In a nutshell a Pretty Good House is a house that's as small as possible (remember The Not So Big House?); it is simple and durable but also well designed; it uses wood and plant - derived products as construction materials; it includes photovoltaic panels or is PV - ready; it should be insulated and air - sealed well enough that heating and cooling systems can be minimal and above all it is affordable healthy responsible and resilient.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: Pretty Good House A Common - Sense Approach To Energy - Efficient Building\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Mottram Emily\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Taunton Press Inc\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781641551656\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 224 Pages, Colour Illustrations And Photographs\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 7\/26\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Houses, Apartments, Flats, Etc","brand":"Mottram Emily","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49622417965361,"sku":"IN-G-9781641551656","price":26.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781641551656-pretty-good-house-a-common-sense-approach-to-energy-efficient-building","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
