What is passive solar heating and cooling? It’s the capturing of those natural environmental events such as wind and sun and then converting them into natural conditioning. Using this approach you will have comfort throughout the year by reducing, or eliminating, the need for fossil fuel. Yet while heat from sunlight and ventilation from breezes is free for the taking, few modern architects or builders really understand the principles involved.

In this book you will discover the answers to all the questions you will have regarding this eco-friendly source of power. Solar power is an evolving science and in The Solar House you’ll have the most current information on the technology and application of passive power for your home. This information alone can save you thousands of dollars by insuring that you are applying the very latest technology into your solar power conversion.

Here’s how Bookwatch described this book: "An excellent guide for embracing ecologically-friendly living." And we here at www.solarenergy-solarpower.com couldn’t agree more. We recommend that as you consider your green options that you include this book in your library.
