deep energy retrofit– case studies
• Deep Energy Retrofit of 192 units, while occupied by residents
• 7 story, 500 affordable apartment units, built in the 1960’s, Boston MA.
• 73% reduction in whole building consumption.
DHW: Solar Hot Water
Ventilation: Renovation of existing system utilizing Aeroseal technology and Constant Air Regulator (CAR) Dampers. Installation of fresh air trickle vents.

Heating: 94.5% efficient condensing boilers and indirect hot water storage tanks with hydronic baseboards in each unit.
Cooling: Energy Star AC units, 7800 Btu/hour cooling capacity, 9.9 EER
approximately €150,000 less• Savings were invested in
Passivhaus Standard windows and additional insulation
Case studies / Cost benefit:
building to minimum standards v. optimal standards
what would be optimal standards?
what would be optimal standards?
and what are the actual costs?
what you really want to know

challengeswe have not cracked the utility allowance nut yettrades crews are still coming alongwe still have to prove we are meeting lower energy standards

case study: We are like mechanics…
1963 Ford Falcon : 32.5 MPG @ $.40 /gallon =
case study: The efficiency of these buildings needs to sustain the welfare of its residents…
2014 Honda Fit EV: 118e MPG @ $3.38/gallon=

Passive House principles revisited
• super-insulate/air seal (envelope), and utilize ERV
• orientation
• optimize window performance• utilize passive space conditioning• utilize high efficiency active strategies

we can not turn the buildings, => regulate solar gain (as best practically) with shading assemblies
