Come check out our Open House and Blowerdoor test at our Harlem Passive House renovation.
When: Friday, November 11, 2011, 4:30 PM
Where: 156 West 130th Street, Manhattan.
The New York Passive House community is kicking off the weekend of International Open Passive House days at Ecobrooklyn’s project in Harlem. The house is well underway and the Triple pane Rieder windows are in, the walls are insulated and sealed. This 3 family brownstone renovation is primarily using reclaimed building materials and only buys new when needed or crucial to make the house as efficient as possible (windows, mechanicals, airtight tapes and membranes). Everything else – studs, floors, walls – is salvaged.
Gennaro Brooks-Church, Director of Eco Brooklyn, and his team have been going strong and are ready for the blowerdoor test, last time we were able to find some mayor leaks so please join us and help us find the last few leaks.
Note that this is still a construction site, so dress appropriately and be ready to sign a liability waiver.
