Thursday, March 18, 2010

The benefits of passive solar heating and cooling are as follows:

#1 - The most obvious is a bright, sunny living space that is an absolute pleasure to live in. You will fiind you have more energy year round, even when there is no sun. Some people claim they are less depressed and healthier too. Natrual light (even clouds) is better than light from light bulbs.

#2 - The thermal masss evens out the temperature and makes the home more comfortable to live in.

#3 - A passive solar home cost less to heat, cool and light resulting in lower energy bills forever.

#4 - Passive solar homes produce less carbon emissions.

#5 - The fact you know you are living smart.
