This Earth Month, experience first hand how skillful design and construction can save the planet. This 1870’s Park Slope row house was retrofitted in 2015 to achieve Passive House EnerPHit certification.
The house is airtight, well-insulated, and has a constant supply of fresh filtered air through its energy recovery ventilator. Other energy saving components include triple glazed high performance windows and skylights, solar hot water, induction cooking, and an ethanol burning fireplace.
Architect Jane Sanders will walk us through the design principles of Passive House Construction and reveal how they were implemented in this retrofit by sharing construction photos and details.
Note: The house is located in Park Slope, Brooklyn. The exact address will be shared with registrants.
