ABSTRACT

In Chapter, the temperature, humidity, ventilation, and lighting requirements of a residence to satisfy the needs of people were considered. This chapter concentrates on the heat loss from a residence so as to control the temperature requirements of its occupants. Further, since the heating needs for climate zones 4 through 8 (see Section II of Chapter 9) in winter are considerable, but such needs are minimal for climate zones 1 and 2, it is the colder zones that will be addressed here.
