I'm working on a new net-zero residence in upstate NY and will be helping the architect consider options for floorplan, orientation, envelope, windows etc.
I'd appreciate thoughts (or a phone call!) from anyone with experience using eQUEST for residential design and especially with the SUNSPACE features.
Also, sources or details for wall assemblies and roof design would be helpful. This will be one story plus basement.
Lastly, any design guides for attached greenhouses would be appreciated.
Thanks!
~Bill
