Passive Annual Heat Storage (PAHS) is a method of collecting natural heat all summer, when there’s more of it, and saving it until winter when it’s needed, effectively maintaining over time a constant effective natural resource base. Building materials are arranged in a special configuration to merely change the balance of natural heat flow of a conventional design. Heat is thereby directed from wherever we get it to wherever we want it, all without using machinery to make it work. With the rising cost of energy inclining more people towards sustainable living, all home builders should educate themselves about basic PAHS principles!
