Passive Solar and Energy Use in My 420 sq.ft. Home

This is all about passive solar principles and the dumb technology I designed into my 420 sq. ft. compact house. Note that my home is located in Centreville, Maryland, latitude 39.04. Here, heating and cooling costs are relatively equal. If you live in a more northern climate, you may be less interested in shading out summer sun, and more interested in capturing winter heat. The opposite is true as you move south. Feel free to contact me if you’d like to have a general discussion about your location as it relates to site orientation and building design.

Take your screens out of south-facing winters in winter to harvest more free solar heat. 2. Casement Windows generally have a smaller frame area to admin more light for a given rough opening, and they usually seal better than double-hung windows. At compacthomeplans.com we design compact, high performance homes that are comfortable and inspiring whether built in the backyard or as the primary house. If you're intrigued by the tiny house movement but don't want to downsize to a trailer, you'll find our plans are designed around full-size furniture with generously sized spaces that won't cramp your lifestyle. Our designs include options for extra insulation and thermal mass floors to keep you comfortable, lower energy bills, and tread lightly on the environment.
