Product Details

EduSol Book Passive Solar House: The Complete Guide to Heating and Cooling Your Home, by James Kachadorian. The Passive Solar House: For the past ten years The Passive Solar House has offered 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. True to this innovative, straightforward approach, the new edition of the 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.

This is a great book to have, in a world of climbing energy costs. Applicable to diverse regions, climates, budgets, and styles of architecture, Kachadorian's techniques translate the essentials of timeless solar design into practical wisdom for today's solar builders. Profiles of successful passive solar design, construction, and retrofit projects from readers of the first edition provide inspiration to first-time homebuilders and renovators alike.

The Passive Solar House: "The core appeal of this revised and expanded edition of The Passive Solar House is its basis on James Kachadorian's formerly patented Solar Slab heat exchanger. From the foundation to the roof, the book offers a technique for building homes that heat and cool themselves in a range of climates using ordinary building materials available anywhere and with methods familiar to all building contractors and many do-it-yourselfers. The result is a beautiful, comfortable house that needs a backup furnace or air conditioner rarely.

Applicable to diverse budgets and styles of architecture, Kachadorian's proven techniques translate the essentials of timeless solar design into practical wisdom for today's solar builders. Whether you are dreaming of a first home or planning a comfortable and easy-to-maintain retirement home, The Passive Solar House is your key to the home of a life time."
