HEED (Home Energy Efficient Design)
HEED (Home Energy Efficient Design) is a set of strategies and practices aimed at making homes more energy-efficient. It involves thoughtful planning and construction techniques to reduce energy consumption for heating, cooling, lighting, and appliances. This includes proper insulation, airtight building shells, efficient windows, and strategic placement of windows for natural light and ventilation. The goal is to lower energy bills, decrease environmental impact, and improve indoor comfort by optimizing how a home uses and conserves energy. HEED principles guide the design process to create sustainable, comfortable, and cost-effective living spaces.
