Tremendous durability – Provides Climate Resiliency beyond basic Weatherization
These advanced thermal envelope benefits/controls are crucial for:
- 1Reducing of negative impacts caused by dirty fossil fueled energy creation.
- 2
More efficient allocation of regional renewable energy production
- 3More effective home electrification potential and comfort with Heat Pump technology
- 4Providing climate resilient and durable homes by reducing the harmful and negative impacts of Builing Stack Effect
- 5Reaching the state’s target of 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and ultimate goal of residential decarbonization
Building Stack Effect
Cooler air is denser than buoyant warm air, and this density difference creates a pressure that causes air to move, just like weather systems. As a result the air inside a home will stratify in layers due to density differences. Hot air rises to the top and cooler air falls to the bottom. And, like most homes, with leaks at the top/attic spaces warm air leaves through the higher openings and cold/heavy air enters through the lower openings. This pattern of air leakage through the thermal boundary of a building is called Stack Effect.
This uncontrolled air leakage/Stack Effect continually introduces moisture, mold, soil gases, allergens into the building environment, while wasting energy year round. In winter – rising warm air escapes out the top/attic and is replaced with cold air at the bottom. In summer – the opposite happens as dense cooler air sinks inside it pulls in hot/humid air through the attic ceiling and upper walls.
Mitigate the Stack Effect and become a Climate Champion in your home and for the planet!
