The physics of a house that costs less to live in, explained properly, including the parts that do not work. Heat only moves when there is a temperature difference. Engineers call it delta T, and nearly everything your house does to your bill comes back to it: where heat moves, where air moves, where water ends up, where the money leaks. Most of it is badly explained. We cover the low-tech end: thermal mass, ventilation, insulation order, night air, shading, drainage. Old engineering that still outperforms what replaced it. We also cover what does not work. Roughly one video in eight is a system we could not recommend, with the physics of why. No miracle fixes, and no number we cannot show the working for. Every figure comes from a named source, cited on screen. Presenter and narration are AI-generated under human direction and review, and every upload is labelled as synthetic. The book collects the arithmetic in one place. Link below. New video Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday.
