On a sunny spring day the thick double glazed wall of bi-fold doors was capturing almost too much sun! and the dark ceramic floor tiles were radiating heaps of heat into the room. The house has a lot of internal mass, a technique known as "reverse brick veneer", to retain the heat. The house has a Biolytix system which converts the household's waste water into useful nutrient rich liquid fertiliser for the orchard. It was a privilege to see a modern passive solar design in action!WHENhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12171444685814654018noreply@blogger.com
