Your gas furnace is costing you $400 a month. It doesn’t have to.
This book shows you exactly how to transform a typical American home built between 1985 and 2005 into a high-efficiency, low-cost, all-electric house — using the system European architects and builders have been installing for thirty years.
The result? One of the case studies in this book went from $400–450 a month in heating bills — with the thermostat rationed — to $90 a month, running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, at a constant comfortable temperature. The house held 68°F for an entire week in December while the owners were on vacation and outdoor temperatures dropped to 41°F. No furnace. No gas. No one home.
What this book covers:
✅ EIFS exterior insulation — how to eliminate thermal bridging in wood-frame walls, step by step, with American materials and brands (Dryvit, Sto, Parex USA)
✅ Radiant floor heating over OSB subfloor — the complete technical installation on wood structure, why there will never be a leak, and why every American floor finish is compatible
✅ Air-to-water heat pump — how to replace your gas furnace, central A/C and water heater with one system that produces 4 units of heat for every 1 unit of electricity (Chiltrix, Bosch, Mitsubishi, Daikin)
✅ HRV/ERV ventilation — how to bring in fresh air all day without losing a single degree of heat
✅ IRA 2022 tax credits — up to $4,400 back from the federal government every year you install qualifying equipment. How to claim it, what qualifies, and how to stack it with state utility rebates
✅ Three complete renovation budgets in USD — Scenario A (full gut renovation, $285K–$377K), Scenario B (energy + finishes, $174K–$239K), Scenario C (pure energy shield, $89K–$117K)
The numbers in this book are not estimates. They are real invoices from real projects built by the author — a European architect who has completed three full renovations with this system in the last two years alone.
This system already exists in Europe. Now you know how to build it in America.
