I'm in the dreaming stage and collecting information on house designs/
guidelines with a view to building one with a combination of solar
photovoltaic, perhaps active hot air panels for house heating plus active
hot water panels for the domestic hot water.
I live in Vancouver, British Columbia and plan to put up the house in the
future somewhere on the sunshine coast in the Sechelt region or near.
No definite plans as yet, just want to understand the engineering details.
I can do the heat flow calculations, have university level math ability and
am a computer programmer.
Most important, I have a brother-in-law who worked in house construction.
I have a small collection of the ASHRAE volumes including the Fundamentals.
I am asking to see if anyone has some research guidelines and what really is
practical in this geographical region.
Our power utility is in the process of being broken up and sold, so I can
anticipate prices soaring in the future, as they did in the province of
Ontario when the same thing happened.
but first practicality, then cost calculations.
What is practical?
Thanks
