Torcellini Residence
General Process
Design for Adaptability: - Infrastructure to allow for direct connection of wood-fired hot water to hot water loops (heating and domestic hot water). Ample wood is available on-site as a possible on-site renewable resource.
- Separate water system for toilets to allow for deep well water or future rain water collection
- Ability to connect portions of the house to battery systems as costs decrease for these systems.
- Wiring design is flexible to accommodate future DC appliances and electrical systems that could be directly connected to PV system.
