Summary: You've probably heard about 'Passive House' (or 'Passivhaus'). And like Phil and Chris, you can feel the buzz in the air from it within the green housing community. It's a building certification that is focused completely and only on reducing energy consumption. Join Chris and Phil as they summon their own energy to discuss this hot topic over a couple of cocktails. In the first part, they talk about what a passive house is, why you'd build one, and the history behind the passive house movement. (along with the recipe for a 'Man of the Moment') In the second part, they cover the three requirements a house must reach to claim the title of passive house. In the final part, Jesse drops by to share his experience attending the passive house training course, and then Chris and Phil explain the PHPP and the certification process. Of course no episode would be complete without a music selection from Phil. This time it's 'Time Fading Lines' by the Brooklyn band Woods. (Yes, Phil picked another Brooklyn band). Thanks for tuning in.
