[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 73642, member: 126"] Re: Home building/living suggestions wanted. It had been a while since I was working on my old house design (never built), but that sounds bass-akwards. My recollection is that window exposure facing north is generally minimized to reduce heat loss, while southern exposure was made generous for solar input. I ASSume that house is in the northern hemisphere? This is why location is important, sometimes the lot does not provide optimal views wrt optimal passive solar design considerations. JR [/QUOTE]
