Brett St. Onge, a passive house inhabitant, enjoys a consistent 72-degree temperature indoors during winter while saving money and generating excess energy through solar panels.
Passive houses are constructed to minimize energy consumption year-round, featuring airtight designs, heavily insulated walls, and strategically placed, triple-paned windows to maximize solar gain.
Kevin Deabler explains that the large southern-facing window in passive houses isn't purely for aesthetic appeal, but strategically designed to absorb maximum sunlight during winter days.
St. Onge highlights the significant financial benefits, mentioning he has transferred $4,000 worth of energy credits to help pay for his parents' electricity and generated additional credits himself.
