Economic and ecological home design, using free energy sources

eHouse Home Automation , Building Management – Environmentally friendly home and building design.

Houses and buildings as opposed to flats and apartments in the block are much larger the heating energy demand for the heating in winter and cooling in summer (several hundred percent/per square meter).

This is due to the building, is open in each direction and more exposed to adverse weather phenomena such as winds , frost , high summer insulation , rain, etc. .

Comparing the block of flats in the same area (on the middle floor) of a single-family home for energy to escape:

  • The house atmospheric work on each side of the geographical (north , south , east , west).
    In the apartment are generally many times smaller areas , with one or two geographical directions external walls. Some heating is obtain from our nearest neighbours from each direction
  • Via roof at home runs of at least 30%_40% of the heat.
    In the flats this is practically non-existent phenomenon , and one flat warms upstairs neighbor (except the apartment on the top floor)
  • The floor of the building largely detached house cools down , due to the thermal bridge of the foundation , Basement , the walls.
    In apartments it is practically non-existent phenomenon (except the apartment on the ground floor)
  • Every investor wants his house had an interesting body and appearance.
    So architects are trying to create a visually nice homes, but which are uneconomical for heating and use .
    This follows the construction technology home and imperfections performed by contractors , errors which cause further energy escape.
    At this point also lose energy to heat several hundred percent.

As more and more expensive are all the sources of energy prices, and new construction directives and standards, EU to us could afford to keep the house in a year or ten years, it is necessary to consider all aspects in designing house, taking into account the heating system .

House to be economical for many years of use , it is necessary to schedule all aspects of the construction of each stage .

When planning any heating system, must take into account what is the estimated time it will run the kind of economic.

Cost of Boiler , heat pumps , solar system , that may work for a few to several years . In the case of expensive equipment such as heat pumps , heating devices of this type certainly will not return themselves before they start to get spoiled. We must also consider their loose of efficiency.

We begin a new series post of home design for low cost of energy consumption and maximize the use of free energy resources.

To get the most cost-effective and integrated plan heating system should be considered:

  • the size of the plot
  • terrain
  • planting plots
  • neighborhood
  • protected from the winds
  • insulation
  • building technologies
  • available media (energy sources)
  • top-down constraints and official

When we are in the area , in which we intend to build a house, and we do not have access to gas, or want to save money by using “green energy” , free energy , environmental or investing in the future of renewable energy .

The biggest room for maneuver give large plots , eg .

Agricultural , particularly in the open , exposed to strong winds cooling house , and much sunny summer heat home.

In these cases, the energy loss is significant in relation to the dense , urban area (about 100-200%) And is about to fight with the help of green energy sources.

Eco-energy heating , in particular require large amounts of heating automatics , to optimize and automatically switch the multiple heating sources and heat radiators, exchangers, etc..

Lack of complete and dedicated advanced automation system for heating and cooling in spite of the energy gains become “slaves to the system”, or will it work inefficiently , without the use of 100 % energy gain , earned for the heating system.
