Space Heating Technology Atlas
E SOURCE, Jan 2004, Pages: 335
An extensive review of heating plants, from in-space heaters, furnaces, heat pumps, and boilers, to woodstoves, and fireplaces -- with emphasis on whole-building optimization -- is the cornerstone of this Atlas. Discussion of the interaction of human behavior, productivity, and comfort with space conditioning systems, end-use and market trends, codes and standards, and reducing heating loads through passive solar and state-of-the-art insulation, windows, sealing, and construction systems are included. Heat distribution systems and residential mechanical ventilation are also discussed in detail.
The resources section offers thorough lists of manufacturers and trade and professional organizations, a glossary, and an index.
