful in determining solar gains in every part of the U.S. The new edition of this best-selling guide includes CSOL passive solar design software, making it easier than ever to heat your home with the power of the sun. Since The Passive Solar House was first published, passive solar construction expert James Kachadorian has perfected user-friendly, PC-compatible software to supplement the design process explained in the book by allowing homeowners/designers to enter the specifications of their design and see how changing a variable will affect its energy efficiency. 8 x 10, 240 pages, Hardcover + CD Rom, Color Insert, Worksheets, Appendices, Index.
