Window Placement Strategy — FarmPal
South-facing windows provide free solar heat in winter (size them for 7-12% of floor area). Minimize north-facing windows to reduce heat loss. Deep window wells in thick earth walls create beautiful light shelves that bounce daylight deeper into rooms. Use high clerestory windows for ventilation hot air rises.
