THe basement — which is 2/3 in ground and 1/2 exposed to the East — never gets above 65 or below 58. The ground floor is easy to keep cool in heat waves by managing day and night window positions.

The house is built on a slab, the southern end has a clay finish floor, it has Durasol walls on the south side, and there is a cob wall in the interior. We also installed an ecoroof on the south facing side, which helps reduce thermal gains on that area. I believe the thermal mass helps dampen the temperature swings, especially noticable in extreme weather. The west-facing windows are shaded by a big cedar tree and a (sprawling) wisteria, and the west-facing roof has solar water panels on it. With your same night-flushing strategy, our house remains comfortable, even when the outdoors is in the 90s.<br><div><br></div><div>
