Overview
- Rabbits cannot tolerate temperatures greater than 30 degC.
- In this project we experiment with the six Passive House principles to keep internal temperatures as constant as possible.
- The six principles are:
- air tightness - air leaks result in excessive temperature gains or losses
- insulation - stops thermal leakage through roofs, walls and floors
- thermal mass - slows heat gain or heat loss
- double glazed windows - is the equivalent of insulation for windows
- north facing windows for heat gain
- eliminating thermal bridges
