About this product

Product Information

Home builders can contribute in many ways to reduce the use of products and processes that convert solid and liquid carbon containing materials into gaseous carbon. Everyone is now aware of the advantages of correctly oriented, well insulated houses with sensible ventilation and comfort systems. In this revised edition of Building Your Own Home, George Wilkie updates and adds a new section on energy and environmental efficiency. An increasing key factor in building homes now is the environmental efficiency of the building function and its materials. The aim in many local authorities is to mitigate against factors that reduce the quality of the natural environment. This revised edition includes in detail the practical steps that owner builders need to take to ensure their building meets the aims of local regulations in environmental efficiency. The new section covers areas such as power sources, water saving, recycling materials, heating and lighting systems. This incorporates windows, choosing the aspect of the house, insulation systems and building structure.

Very indepth guide
Hey guys, I found this to be a very indepth guide, which is great. However, I cannot say that the context is compelling due to my "picture orientated mind" lol. The text is quite small and all in black and white, which prevents it from being captivating- for me at least. Heaps of essential info though :)

Bible to house building. Very informative
When the title said "COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE" it is actually everything you need to know to build a house. Im currently studying toward my C Class builder license and this guide is very helpful to understand a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone that interested in house building.
