Climate Design Priorities 1. Orient roof to protect from winter winds. 2. Rearrange interior spaces to block harsh external conditions. 3. Create openings on the southern facade to collect winter light and summer wind. 4. Create shading systems to block high summer sun and allow low winter sun. 5. Move outdoor space to the south and west sides of the building and provide a shading system. 6. Create more openings on the second level to collect winter sun.

Advantages -Primary indoor and outdoor spaces recieve sun late in the day throughout the year -Site very open to summer sun throughout most of the day -Vegetation helps to block a lot of the winter wind -Vegetation helps to shade the outdoor space during the summer afternoon Disadvantages -Roof orientation not in the optimum direction to block winter winds -Not enough windows on the southern facade to recieve adequate passive solar heating and cross ventialtion -Southern vegetation blocks almost all winter sun.

Sherburne Residence Summer Sun and Wind

187 Falmouth Road · Windham · Maine

Kitchen Dining Room

Bedroom

During the summer the primary indoor and outdoor spaces recieve a lot of passive solar heating after noon. The summer winds make the outdoor space more comfortable, but the lack of windows on the south facade make the interior spaces too hot due to the lack of crossventilation. The kitchen recieves almost no light except for the very early morning and the very late afternoon. The bedrooms are all on the east side of the house, but all but one have no eastern windows to recieve the morning light.

Sherburne Residence Winter Sun and Wind

187 Falmouth Road · Windham · Maine

Kitchen Dining Room

Bedroom

During the winter the site is always atleast partially in shade. The low sun angles make it so that many windows on the lower levels are useless when it comes to passive solar heating. The positioning of the internal spaces makes it so that many of the primary spaces are exposed to the cold winter winds, while recieving minimal passive solar heating from the winter sun. The form of the house, a saltbox, is not oriented in the optimum direction in order protect the internal spaces from the wind.

Sherburne Residence Solar Window

Solar Window This solar window is taken from the deck of the redesign plan. As one can see, the majority of the sun path is blocked by trees. These trees are deciduous, so during the summer, they would provide much wanted shade, and during the winter they would allow for sun to reach the building.

Reason For Price Discrepancy Wood- Wood is only partially bought, some is collected manually by home owner. Wood is also used more sparingly and not as frequently Gas- Gas is used less frequently than calculated (shorter showers, only using a few burners on grills, etc.) Electric- Some appliances are left plugged, drawing energy when not in use (Computer, TV, Stereo etc.)

Caulking is an efficient method to allow a homeowner to reduce infiltration. In combination with weatherstripping, air exchange can be reduced by 20%. One tube of caulking can seal two windows, which means a total of four tubes for the inoperable windows within the house. The product can be installed by the homeowner, because of previous home renovation experience.

CFLs use about 75 percent less energy than regular lightbulbs. They also typically last about 6 months longer. Typically they save about 6 dollars a year, and 40 dollars over thier life time. They also produce significantly less heat, making them safer to operate, and reducing cooling costs.

Night insulation of speciifc windows is a terrific way to reduce heating costs. Some of the large windows in the main spaces such as the lving and dining room allows a lot of heat to escape the house, and adding an R 5 barrier will drastically improve the quality of the spaces. Compared to the cost of installing high-quality windows and considering their ease of installment, they are clearly the superior option for reduicng heat loss through the windows.

A tankless water heater reduces the cost of hot water heating by almost 50% automatically. By removing the need to have a standing supply of hot water, the cost to keep unused water warm is drastically reduced. This specific model has the ability ot heat enough water to keep two showers running simultaneously, which is more than enough for the household.

Adding insulation helps to keep the home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Adding insulation reduces energy bills during the coldest and hottest times of the year. Rigid foam board is one of the most effective types of insulation for its thickness. Installation will be focused primarily by the roof, and the basement, which is partially unfinished, so the addition of insulatino will not be difficult or instrusive.

Calculations [48.174 + .167(Ag) + .3(666 - Ag)] (65 - 21.7) = 146 Ag [48.174 + .167(Ag) + .3(666 - Ag)] 43.3 = 2085.93 + 7.23(Ag) + 12.99 (666-Ag) = 2085.93 + 7.23Ag + 8651.34 -12.99 Ag= 10737.27 - 5.76Ag = 146 Ag 10737.27 = 151.76 Ag Area of South Glass Needed for Sun Tempering 70.752 = Ag 666/70.752 = 9.4% The above calculation shows that the house requires 9.4% of the house be covered in glass in order to collect the optimal amount of solar energy, without losing too much energy due to the high U value of the windows. This would require an additional 22.578 square feet of glazing be added to the southern facade. A 6 by 3.5 window added to the second story would fufill this need.

South Facade Redesign

Solar Redesign Additional window is placed on the second level to allow light to enter the main living spaces. The already existing windows on the southern facade penetrate into the bedroom and laundry/basement spaces, so the addtion of a window into the living space was the msot logical. It is placed high up due to the configuration of the furniture within the space, and so as to not provide direct glare into the inhabitants of the spaces.

Winter: During the winter the window shading would be opened during the day on the southern and western facades to allow as much solar gain as possible within the house. The northern and eastern shades would remain permanently closed during the winter. The southern and western shades would be pulled down during the night to insulate the house as much as possible against the cold winter temperatures.

Summer: Durnig the summer, the window shading would actually be used primarily during the day to block out the suprisingly hot Maine summer sun. This will allow the house to maintain the cool night temperatures for as long as possible. During the night, the shades would be raised to allow the windows to opened for ventialtion.
