Revised and Expanded Edition - Includes CD-ROM with Custom Design Software 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 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, Windows-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 the building book for 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.

While heat from sunlight and ventilation from breezes is free for the taking, few modern architects or builders really understand the principles involved. Yet "natural conditioning"--Heating and cooling with passive solar techniques -- is a viable alternative to fossil fuels. Acknowledging the good intentions of misguided solar designers in the past, the author highlights certain egregious errors and shows how to avoid them. The author shows how to select a cost-effective, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly backup heating system; how to preserve indoor air quality in an airtight, energy-efficient home; and ways of employing green building materials in a naturally conditioned home.

"Kick the oil habit; turn to the sun for heating and cooling. Homeowners are increasingly worried about our dependence on fossil fuels. From potentially catastrophic climate change to the strain of skyrocketing fuel prices, the need for a clean, affordable alternative has never been more urgent. Passive solar house design is the alternative. The core appeal of this revised and expanded edition of The Passive Solar House is its basis on James Kachadorianʼs 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 only rarely. Applicable to diverse budgets and styles of architecture, Kachadorianʼs proven techniques translate the essentials of timeless solar design into practical wisdom for todayʼs 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 lifetime"--Book cover
