Exterior HVAC Pods: Compact, Complete, and Code-ready. While developed with deep energy and carbon retrofit in mind, the Pod concept offers benefits for new builds also, especially for small dwellings where interior space is at a premium. See this and 2 other great talks April 9th in Toronto!

Why don't we build better? This talk argues that the challenge is often not a lack of technical knowledge, but the systems that shape how buildings are designed, constructed, and maintained. See this and 2 other great talks April 9. #passivehouse

Build faster, build smarter, build for the grid, says Michael Ridler. As buildings become more airtight and better insulated, the mechanical system is no longer an afterthought. It becomes the backbone of comfort, resilience, and energy performance. #passivehouse youtu.be/f7Er67_7tAM?...
