HOUSE ORIENTATION AND SPACE HEATING CONSERVATION.
- Authors
Munro, John W.
- Abstract
The article measures the space heating fuel consumption data for south-facing versus north-facing houses on opposite side of the same street. Measurements were made in a test site in San Jose, California during the winter of 1974-1975. The author explains that the purpose of this measurement is to find out whether savings in fuel consumption exists. He reports that the heating fuel consumption rates for the south-facing test houses are lower than those for the north-facing houses.
