The whole construction process is a funny mix of rocket
science and common scence, although the tehnology used costs more than in a
typical home, the benefits are huge:the investment tends to recover up to 1/3 of
the additional cost in time by heating and energy bill savings;in order to
build from ground-up or meet the retrofit standard some expensive materials are required that ensure a long
lasting period of exploitation; also, a careful design ensures that both the
beneficiary and the builders understand concepts like air-tightness and thermal
bridging.
