Cool comfort<br />

When the heat hits, there are a few key points to keep in<br />

mind. Some are simple, immediate solutions, while others are<br />

great to bear in mind when rebuilding or renovating.<br />

Overheating in New Zealand homes<br />

is a common problem. However,<br />

passive cooling keeps your<br />

home at a comfortable, constant<br />

temperature throughout the hottest days and<br />

nights without the need for air conditioning.<br />

This system works by utilising shade and<br />

insulation to keep heat at bay during the<br />

summer, heat-storing materials such as<br />

concrete to absorb heat that it releases later<br />

in the day when it cools down outdoors, and<br />

breeze and air circulation inside your home to<br />

keep temperatures down.<br />

PASSIVE COOLING<br />

Passive cooling is something to be<br />

seriously considered during the design<br />

process on any rebuild or renovation project.<br />

Air conditioning can be expensive in the long<br />

run with electricity costs, while implementing<br />

sustainable options in the design of your<br />

home will save you and the planet. Good<br />

design strikes a balance between keeping in<br />

the warmth during the cooler months and<br />

keeping it cool during the warmer months, and<br />

providing ventilation in order to bring fresh,<br />

healthy air into your home.<br />

THERMAL MASS<br />

Materials with high thermal mass, like<br />

concrete, brick and stone, can be maximised<br />

for floors and walls. Combined with the right<br />

insulation in the right place, thermal mass<br />

materials will absorb heat as long as the air<br />

temperature is higher than the temperature<br />

of the thermal mass. Positioned where it will<br />

get direct sun in winter, but not in summer,<br />

will keep the air temperature cool during the<br />

warmer months.<br />

Many passive cooling solutions can easily<br />

be added in retrospect to existing homes, too.<br />

Shading can be achieved either by installing<br />

blinds on the inside or awnings over the<br />

windows on the outside. Other fixed shading<br />

options include eaves, pergolas, fixed louvres<br />

and covered balconies.<br />

EAVES<br />

Eaves should be designed to let as much light<br />

in as possible in winter, but keep the sun out in<br />

the summer. The specific design depends upon<br />

the amount of glazing in your home, which way<br />

it faces and the amount of sunlight you prefer<br />

to let in.<br />

SHADE<br />

Calling on the expert advise of a seasoned<br />

landscape designer can provide valuable<br />

shade. Taking the sun’s path into account<br />

clever planting will provide shade during<br />

the summer, while allowing in light during<br />

the winter. Deciduous vines and trees let<br />

winter sun through while still giving shade<br />

in the summer. Ground-cover plants keep<br />

surface and ground temperatures lower<br />

in summer and also reduces glare. A shaded<br />

courtyard adjacent to the main living area can<br />

act as a cool air well.<br />

VENTILATION<br />

Harnessing the natural flow of the air in<br />

your home is another way to keep rising<br />

temperatures at bay. One way is to orient<br />

your home to face the prevailing breeze or by<br />

using passive ventilation to encourage the air<br />

to circulate throughout your home. Opening<br />

doors, windows, vents and louvres lets the<br />

fresh air in while removing moisture and<br />

airbourne pollutants.<br />
