5 1/2 light bulbs (550 watts) is what it takes to heat the new Blue2 house during the coldest day of the year.

CLAM's Blue2 is designed to be the first new certified Passive House in California, an affordable, energy efficient, low carbon house with superior health and comfort. Blue2 is now under construction. Over 140 people came to Tour 1 to see how a Passive House is insulated--now we’re ready for Tour 2!

Tour 2: See the Machine

See the integrated solar and heat recovery ventilator (HRV) mechanical system. The solar hot water system supplies 80% or more of the space and water heating requirements.
