Climate control

Get the most from your heating, ventilation and cooling (or HVAC) systems. BUILD shows you how to plan and improve climate control in your home.

Giving the right amount of attention to how you design and plan your home’s ventilation systems can make a huge difference not just to your electricity bills, but also to how comfortable and efficient your home is.

The ventilation checklist, which can be found in this category, covers the issues you need to consider to ensure your heating system will best serve your needs, now and into the future. The checklist will save you time, hassle and money. Print it out, read through the site and keep it on hand when discussing heating options with your heating expert, electrician or architect.
