An Approach to High-Performance Affordable Housing Using Point-Source Space Conditioning
- The Levy Partnership, Inc., New York, NY (United States)
This project explored the use of minisplit ductless heat pumps in combination with small through-wall transfer fans to provide space conditioning in small single-story homes including manufactured homes and homes built by Habitat for Humanity. The objectives were to reduce space conditioning energy consumption by 50% compared to the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code while maintaining home affordability and thermal comfort. The strategy to achieve this goal also included a highly efficient thermal envelope to reduce space conditioning loads.
