Episode #28- Part 1 | Pretty Isn’t Enough: Building Physics That Actually Matter w Michael Kingsland

In this conversation, I interview Michael Kingsland from Laros Technologies, exploring the evolution of the company from its solar roots to its current focus on high-performance building solutions. We discuss the importance of sustainable timber sourcing, the principles of Passive House, and the critical role of air tightness and moisture management in construction. Michael emphasizes the differences between HRV and ERV ventilation systems, the need to balance budget constraints with essential building performance elements, and the common mistakes made in construction that can lead to significant long-term issues. Our discussion also highlights the Aqua Tower case study as a cautionary tale about thermal bridging and the importance of considering building physics in design.
